Chudmorph writes "Philips is developing some odd thing they call Nebula.
In a nutshell, it's "an interactive projection system designed to enrich the experience of going to bed, sleeping and waking up."
"The system consists of a ceiling projector linked via the Internet to a database of content. The content consists of just about anything ranging from an alarm clock, to clouds, and even poetry."
This thing even responds to body movements! "
Here's a review, but I gotta believe that this is a joke.
Maybe he meant it's as much of a joke as Slashdot is. Oh, wait...
The below might be offensive to some. Don't read it if you're offendable.
I don't know about the rest of you slashdotters, but I literally masturbate every night very shortly before going to bed, which for me entails closing my eyes and stroking myself under the covers, with all my other to-bed preparation done and in darkness, and which usually is accompanied by vivid visions of various sexy and interesting human things. After I've spent myself into a couple of tissues and cleaned up, thrown the tissues into a ball besides my bed, I can usually go asleep very quickly and pleasantly. (None of this routine applies to going to sleep later than usual, but only when I don't feel already particularly "sleepy".)
Incidentally, does anyone else here experience scenes of coding very vividly as they're going to sleep, or during the night? I've even woken up once needing to urinate with a strong image of << signs next to a toilet. (i.e. as though it were an object in C++ with insertion operators overloaded for it). Weird. Incidentally, I have a very large IQ, as most slashdotters do, which could have something to do with it. When I'm studying a foreign language, phrases from it repeat in me as I'm going to sleep, even when I'm not thinking about anything remotely related. Same with certain symphanies, etc, I've heard in a given day. Maybe sleeping is a way of making information your own by regurgitating it and digesting it again. Thoughts, anyone?
All this was prompted by:
"designed to enrich the experience of going to bed" I don't need my experience enriched!

Dood,
/. Think this guy has no life. What you say Taco?
Dont bother with this guy, he's been posting advertisments to his little project on slashdot for a while, for some comic relief see his other posts. Always to do with this project, in things totally unrealted. He must be having an orgasm seeing this topic here!
There are some neat comments by guys who are sick of this idiot trying to spamm his little SF project on
