The death and funeral of Huskisson led to wide reporting on the opening of the railway, for the first time making people around the world aware that cheap and rapid long-distance transport was now possible, if dangerous.

the opening of the lmr was definitely a trip, the first day of the first passenger railway in the world managed to kill an mp, provoke a riot, and finish up at walking pace because the sun had gone down and nobody had thought to put lights on the trains, but apparently there really is no such thing as bad press.

The word "domotics" (and "domotica" when used as a verb) is a contraction of the Latin word for a home (domus) and the word robotics.[1] The word "smart" in "smart home" refers to the system being aware of the state of its devices, which is done through the information and communication technologies (ICT) protocol and the Internet of Things (IoT).[8]

the word "robot" comes from the Czech word for "corvée" or "serf labor," which is similar to the word for "work" in other Slavic languages, so there's the etymological connection there

Delivery health (デリバリーヘルス, Deribarii herusu), also known as "shutchō health" (出張ヘルス) or by the abbreviation "deriheru" (デリヘル), is a category of sex work in Japan that offers a "call girl" or escort service, dispatching sex workers to their customers' homes or to hotels.[7][8][9] Delivery health businesses do not typically operate out of physical premises, instead employing freelancers, and advertise through handouts sent to mailboxes, posters in telephone booths, public toilets and similar places, usually in large cities within Japan; advertising is also conducted through a number of websites online.[citation needed]

In 1947, Raytheon built the "Radarange", the first commercially available microwave oven.[17] It was almost 1.8 metres (5 ft 11 in) tall, weighed 340 kilograms (750 lb) and cost about US$5,000 ($58,000 in 2020 dollars) each. It consumed 3 kilowatts, about three times as much as today's microwave ovens, and was water-cooled.

"Three Don't Knows": Based on Zhang's alleged lack of knowledge about how much money he had, how many soldiers, and how many women in his harem.[32][14]
"72-Cannon Chang":[35] This nickname might also have been connected to the alleged length of his penis.[36]

The current world's longest meat hot dog record holder measured 203.8 metres (669 ft) and was manufactured by Novex of Paraguay in 2011. Sara Lee Corp. made a hot dog, 1,996 feet (608 m) long, in commemoration of the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Guinness World Records does not reflect this record in any of its publications as of 2006. Speculation surrounding the 1996-foot record is that although the hot dog was most likely continuous, the bun (an integral part of the hot dog unit) was not. In October 2017 the town of Flensburg in Germany claimed to have manufactured the World's longest hot dog with 218 metres (715 ft).
