10C here and going to 20C (room temperature) this aft. Clear sky, a beautiful fall day!
Hope you are all having a cooperative weather god in your area.

Have you guys ever heard of "Boston Dynamics"?


"Boston Dynamics"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Dynamics


They have extremely sophisticated robots "Atlas" (humanoid) and "Spot" (doglike).


Promotional videos - this is NOT CGI - this is real:

I saw a post on a Forum I thought I should share it with my "Thread" brothers... incredible how technology advanced... the sheer complexity of the hydraulics and actuators for those robots are staggering to comprehend...

Status: offline 		So in addition to spending the afternoon with rustysi on Saturday of this past weekend, our house visit on Sunday presented some good interior progress. The downstairs flooring is all installed with the LVP in dark colors. It will be throughout the ground floor, except in the master bath and the laundry room, which is also the entrance from the garage. We also have our kitchen and bathroom cabinets in place and ready to have the countertops installed soon! The master bath and upstairs guest bath will both have tile floors that were on hand but not yet installed. I'll share them when they are finished.

First picture is one corner with the LVP flooring to see the colors next to the baseboards and walls.

Thanks, GP! I am also very pleased with the way all the trim has turned out as well as the cabinets. All credit for these choices goes to Mrs. USSA!
