AI QR Barcode

If you ask chat GPT to make a qr barcode for a short text information, it will. 

You can ask it to make a qr barcode for a web page, the password for an internet connection and even a plain text message. 

Other ai systems will also draw a bar code for you if you word it correctly. Sometimes you have to specify that you want it sketched as an image because it will just give you link to a website that does it for you instead. 

This one was made by Gemini. 
You don't need AI to make a QR barcode for you, you can use a specialized app or website if you wish but it is cool that they can do that.

Saeeey Gaaaaar

In Italy the brand name Sega is a swear word. It means to use a saw but when you say sega to a person it means to M*sterbate. When they shouted out their logo at the start of sonic the hedgehog, it is like shouting W*nker. 
I'm guessing they would turn the volume down when they first turned on the console. 

In some forums people are debating if that is the reason they didn't shout the logo in sonic 3. There is no proof they stopped shouting their logo because of the Italians and the company itself never revealed why. 

If you're not Italian then it would have sounded futuristic and cool.

Michael Jackson Vitiligo

The singer Michael Jackson was asked by Oprah Winfrey in 1993 why he bleached his skin. He said he had Vitiligo, an auto immune disease. His immune system would attack his melanocyte cells in his skin and cause white blotches to appear. The melanocyte cells produce the dark pigment. 

The only way he could cover his condition is to have most of the pigment removed. 
His claim of Vitiligo was later confirmed by an autopsy and various doctor testimonies after he died. 

Up until that point, many people didn't believe him and thought he hated his own race. His Brothers later came forward and confirmed that he has a autoimmune skin disease that would otherwise cause him to look like he was disfigured. 

White people also get Vitiligo, it causes their beige skin to have white blotches like a leopard. In people with dark skin, the condition can leave them looking like an albino with bruises.

Kiwi fruits are not native to new Zealand, they're actually native to china and we're originally called Chinese goose berries but new Zealand farmers enjoyed growing the fruits and it was very popular there.

Kiwis grow on vines just like tomatoes and grapes. The vines on kiwis and last a long time; they're very durable.

Suicide more than Homicide

One thing that is consistent around the world is you're more likely to die from suicide and homicide. This is true regardless of what part of the world you live in. Usually you're statistically twice as likely to die from suicide than murder or manslaughter. 


After looking through some notible sources 50
Facts that should change the world by Jessica Williams and various world health organisation reports, suicide is one of the most common causes of death. 

In young people 15 to 29 years old , suicide is the leading cause of death. This is because young people don't usually die from heart disease or cancer. 

It is hard to clarify the exact rate because it varies by country, gender and age group but most sources agree that more the one percent of deaths world wide are from suicide. That's one in one hundred people.

Five Hundred mini drones

If you bought 500 mini drones (the ones that cost less than £10), and worked out how to make them all fly in tandem and connected them with strings to a parson, the person would be able to fly. 



It could even be possible to fly a person with 350 mini drones if the person was small and weighed 75kg or less and they jumped off a platform.
