:blink: JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) ? A man accused of bursting into a convenience store demanding money was in the hospital Friday ? shot, authorities said, by the great-great-grandmother working behind the counter.

Janet Grammer was filling in for the regular clerk Thursday afternoon when a man entered the store waving a gun and fired two shot at the back wall.

?I think he thought I was an old woman and would just give him the money,? Grammer, 64, said Friday. ?My life was at stake. I thought he was going to kill me.?

So she pulled a pistol out from under the cash register and fired once, hitting the man in the chest. He fell to the ground, dropped his gun and then fled, leaving a trail of blood. Grammer fired two more shots as he was running away.

The sheriff?s report said a man fitting the suspect?s description and injury went to a hospital a short time later. He told doctors he shot himself.

The man, whose name has not been released, was being treated at Shands Jacksonville hospital Friday for a wound to the chest. Police spokesman Ken Jefferson said the man faces robbery charges.

Grammer, who has 10 children, 32 grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren, said she worried she had killed the man. ?All I could think about was his poor parents,? Grammer said.

Grammer said she never had to shoot anyone during her 10 years of working as a security guard. ?I?m sick over it. It was very upsetting. I?m not feeling real perky.?

Thats not physically possible. I doubt even 1 great belongs in that phrase.

Only way this could happen, think of it this way

She had child at 18

Child had grandchild at 18

Grandchild had great grandchild at 18

Great grandchild had great-great grandchild at 18

I count 76...therefore leading me to beleive she was a child prostitute, giving birth at 6.

Well if she gave birth at 16, and each generation also gave birth at 16 (or fathered a child), then you have a great great grandchild at 64. Impossible? Nope. Improbable, I hope so!

Holy ****!

64? So every generation had children at 10 or under? Think about it.. 10 children. She would NEED to have had those 10 kids by the time she was 16 in order to fit that 16x16x16x16=64 system. 10 kids take 7 years to produce. So she produced her first one at age 9... and her children had children.. hahaha damn.

That's hysterical. Good job granny.

Izolate, HUH???? Um if just her oldest had a kid at 16 and that one's oldest at 16 and so on, the remaining nine have no effect on how early or late she can become a great-great grandmother.

I know what you mean, but she has multiple grandkids, great grandkids and great-great grandkids. If she only had one of each, fine.. the 16*4 rule works. She has more though.. so she has to have had a few of her children at a very early age.. in order for them in turn have their grandkids (her great-greats) to be born while she is still 64

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By madhopsman · Posted

      Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
