In late August, a resident of Mobile, Ala., posted a video on Nextdoor, a social media app that advertises itself as a place for neighbors to connect. The clip, from a home security camera, showed a man—”Race- black Age- teenager or early 20s”—taking a leaf blower from the poster’s property. “Let’s set up a sting and I will have my AK-47 ready for the next one,” a neighbor responded.

Well, in today’s edition of Oh My God Technology Is Moving At A Terrifying Pace And, Also, Goddamn I’m Oldℱ, there are rumors circulating that... Read more â€ș

Elon Musk’s Tesla Bot won’t make your sci-fi nightmares come true but is still a cause for concern
