ChenLing writes "Forget small robots on wheels playing soccer...193 teams from 30 countries have built androids to play soccer at 'RoboCup'. Although as the article says, it will be a while before we can pit androids vs humans on the same field....." Our previous story has background links and information about the contest.

  1. Pro-US censorship at slashdot ? by Krapangor · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Speaking of football, I have to mention that I'm very surprised that Slashdot didn't have any information about the historic loss of the US football team against Germany.
    As far as I understand football is considered to be a "weird" or "nerd" sport in the US, so this would be "News for Nerd. Stuff that matters."
    Or are you just rejecting stories which shed a bad light at the US ?
