Martial Arts Robots

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the jackie-chan-in-unemployment-line dept.

curmudgeous writes "Japanese tech firms are making waves with robots trained to perform martial arts moves." On one hand, this is largely just a novelty, but on the other, robots capable of doing these moves are many steps closer to being able to move around in real world environments. But mostly, sumo stomping robots look cool.

    "therefore runs" is an interesting choice of words by the writer. Does it imply that Linux now has a reputation as a scientifically-orientated OS?


    Of course it does you dick licking twat. What else do you think it means?

    Quite honestly I expect nothing else from a Windows loving cunt like your good self. Is there nothing spread arsed MS whores won't do to attract Gates' tiny knob? Probably not. I've come to expect nothing less from FUDge mongers.
