RICHARD DAWSON'S KISSES

The other day, I stumbled upon a video online that really caught my attention. It was a clip from a TV show where the host kissed all the female contestants on the lips, and it all seemed completely natural. Something that, nowadays, would be almost unimaginable. After digging a little deeper, I found out it was Richard Dawson, the host of the hit game show Family Feud in the '70s and '80s.

Dawson’s unique habit of kissing contestants wasn’t planned from the start. It began spontaneously when one particularly nervous contestant stepped up to play. To calm her down, Dawson gave her a kiss on the cheek. As luck would have it, she went on to win the game. From then on, the gesture became a sort of good luck charm, evolving into a tradition that became one of Dawson’s trademarks.

Of course, even back then, not everyone saw this practice in a positive light. There were critics who questioned whether it was appropriate or felt it crossed a line. However, the majority of American society viewed these kisses as something charming and harmless, and Family Feud remained a beloved program for audiences.

It’s fascinating how something that seemed so normal at the time now feels surprising or even uncomfortable. Each era has its own way of interpreting relationships and social gestures, and Richard Dawson’s story perfectly reflects how society back then embraced a more laid-back and spontaneous perspective. Perhaps that’s why, for many, those times carry a certain nostalgic charm that’s hard to replicate today.

ABU DHABI POLICE ARE ALREADY LIVING IN 2050

Abu Dhabi Police just unveiled their latest patrol vehicle at Gitex Global 2024, and it looks like something straight out of the future: the Magnum MK1, an autonomous, armored, drone-equipped 4x4.

This cutting-edge vehicle is primarily electric but also has hybrid petrol support. It can reach speeds up to 150 km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds, and is bulletproof against ammunition up to 7.62 mm. It carries three officers and securely transports one detainee in a specially designed internal cell.

Among its most advanced features are integrated systems for audio, video, and vital-sign monitoring, autonomous off-road navigation, radio and cellular communication capabilities, surveillance drones, infrared cameras providing 360-degree vision, specialized lighting, advanced geolocation, anti-jamming protection, and even an internal workstation with a panoramic screen to manage operations directly from the vehicle.

This futuristic patrol car will be fully manufactured in Abu Dhabi and is expected to hit the roads officially by 2028—a real leap into the future for Emirati law enforcement.

BORN IN RUSSIA

Being born here or there, into a rich or poor family, is so incredibly random that sometimes we forget just how much life resembles a roll of the dice—one we don't even get to throw ourselves. Think about it: coming into this world is literally the universe’s biggest lottery, and it's absurd how something we have absolutely zero control over defines us from day one.

Some people land straight into mansions with swimming pools, surrounded by privileges they never even asked for. Others are born between bare walls and leaking roofs, facing limited chances from the moment they open their eyes. And here's the kicker: no one earned the conditions they're born into. There’s no merit, no initial effort—just pure chance.

Whether we're born lucky or unlucky massively shapes our paths: education, health, opportunities, even our dreams and aspirations. Sure, there are those who preach that "where there’s a will, there’s a way," but reality is much harsher. Our randomly assigned starting point can either turbocharge our lives or slam on the brakes right from the start.

THE KUNGFU BOT FROM UNITREE ROBOTICS COULD REPLACE YOUR BOUNCER

Unitree Robotics is a Chinese company specializing in advanced robotics. Founded in 2016 by Xingxing Wang and based in Hangzhou, the company gained fame for its robotic dogs, known for their agility, stability, and affordability compared to competitors like Boston Dynamics.

Although these robots are often marketed as tools to assist humanity in research, industry, and consumer applications, the truth is that they could also be deployed in warfare. Best not to dwell on that too much—like drones, they are a total game-changer.

For now, let’s focus on Unitree Robotics' latest masterpiece: the Kungfu BOT, a bipedal version of their robotic dogs with a humanoid appearance and the ability to perform an impressive 720-degree spinning kick. Imagine facing one of these if you step out of line at a bar!
