Naked man used forklift to break into business, then stopped for a shower

Ever want to drive a forklift through a barbed wire fence, break into a business, strip naked and take a shower? No? Well, then you’re nothing like Joseph Michael Bieniek, a 24-year-old Florida man who was arrested for doing that very thing this past Friday.

To say that Bieniek’s actions were odd would be a massive understatement. According to local news reports, the 24-year-old began his hijinks by entering the warehouse of United Plumbing and nabbing one of the company’s golf carts. He drove the cart a short distance to a nearby business called iMold Water Damage & Mold Restoration. That’s when things took a turn for the surreal.

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Netflix’s The Witcher is one of the most anticipated TV series of the season. It’s not supposed to be the next Game of Thrones, they tell us, but it absolutely looks like the kind of TV series that targets the Thrones audience first and foremost. We still don’t have an official release date for the series, aside from a late 2019 estimate, and we also don’t have a trailer, but Netflix did just release one more teaser in anticipation of the full trailer.

It’s now been over a month since an amateur astronomer spotted what is now believed to be the second interstellar object ever observed by mankind. The gassy chunk of space debris is thought to be a comet, and it’s been named 2I/Borisov in honor of its discoverer, Gennady Borisov.

Now, with the comet getting so much attention in the astronomy world, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope is finally getting in on the action. On October 12th, Hubble targeted the comet and scientists were able to snap several images of it, providing us with our best look yet.

T-Mobile and Sprint just got one step closer to merging, after the Federal Communications Commission voted to approve the deal on a party-line vote, with Democrats on the commission voting against the move.

The same day that Democratic FCC commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel wrote in an op-ed for The Atlantic on Wednesday that the merger would be a net negative for consumers and drive up prices, an FCC official confirmed to The Verge that the merger was approved.

Google earlier this week released an impressive Google Maps feature I said I hope I’ll never need to use: Improved voice-guided navigation for blind and visually impaired people. A few days later, Google released another accessibility feature that I hope I’ll never be forced to use. Just like the Google Maps feature, this one isn’t only targeting people with disabilities, and might actually come in handy in a bunch of different scenarios.

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Head-up displays, also referred to as HUDs, are pretty awesome because they display important information right on your windshield, just below your line of vision. This way you can see your speed, navigation directions, and more without averting your eyes from the road.

Just over a day after Apple seeded iOS 13.1.3 and iPadOS 13.1.3 to everyone who isn’t part of Apple’s beta program, the beta crowd has received an update of its own. The third beta releases for both iOS 13.2 and iPadOS 13.2 rolled out on Wednesday, and as of right now, the public beta is available to everyone as well.

The headlining feature of iOS 13.2 is, of course, the Deep Fusion camera technology that makes medium-light photos look sharper than ever before, but you can also get your hands on a selection of new emojis if you download the new beta. That said, there are also plenty of bug fixes, and that’s really the priority here.

This stunning new retro portable can play every Game Boy game ever made

%name Articles of Interest by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

I’ve been a huge fan of video games my entire life, but I’m not sure I ever spent more time with a single device than I spent with my Game Boy Advance in the early 2000s. Not only were there countless classic titles released exclusively for the GBA, from Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire to The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap to Advance Wars to Metroid Fusion, but it was also home to some incredible re-releases, including all the best 2D Mario games.

Thanks to emulators, I’ve had a chance to go back and replay some of my favorites and discover several great titles I missed the first time around, but nothing compares to actually holding a Game Boy in your hands and playing games the way they were meant to be played. And that’s why I desperately need the Analogue Pocket.
