The Disposable Computer

sp00 writes "A disposable paperboard computer has been developed and is already in use in Sweden. Developed by Cypak AB, the paperboard computer can collect, process, and exchange several pages of encrypted data, the company says." Pretty impressive, given that they say it has a mere 32K of memory.

    The Embrace Question

    Wednesday, December 04, 2002

    Dear Blue Lobster:

    I have two crayfish in my African cichlid tank. One is blue and has longer claws (if that's the right term), and the other is brown and has shorter claws. Do the size of the front claws indicate male and female? They have been together in the tank for a few months. Twice I have seen the longer-clawed crayfish (blue) grab hold of the shorter one's claws and hold it in what looks like a mating embrace. Could this actually be a mating embrace, or are they probably just fighting? Thanks.

    Dear Gentle Sir:

    To address the most important point first, no, what you are observing is not a mating embrace! It is an embrace of death, brought about by territorial disputes between the two crayfish in your tank! I recommend either relocating one of the two crayfish, or moving the entire system to a larger tank. Crayfish are very territorial and what you have seen in the past is a guarantee of oblivion for the first of these two arch-rivals the moment that they molt and become vulnerable!!!

    As for the question about claw size indicating gender: no, sir, this simply indicates that these crays are of different species, and most probably different genera as well.

    Yoshi isn't the chink, he's the fat slob that hangs out with Patrick. Since its in San Fran, I suppose they felch each other in that Chevelle you see in the intro.

    32K!!!? We would've been happy to have 32K! We had to get up at 3 o'clock in the morning, one hour before we went to bed, have a fist full of gravel for breakfast and flash our 2K clean by licking it, byte by byte. 32K! Ha! Luxury!
