The microchip implants that let you pay with your hand

Patrick Paumen causes a stir whenever he pays for something in a shop or restaurant.

“The reactions I get from cashiers are priceless!” says Mr Paumen, a security guard from the Netherlands.

We might want to be wary about purported new info from Hunter’s hard drive

On April 7, I wrote a post about the fact that Jack Maxey, a man who once worked with Steve Bannon at the latter’s War Room, was contending that he had successfully recovered 450 gigabytes of deleted documents and photos from Hunter Biden’s infamous hard drive.

Women can be strip-searched by trans officers who were born male, say police

Female suspects can be strip-searched by police officers who were born male but identify as women – and could be accused of a hate crime if they object, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.

New guidelines issued to forces around the country state: ‘Chief Officers are advised to recognise the status of Transgender colleagues from the moment they transition, considered to be, the point at which they present in the gender with which they identify.
