Scuba-Suit-Clad Thief Steals Thousands of Dollars From Floating Disney World Restaurant in Heist Ripped Right Out of the Movies

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-09-22 05:40:03

When we hear of criminal activity at Walt Disney World, it’s not usually pertaining to an action sequence that feels like it’s come right out of a Disney movie itself. But that was apparently the case this week in Orlando, when over $10,000 was stolen from a Disney World restaurant by a scuba-diving criminal mastermind. WFTV9 (via Cinemablend) reports that in the early hours of today, an unidentified man staged a robbery at the Paddlefish seafood restaurant in Disney Springs, a shopping and din

Ghost kitchens are dying

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-23 13:25:26

Ghost Kitchens Are Dying. Here's the $15 Billion Lesson Every Restaurateur Must Learn. A ghost kitchen stripped away everything you think makes a restaurant a restaurant. No dining room. No servers. No storefront. No customers walking through the door. Just a kitchen. Four walls. Commercial equipment. And a phone that never stops ringing with delivery orders. Ghost kitchens exist only in the digital world. Customers find them on DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. They order through an app. Food

Local Restaurant Exhausted as Google AI Keeps Telling Customers About Daily Specials That Don't Exist

If you're trying to find out what a restaurant has to offer, you might look up its menu, or go to its Facebook page. Hell, you could call and ask. But that's all démodé. Why not query an AI chatbot, a piece of software notorious for inventing facts out of the tokenized ether of the internet, and treat its answer like the word of God?

Google’s rollout of Bluetooth audio sharing on Pixels has been a mess

TL;DR Google’s new Pixel Buds 2a lack Bluetooth audio sharing, highlighting a confusing and inconsistent implementation of the Auracast feature across Pixel devices. The feature is mysteriously disabled on the Pixel Buds Pro 2 when paired with a Pixel phone and artificially blocked on budget A-series phones. This haphazard approach hinders the adoption of the universal Auracast standard, which could solve audio sharing issues for all consumers. Google’s newly announced Pixel Buds 2a are a big

“No tax on tips” is an industry plant

In 2021, an amendment to raise the federal minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour and phase out the subminimum wage for tipped workers was attached to President Joe Biden’s pandemic-relief package. But the Senate parliamentarian removed the proposal from the bill, on procedural grounds. Bernie Sanders, then the Budget Committee chairman, forced a vote on the bill anyway, with the provision included. This decision sparked a furor among supposedly liberal lawmakers, according to Ari Rabin-Havt, S

Technological advancements have brought us many things. For paleontologists, it’s introduced the ability to probe softer material—skin, feathers, scales, and hair—found on fossilized creatures. And that’s resulting in some strange new findings about long-extinct animals, showing us that they’re even weirder than we imagined.
