Lymow One smart robomower made to deal with large lawns

The Lymow One is a robot lawnmower with a high coverage area for larger lawns, one that also uses satellite navigation and onboard mapping systems to know where it is in your garden without a perimeter wire.

Originally a successful Kickstarter campaign that raised over $3.5 million, Lymow has enhanced its offering to create the new Lymow One. An advanced robot lawnmower with quite a few smart features.

Its Dual Blade Mowing Deck is designed to work with multiple types of grass, with the use of two high-speed spinning mulching blades and a centrifugal fan. The system cuts clippings while avoiding clumping to nourish the lawn, while also distributing the clippings evenly.

Using a brushless motor with a peak output of 1,200W, it can spin the blades at up to 6,000 RPM, with a cutting width of 16 inches. The terrain-adaptive floating deck can adjust from 1.2 inches to 4 inches, while its omniwheels follow the ground across uneven terrain.

The LySee Multi-Fusion navigation system uses a combination of real-time kinematic (RTK) satellite positioning as well as visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) to know where it is with centimeter-level precision. While RTK signals can be affected by trees, bad weather, and other environmental factors, VSLAM can handle times when the satellite is not available.

The VSLAM system uses stereo cameras with image-based semantic recognition and depth-sensing to understand its surroundings. Its onboard processing can also adapt to obstacles, including pet waste, animals, and sprinklers, avoiding them if necessary, as defined in the Lymow app.

It also has five ultrasonic sensors, two front bumpers, and off-ground sensors in the blade deck for safety. It can stop the blades within a second once it detects a hazardous situation.

Lymow has also made it a speedy mower, with it able to cover 0.23 acres an hour, 0.57 acres per charge, or 1.73 acres per day. Its traction allows it to handle obstacles up to two inches in height, 45-degree slopes, and even some staircases.

Built to be rugged, it is made from a one-piece die-cast aluminum alloy frame, as well as an IPX6 waterproof rating.

The Lymow One is in production, with delivery expected from April 2025. It is priced at $2,999.

UFC 311’s Sedriques Dumas Responds To Crip Gang Member Who Wants To Fight Him: ‘Let Me Know When You’re Ready’

Mixed martial arts (MMA) continues to be the strangest sport in the world.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Middleweight Sedriques Dumas returns to action after going 1-1 in 2024 at UFC 311 in two weeks (Sat., Jan. 18, 2024) against knockout artist Zach Reese, which is set to go down inside Intuit Dome in Inglewood (Los Angeles), California.

However, before Dumas collides with his opponent, he might have something to take care of … fight a Rollin 40s Crip.

Recently, on the No Jumper Podcast, Rollin 40s Crip 4Xtra doubled down and said he’d fight and beat up any UFC fighter (we’ve heard this before).

“So you ruffled some feathers last time we were together because you said that you would whoop the sh-t out of a UFC heavyweight, and a lot of UFC fighters were not a fan of this, and they want to challenge you,” Adam22 told 4Xtra.

4xtra responded with, “All right, hurry up and set it up. I’ve been waiting on this. Set the f—king thing up. I’m about to put him up. That’s the cold part about it. See, that’s the thing about UFC fighters. They think they gonna win because they got a paper showing that you are a UFC fighter. Because you got accepted to the UFC, that doesn’t mean you gonna win. You get it? You think you’re just gonna beat a dude that fights on the street or fights in jail?

“I see people who are boxers get knocked out. You get what I’m saying? So don’t matter what he is talking about on that; make sure he has a bag, and I’m gonna put his ass out. And when I put him out, I want another $100,000 for putting him out. Set this up now.”

Maybe he saw B.J. Penn get knocked out in a bar fight.

Nevertheless, Adam22 mentioned Dumas’s name and said he would be more than willing to fight the gang member.

Last night (Jan. 4, 2025), “The Reaper” responded to 4Xtra’s open challenge and accepted a fight.

“Put who out,” Dumas wrote on his Instagram story. “Boy let me know when you ready.”

At least the podcast host tried to talk some sense into his guest by basically saying he has no chance.

“This is the problem. I’m gonna tell you. I’ve thought about this a lot,” Adam22 said. “Every UFC champion has an immaculate ground game. Their jiu-jitsu is off the charts. Here’s the problem: you’ve never had to worry about being taken down, aka a guy diving in, grabbing your legs, pulling you down to the ground. I swear to God, these motherf—kers are like anaconda.

“What they’re gonna do is they’re gonna snake their way up your body, and then they’re gonna wrap their arms, their legs, around your head, around your arm,” he added. “All of a sudden, they’re gonna choke your ass. You have not even thought about the shit that they’re gonna do to you. I’m just very worried about you getting choked out.”

“I think we should start out with a requirement that there is no taking the person down,” Adam22 concluded. “Because I think in a stand-up fight, I have way more confidence in you, but as soon as it gets to jiu-jitsu on the ground. I think you’re gonna realize, like, ‘Oh, I need five years of training.”

Even after getting some advice from Adam22, Xtra still proclaimed he’d beat any UFC fighter.

“What the f—k? I don’t care what you talking about or what the f—k it is. You ain’t looking at my face. You don’t understand me. I don’t give a f—k what you’re talking about or what he coming in there with. He’s going out.”

Awards season has commenced, and first up in 2025 are the Golden Globes! The annual event will be hosted by 40-year-old comedian Nikki Glaser this year. In a statement shared on the Golden Globes website, she said, “I am absolutely thrilled to be hosting the Golden Globes. It’s one of my favorite nights of television and now I get a front row seat (actually, I think I have to host from the stage).”

As stated on the website, Glaser added, “The Golden Globes is not only a huge night for TV and film, but also for comedy. It’s one of the few times that show business not only allows, but encourages itself to be lovingly mocked (at least I hope so). (God I hope so). It’s an exciting, yet challenging gig because it’s live, unpredictable, and in front of Hollywood’s biggest stars (who also might be getting wasted while seated next to their recent exes).”

She continued, “Some of my favorite jokes of all time have come from past Golden Globes opening monologues when Tina, Amy or Ricky have said exactly what we all didn’t know we desperately needed to hear. I just hope to continue in that time honored tradition (that might also get me cancelled). This is truly a dream job.””

As she prepares for one of Hollywood’s biggest awards shows, many of 2024’s hottest stars are nominated, including Zendaya, Timothée Chalamet, and Ariana Grande.
