Reply to TIL Margaret Knight (1838-1914) invented a machine to mass produce flat-bottomed paper bags and, after winning a lawsuit against a fraudster who copied her design, the patent was issued in 1871. Her first invention was when she was 12 years old (and began working in a factory). She had 87 patents. by WonderWmn212
Damn! Her first invention was when she was 12 years old and began working in a factory. I would say that was a different time, but several places still have children working. It even seems like some places in America are trying to "Make Child Workers A Thing Again."

The kid not playing seems more invested in the game than the two playing.
Does anyone remember Intellivision?

Reply to Executive Director of the San Jose Police Officers’ Association charged with importing fentanyl by ChocolateTsar
She was so bold, it was reckless. She sent packages using the POA's UPS account and kept trafficking and doing business AFTER she was questioned for buying and selling drugs. Damn, she couldn't lay low for even a few months. She either thought investigators were really stupid or she was really smart (untouchable).
