"Smart" Electronic Defences:

- Around five past every hour following the hourly news - Radio NZ National repeats a COVID-19 health message "from your Government" - I note that this message - tailored for your well-fare - is just about - word-for-word - the same as those run on British LBC radio in London. - Who copied who?

My old 110 kg cat eats more than I do .. Oops I need to deduct my weight from the moving analogue bathroom scale reading eh - that's a five kilo old queen cat .. but she still eats a lot .. Definitely she gobbles down much more raw hearty-beef and veal mince than I do 😺.

- From time to time a sneak-thief feline from across the paddock creeps-in through the cat-flap and cleans up Lulu's bowl .. my cobber 'J' says that I need to modernise and get an electronically barred feline security door that releases by scanning the cats security ID chip .. but that would entail taking the old lady to the nearest vet by appointment .. to have her modified.

- and then I'd have to wait for the COVID-19 virus lock-down to end so that a builder might install the battery powered A.I electronic RFID security entry block into my laundry door .. & then I'd have to ask someone like 'J' to program the RFID electronics and test the function by crawling through the wee door - Too much trouble & expense eh - easier just to put the cat's bowl into the fridge ..

So ...  'No names - no pack drill'  but a friend who shall be nameless - who loves his electronics - his home has multiple surveillance cameras recording all movement, - intruder alert lighting, burglar alarms - voice activated room lighting & other multi-functions etc all remotely accessed and viewable-changeable by 'phone from anywhere on the planet ..

"Nn-npd' had a bike .. no ordinary bike but a customised quality go anywhere machine that he had extensively upgraded with heat-seeking satellite guided radar-assisted fire control - information technology and direction finding - distance travelled and average speeds computer-recorded - constant video caching with full hi-fi sound recording - strobe/security blinking lights, - cruise control and automatic tyre re-inflation and auto-rain detecting wipers .. Yeah all right - I'm exaggerating about the tyres & wipers.

.. It got stolen.

Naturally Nn-npd's electronic virtual security recorded the theft - Scumbag sneaking up drive into garage - mounting 'Pegasus' and riding-off. - Yes the cameras recorded this costly incursion but the low angle sunlight produced only a silhouette I.D image .. well even low IQ scumbags know enough to pull their hoodies down over their pinheads .. I bet the creep wasn't even wearing a certified bicycle safety helmet.

PEGASUS Was Most Wonderful To Behold:

OF COURSE naturally the police are largely disinterested by-standers to this event - despite having used Nn-npd's satellite linked & atomic-clock timed security video virtual recording previously to calculate that a sadly departed motorcyclist had accelerated to over 180 kph from a traffic stop before terminal impact .. clever eh.

- Mind you .. if you leave your electric remote control garage door wide open some scumbags see that as an open invitation.

- What is the point of an infra-red camera that can record a virtual image of low-life creeping around your house - Wouldn't a locked gate that physically limits entry be better?

LOCK YOUR BLOODY DOORS.
.. especially if you have guns or valuables at home

Virtual Security: Having the urgent police contact number in your phone contacts list ..

Real Security: Four armed DPS Police officers in two cars outside your home with engines running 24/7 .. Link:

And further - dare I note that a recent study points-out the bloody obvious that a firearm IS more effective than Bear Spray against Grizzly Bear and Black or Brown or Kodiak or Polar ursis ..
