GIMME AN OMELETTE FOODBOT

Yeah this is OH SO real.  The New York Times reports that a bunch of robotics students at Carnegie Mellon (where they have a 5 year robotics degree…  yes I took the tour) have made a robot that delivers snacks.  The soon to be killing machine (singularity folks…) pictured above is some crazy japanese bot that’s making a savory pancake.  Snackbot is mobile.  It’ll grab you some bullshit snacks, and deliver them to your office.  Check the video below.  Can’t wait til they start poisoning our food.

Oh also

PARENTS!

LOOK AT HOW HIGH THIS DOG IS ON HIS BIRTHDAY

Chatroulette freaks me out. Catroulette makes me laugh.

What a difference a letter makes.

Tell me more about this sentient feather creature...

Bizzie Bone? Is that you Bizzie?? Sing Crossroads for me, just once?

Yes. Yes.

MUSIC VIDEO: Jonsi – “Go Do”

I kind of dig this song.  If you took out the four to the floor kick drum (played by a mummy on a suitcase… oh wait that’s Jonsi… ugh) this would sound like an Enya track.  In true Jonsi fashion, there are about 4 billion vocal tracks doing oohs, ahhs, blips, and long cannoning phrases that are probably reversed and played through a glacier.  Oh also, I think he thinks he’s a bird now.

NERDS ONLY: If you do not have college level science you will not fully enjoy this.

Normally these things are terrible. But this one? This one I kind of like. Not just because they do a pretty good job of rapping, but because THEY GO INTO EXCRUCIATING DETAIL.

If this fucker has ANYTHING to do with Windows 7 I’m going to be really mad

Is it useful?  I don’t know yet… Cool as fuck?  I’M ALREADY DROOLING.  TED 2010 was probably totally aweshum.  We need to go next year, but I doubt they’d give us press passes.

MUSIC: Circa Survive – “Get Out”

I’ve always liked this band.  I even liked it when lead singer Anthony Green was in Saosin (this is when Saosin didn’t completely suck).  His solo record however, is atrocious.
