I totally love the irony of people saying they are LEAVING @twitter when they say it ON Twitter. GO ALREADY! And to all the people that said they were moving to Canada… you can go too! I’m sorry… did I hurt your feelings?

Sorry, been out of action for awhile, recovering from Spinal surgery which turns out to have been more complicated than I had anticipated. I am alive! Looking forward to reconnecting with my Twitter friends.

Tweet for Real: Check out mybirdbuddy.com. It's an automated bird feeder that uses bluetooth and WiFi to grab video and stills of any wild bird who enters the feeder and it uses its markings and songs to identify the bird species. Pretty cool!

If At First You Don't Succeed... Start-Up "Kernel" peddled its brain scanning helmet to 228 investors and all of them passed. Until #229 which led to an investment of $110 million. The helmet is a wearable that analyzes routine brain functions.

'Oumuamua: Think out of the box. Astronomer Avi Loeb thinks it's an extraterrestrial creation. He says if you want to search for ET don't look for signs of intelligent life (SETI) - look for signs of stupid life - industrial pollution from a civilization that has self destructed.

2 QUINTILLION - That's roughly the current number of Covid-19 virus particles circulating around the globe. And they are minuscule - all 2 quintillion could fit inside one Coke bottle. Estimates were calculated by mathematicians at Bath University in the UK.

HOMETOWN HERO! Dr. Greg Zollner is a kidney doctor who had kidney disease. He needed a transplant. Years ago, his colleague, Dr. Chris Frankel told him he would give him a kidney when he needed it. He kept his word. The surgery happened 6 weeks ago and both are healthy! @6abc

A New Non-Binary Video Game: The latest version of "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War" is indeed written in binary... but not the game's characters. Players can choose to be male, female, no-gender, or "Gender Classified".

Tik Tok Jackpot! Susquehanna International Group, quantitative options trading firm based in Philadelphia, invested $5 million in TikTok parent company Byte Dance in 2012. With likely new partners Oracle & Walmart, company value today is estimated at $15 billion! That's ROI.

Fauci or Fugaku? Simulation experiments on the world's fastest computer - Fugaku - show that plastic face shields, often worn by service workers, are almost completely useless in blocking coronavirus droplets. Japan's Fugaku can run 415 quadrillion computations per second.

Better than a Watchdog? Amazon has introduced a security drone that flies around inside your house when you're gone and will attack any object that starts to move in the house. You program its path in advance and it will send you live video of the intruder. It works with Ring.
