Wristwatch USB Drive
opwierde writes "For the gadget happy multitude LAKS has made the ultimate wristwatch. It's a USB drive combined with a watch and they've managed to make it look rather nice." (This looks like a nice place to store a persistent homedir to use with Knoppix-MiB ;))

DAMMIT I ALWAYS MISS THE FIRST POST! IT SUCKS!
Your time will come, AC. Your time will come...
By the way,
goatse.cx, linux sucks, bsd is dying, patriot act rules, microsoft rules, eff sucks, etc
You don't want any friends other than Americans? How limiting.
Anyone offer me venture capital for a new line of webcam enabled dildos ?
wow, you just described the parts of the porn that I skip through.
Am I weird or do most people really like this stuff more than penetration? Penetration being in my opinion the real main course of porn.
A drive implies a disk that spins with a read/write head flying track to track. This watch has solid state memory. It is NOT a drive, it is a watch with memory in it.
Quit butchering the language.
Off topic but fuck it. Neo had better have left the matrix. For mine, this whole meta matrix idea would be a piss-weak plot device and a real disappointment.
I find it amusing that the link was "fixed", except they forgot to add the mandatory "http://" to the front. Silly /. editors!
Neo never left the Matrix. Not even in the first movie. Everyone, including Zion, is still inside.
While this is possible, it's no more supported than a "this is just Neo having a really bad drug trip" interpretation, or a "the Empire was good and the Rebels are evil terrorists" interpretation of Star Wars.
If the robots were going to build a seperate Matrix, you'd think that they'd simply have individual programs, like what the rebels use to control Zion or train operatives, and leave them there.
Remember: the robots don't lie as a rule, and the genesis of the design of the Matrix is a program who believes that humans and machines need to live together--and who was and is mistrusted by her peers inside and outside of the Matrix.
That's just too pissweak... My guess is that Neo can access the Matrix through alternate methods than just the ethernet cable in the back of his head. Effectively he's wireless. So when the octopuses come into range he senses them and "whack". He's probably always had this ability on a subconcious level and this extra communication channel could be what gives him his advantage in the Matrix but as he uses it more he's become more concious to it. I think evolution might play a part. The Matrix is designed and built to interface with humans but due to unpredictable random evolution the humans change to better interface with the matrix, thus subverting it, Neo being the paragon of such advancement. In some ways I think Neo is a human who has gained machine aspects and that will be juxtaposed with Smith who is a program who has gained human aspects. (Note the symbolism of them both bleeding from the hand, Smith in the real world and Neo in the Matrix, blood brothers to some extent?). Who knows? But I bet it's going to be a blast finding out.

This may seem trivial...
When I'm Modding, I give At Least 10 minutes before I choose to mark a post Redundant. Mine and the previous post must have been Seconds apart as they are consecutively numbered.
As far as I can tell the robot dude demanded that they gave up their flesh and then blew up the leaders as an example to prevent resistance.

well i had two dates last night and im juggling 4 women right now. and im serious. i have to figure something out for this weekend before they all find out and im left with nothing....
and actually the one im 'dating' is pretty cool. ive never been out with a nerd girl and keep my geekyness under control in the presence of the fairer sex - just last night one of my dates was teling me about her cousin whois building a simulator for the gov.. but h cant help but be a nerd in normal conversation. obviously sharp as a tack but no social skills whatsoever (and was raised by a dad that way). we had a good laugh and then i got some action.
the moral of the story: jon got some, who needs morals?
