I bet his wife’s not pleased: Multiple Disney employees part of 108 arrested in human trafficking sting; report

Authorities have arrested 108 people in a human trafficking ring and three of them were employees of Disney while another was a retired judge, according to police. One other suspect was allegedly an employee of Disney, but the corporation denied it while confirming the other three suspected criminals were, in fact, employees of Disney.

Disney+ vs Netflix — South African libraries and features compared

A Disney+ subscription in South Africa will offer less than half the titles available on Netflix but boasts superior features at a lower price.

Disney+ is launching locally on 18 May 2022, with a monthly price of R119 or an annual subscription of R1,190.

Walt Disney Africa recently provided a complete list of all of the content that will be available on the service. These include popular movies and TV shows from Disney’s Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and National Geographic properties. It will also boast a wide range of adult-focused movies and TV shows from its Star catalogue, including content created by FX, 20th Century Studios, and 20th Century TV.

The linked article helps highlight many of those differences for South Africans. What we don’t see though is what epic movies may be available on Disney that South Africa’s are currently not getting on Netflix, as that could be a decider for many.

UCSB and Disney Find Out How High a Robot Can Possibly Jump


Over the last decade or so, we’ve seen an enormous variety of jumping robots. With a few exceptions, these robots look to biology to inspire their design and functionality. This makes sense, because the natural world is full of jumping animals that are absolutely incredible, and matching their capabilities with robots seems like a reasonable thing to aspire to—with creatures such as ants, frogs, birds, and galagos, robots have tried (and occasionally succeeded in some specific ways) to mimic their motions.
