There's something retro about the act of "flipping the bird." I feel like its heyday was in the '70s and '80s.

This guy flipped off a state trooper in Vermont in 2018, and got arrested in retaliation. The charge was dismissed and the state just settled his lawsuit for $175k. Freedom of speech wins! Good for this guy and the ACLU for holding them to account. 🖕

AP News · He flipped off a trooper and got charged. Now Vermont is on the hook for $175,000Vermont has agreed to pay $175,000 to settle a lawsuit on behalf of a man who was charged with a crime for giving a state trooper the middle finger in 2018. The lawsuit was filed in 2021 by the Vermont chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of Gregory Bombard, of St. Albans. It says Bombard’s First Amendment rights were violated after an unnecessary traffic stop and retaliatory arrest in 2018. The settlement announced Wednesday by the ACLU of Vermont says the state has agreed to pay Bombard $100,000 and $75,000 to the ACLU and the Foundation of Individual Rights and Expression for legal fees.

! Quite Interesting

Italian Youtube mechanics 'Carmageddon' claim to have made a car that uses AI not for “self driving” but for “auto-gesticulation”.

The driver can concentrate on operating the car while the onboard computer uses speakers and robotic hands to demonstrate its displeasure at other road users.

I wrote about the podcast Flipping the Bird for tonight's Quarantine Control on @damagecontrolblog. It may or may not be exactly what you're thinking. Yes, it's Elon Musk related.

More reasons to leave Twitter means more people showing up here, which is a good excuse to (re)introduce yourself.

So, hello! I'm Becky. I'm a patent attorney in Scotland. I used to be a physicist working on gravitational wave detectors but academia didn't suit me. I like books, puzzles, cooking, long walks, films, cats, gaming (video and tabletop), wine, and even people.
