WHAT DO YOU THINK, RIDLEY SCOTT?

I really hope that if aliens decide to invade the Earth, they don't choose Halloween or carnival, because I'm afraid people would begin taking photos to them in spite of getting away!

THE GENDER PAY GAP EXPLAINED IN A SINGLE VIDEO

david
We’ve all heard about the infamous "gender pay gap": that sinister conspiracy where men supposedly earn more "for doing exactly the same job," because obviously, the evil patriarchy just loves paying women less out of sheer cruelty, keeping them firmly under its thumb—despite the fact that this practice is literally illegal in almost every developed country.

But fine, let’s play along with that idea for a moment: men earn more ON AVERAGE than women, but honestly, have you ever stopped to think why men statistically take home higher salaries? Or do you just buy into it because it’s a mantra repeated endlessly? Maybe—just maybe—it’s because men are out there freezing their asses off on deep-sea fishing boats, getting tossed around by violent storms, handling chains heavier than your car, or sweating away on oil rigs and construction sites, risking their lives every single day. Perhaps it’s related to voluntarily choosing insanely dangerous, physically exhausting, and generally miserable jobs that pay better precisely because no sane person would do them willingly.

So yes, ladies and gentlemen, a pay gap certainly exists. And it seems firmly located in places where most people wouldn't set foot for a million dollars, let alone for 20 or 30 grand a month. But sure, go ahead and keep believing the gap is just the patriarchy flexing its muscles from comfy offices.

And this, dear friends, is the cold, wet, gritty truth behind the famous pay gap.

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.
