Elon Musk's backup battery took 140 ms to respond to crsis at a power plant
In South Australia, the Loy Yang power plant failed to meet a power cut. As a result, Elon Musk's installed backup battery powered up and gave the power plant an immediate 100 megawatts of power in just 140 ms (miliseconds). State Energy Minister, Tom Koutsantonis, stated, "That's a record and the national operators were shocked at how quickly and efficiently the battery was able to deliver this type of energy into the market." As a comparison, the power station on itself would need to take about half an hour to successfully power itself so that it meets the power cut. Elon Musk's battery did it in a few miliseconds, which is showing efficiency at its finest. The installation of the battery was a part of a project, conducted by Elon, where he promised to install a backup battery for the South Australian state government. The project consisted of a "100 days or free" guarantee. Musk finished the project by day 63.

Being Addicted to Video Games is Now Recognized As Actual Mental Illness
Gaming addiction will become a mental disorder officially recognized by the World Health Organization next year. The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations that is concerned with international public health. A beta draft is available online for ICD-11 which shows gaming addiction filed under Mental, behavioral or neurodevelopmental disorders\Impulse control disorders. Considering the organization hasn’t updated their International Classification of Diseases for since 1990, this is a pretty significant addition. “Health professionals need to recognize that gaming disorder may have serious health consequences,” says Vladimir Poznyak, from the WHO’s Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse. According to a recent study which included 19,000 participants in the UK, US, and Canada, only 2-3% showed symptoms of gaming addiction which include anxiety, lack of control, antisocial behavior, and more. Gaming is comparable to any other human hobby or activity which can also turn into an addiction. These negative effects don't apply to casual gaming which brings enjoyment and kills boredom.

The world's first flying car race will be held in 2019
The flying cars are a futuristic concept that has already attracted the attention of a number of companies and designers all over the world. Even Airbus is already developing taxi cars that can fly. It is a matter of time that such vehicles are accessible to the general public. But this is unlikely to happen before the start of the next decade. Australian startup Alauda is working on the ambitious plan to hold the first racing car race in 2019, TheVerge reported.
Their engineers have also developed their own prototype of a flying car called Alauda Mart 1 Airspeeder and will begin testing with it early next year. The company has set the ambitious goal of creating the equivalent of "Ferrari" for flying cars and the main focus in their machine is speed and aerodynamics. Alauda Mart 1 Airspeeder is powered by an electric motor and has the form of a racing car.
The machine has four units with a total power of 50 megawatts, powered by the same battery in the Tesla Model S. Thanks to that, the Alauda Mart 1 Airspeeder is able to reach a top speed of over 200 km / h. The Australian company plans to attract the attention of all other brands that work on such projects. The launch of the first racing car race can popularize the idea of these machines among more people.
Edward Snowden made an app to protect your laptop
Haven, an open source project made by Edward Snowden, has just been released recently. Its main aim is to protect everyone's privacy, by using some of the effective tech inside any phone. So here's how it works: You install Haven on a burner android phone, and you keep it near something important like your laptop, then it logs any kind of activity around the laptop, like motion, acceleration or light. It even takes photos and records sound, then it sends out notifications to your main phone in case someone is messing with your laptop. None of those logs are stored in the cloud obviously, and the messaging is end-to-end encrypted. Snowden mentions that most phones now have 3 microphones, and the iPhone has acceleration and barometric pressure sensors. Snowden's goal with this is to use the capabilities of the average phone to protect privacy instead of it being used for the opposite.

PnB Rock - Catch These Vibes
PnB Rock, 2017 XXL Freshman, released an album recently titled Catch These Vibes. Overall I enjoyed the tape, it's intimidating with 18 total tracks, but totaling out to be a little bit over an hour of music. Critics were really hoping for PnB to reach a little farther into his sound with this album but sadly we didn't get that. He sticks with the sound that's been working for him so far and there isn't much new content here. Same sound different lyrics. The bubbly beats and synth rap reminds me of a Ty Dolla Sign work. Another glaring flaw seems to be the direct inspiration from Fetty Wap. A lot of the beats sound like something Fetty had to personally allow PnB to use because I'm sure they've been used on a Fetty project in the past. The lyrics and singing also reflect Fetty. The balance of the album is good, PnB fluctuates between R&B and Rap with smooth transitions.
Overall I give this album a 6 / 10. Could have done with less Fetty sounds and less Ty sounds, but I can't complain I enjoyed the album.
You can give this album a listen here:
Tampa Bay Buccaneers player suffers brutal leg injury, video shows
Injuries are a common site in professional sports, especially football, but the broken leg that Adarius Glanton received was extremely brutal. There is a video depicting exactly what happens to Glanton as his leg snaps as him and his fellow teammate collide in attempt to sack the opposing teams quarterback, "Glanton was injured after he collided with fellow teammate Robert Ayers while the two attempted to sack Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan. Like Glanton, Ayers was also injured in the play." The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had very bad luck this season with injuries. Aside from Glanton and Ayers several other players were injured, "safety T.J. Ward, tight end O.J. Howard, right guard J.R. Sweezy, wide receiver DeSean Jackson and safety Justin Evans were also injured in the team’s 24-21 loss Monday night against the Falcons."
OKCupid will make people use real names on their dating profiles
True love certainly does not start with fake names don't you agree?
So normally a website dedicated to the discovery of true love can not include fake usernames such as "LoverDestroyer" or "CuteBunny"..
OkCupid agrees and has decided that there is, a lot in a someone's name. So they are removing usernames and starting with real names. They will begin with a test group, and later it will be rolled out to all users.
OkCupid notes in a blog post that the decision is actually for users sakes. "We've discovered that real names actually work best, better than usernames when it comes to connecting with people," the dating site wrote.
OkCupid assures that it still won't collect full names, but rather encouraging members to put forth the name that they'd like to be called when they meet face-to-face. Also, it's a pain to come up with a good username and hard to remember!
CounterStrike: Global Offensive Hacks
Counter Strike Global Offensive is by far one of the most played games by MPGH-ians and also one the games we all like to hack on. However, we all know hacking is risky and also very tempting. You may download a hack off MPGH and be tempted to just go gun blazing with aimbot. This can be a problem since when you use aimbot, it can be very obvious to other players. The hack undecked by C0re, Riddl3 and Swiftik is a minimal Counter Strike Global Offensive. Its purpose is simple. It is a visual hack designed so you can locate all the enemies and your team mates. It’s got boxes, snaplines, glow and team glow. While the hack may be just visual, there is still probabilities that you may receive a VAC ban. Therefore, it is crucial you always check the undecked thread for updates as well as the Counter Strike Global Offensive section. As always, happy hacking!

5-Year-Old Reports The Grinch To Police
Five-year-old TyLon Pittman was watching YouTube videos of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” in his home in Mississippi when he suddenly became afraid. He reached for the house phone and called 911 to report an urgent tip. “I just want to tell you something. Watch for that little Grinch. Because the Grinch is gonna steal Christmas, okay?” TyLon said on the 911 call, which was posted on the Clarion-Ledger website. The 911 dispatcher asked the child if he was home alone. His father quickly came to the phone and apologized for his son’s call to the police in Byram, Miss. “No, no it’s fine,” the 911 dispatcher said with a laugh. “He called in saying the Grinch was trying to steal his Christmas.” TyLon’s brother and mother were out shopping when it happened, and learned about it two hours later when there was a knock on the door about 9 p.m. Saturday. TyLon’s brother, TeDera Graves answered the door and saw a police officer standing there. “I cracked the door and saw the uniform and she explained to me, ‘I’m looking for a little boy who was watching the Grinch?’ ” said Graves. “We called him out and he explained to her what happened.” The officer told Graves that normally police don’t respond to these kinds of calls. Graves grabbed his phone and started recording as the officer told TyLon that she’d protect him from the Grinch. “She said she thought it was the cutest thing,” Graves said. “She wanted to pay him a visit to let him know his Christmas will be safe.” Then the police department took it a step further. They invited TyLon and his family to tour the police station on Monday. When the 5-year-old arrived, they surprised him with a real-life Grinch (really someone dressed in a Grinch costume) who was in a police car. They told TyLon to lock him up. TyLon took the Grinch by his hand and put him in a holding cell and locked the door. The boy then reluctantly let him out, and the Grinch commended TyLon on his bravery. Five-year-old TyLon Pittman of Mississippi called 911 to report the Grinch to police. On Dec. 18, officers allowed TyLon to “put the Grinch behind bars." (Facebook/TeDera Dwayne Graves II) Graves said that even before this happened, TyLon wanted to be a police officer, and that he does even more so now. Graves described his brother as an outgoing kindergartner who regularly makes his family laugh. Graves said his family has enjoyed the attention the 911 call has brought, and thinks the whole episode is pretty amusing. “We thought it was funny, we were shocked he actually did it,” Graves said. “But we had a talk with him about when it’s OK to call 911.”

Always looking forward to this weekly news.
Any opinions on gaming addiction? Will some country open a hospital where they treat gamers...?
I guess I can get a disability check for playing games now, brings a whole new meaning to making money playing games...
