No sooner do we learn that sex robots are a real thing than we learn they can be hijacked to kill people. A cyber-security lecturer tells Newsweek, “Hackers can hack into a robot or a robotic device and have full control of the connections, arms, legs and other attached tools like in some cases knives or welding devices.” And in case you’re wondering, the technology has been moving along at a shocking pace, and sex robots are thought by some to be the future of sex tourism.

Security flaws have already been found in Bluetooth-enabled sex toys, which can be controlled remotely by hackers.

Robot bartenders are serving drinks at the Tipsy Robot in Las Vegas. They’re programmed to pour exact drinks, which limits the fun of bellying up to a heavy-handed, free-pouring bartender.

The list of finalists for induction to the NFL Hall of Fame was cut from 27 to 15. We won’t know who is getting in until the night before the Super Bow, but former Bear, Brian Urlacher is still in the hunt. Obviously, he’s in some pretty select company. Edgerrin James,  Isaac Bruce, Steve Hutchinson, Joe Jacoby, Everson Walls, Tony Boselli, Ty Law, Alan Faneca, Ray Lewis, John Lynch, Kevin Mawae, Randy Moss, Terrell Owens and Brian Dawkins all made it as well. A few senior finalists are in the mix, too. Jerry Kramer, Bobby Beathard and Robert Brazile.

Out of all those names they’ll only pick up to 8. That happens on Feb, 3rd.

The Bears have it all HERE.

Bastille suck out a documentary of the making of the album “Wild World” on New Years Eve. Here’s the bands Facebook announcement.

“Hello you lot.

Before everyone gets stuck into their NYE nights, we just wanted to say to everybody who’s come to our gigs, listened to our tunes, seen us at a festival, or supported us in any way in 2017 – thank you all so, so much. We feel like a bunch of incredibly lucky morons.

There’s loads of new stuff to come from us in 2018, but for now – while we’re finishing up our 3rd album and our 4th mixtape – we’re excited to present “Help Me Chase Those Seconds”, a film about the making of “Wild World” that was shot & directed by our friend Tom Middleton. It’ll be up to stream on our VEVO page today at 3pm BST. 

Hollywood Forever, the cemetery where Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell is buried, sent a letter to Cornell’s widow asking that fans stop taking videos at the gravesite. Cornell’s management team tweeted, “We understand that some of Chris’s fans wish to video their visits at Hollywood Forever, but we’ve had confirmation that it’s against their policy. We’d like to thank everyone for their understanding.”

The cemetery says their primary concern is to protect the privacy of other families with loved ones buried in the cemetery, and says in its letter that Cornell’s fans are “always respectful of his space.​”
