Miss Digital World 2005
dnix writes "With the slogan: "Don't hate me because I'm digital" this year we have a nice new Top Digital Model, called Mi, from Shinichi Yoshimoto. She is a nice cybernetic geisha who was chosen from 15 finalists from Italy, Germany, Spain, Pakistan, Iran, Usa, Chile, India, Australia, Brasil and Mexico."
This is about the only way most /.ians will ever get a girl. Now we just need half way decent VR and a "touch suit" (I should TM that name) and were well away.
I used to have a better sig but it broke.
I personally feel that Mamegal has an eating disorder and we should not be helping her illness.
Any CNC that works in latex?
This website includes the winners of the 2005 website which were announced on December 10. Unless slashdot posted a dupe within the last four days then I'd seriously doubt it. Then again Digg probably had it first (sarcasm).
Ooo man the floppy drive is broken. No wait. The computer is just upside down.
1) Issue competition of best looking virtual girls
2) Post full finalists roundup including pictures on server
3) Post meta article on slashdot with link to said server
4) Retreat to safe distance as server gets warm and shows cracks

Brasil is absolutely correct.

I can see it now. The human race slowly becoming extinct because everyone would rather hump a perfect digital partner in VR than interact with a real person. Perhaps we will have developed technology to the point where we can make babies in a tank though.
Funny thing is though, I know several guys that are probably never going to get a partner let alone have children simply because they have set their sights way to high. They want a perfect woman or nothing. In two cases it is perfect looks that they require and in another it's the perfect little obedient house wife (that last guy makes me cringe everytime we talk). I can't help feeling that there are a lot of guys out there that have lost touch with reality due to constantly having "beautiful" women displayed to them.

Wow, amazing....you seem to enjoy bashing American's ignorance while exposing your own:read the first sentence here, it tells you the official name of Bra(s/z)il in Portugese is...........drumroll please.....
República Federativa do Brasil!
And guess what, I'm an American! I've also had tech jobs on 3 continents before my 25th birthday! Go back and learn something about the world, then we can talk

Than a chick with a high poly count.
.... Do they come with some sort of EULA?
This is my opinion. To make sure you don't steal it, it's covered by the DMCA.
I tried getting kinky with a digital girl once - but she core-dumped on me.
I like chicks alot. Been married, lived with a few others, like long term relationships. The thing is I don't get the uber smooth, cyber skinned, tricked out, fantasy girls, or, the equally poreless, celluloid supermodels. The first time I seriously came undone in the face of transcendent physical beauty was the first time I saw my first real girlfriend fresh out of the shower sans makeup.
I guess I'm just a regular guy that likes real regular chicks with attractive little flaws.
I'll take the time I've here and now cause obviously I'm not suited to the tailored, gene spliced and diced perfect world to come.

In fact, she exists only from the neck up

Unless you're OJ. Then it's slash, slash, backslash, escape.

using anti-bacterial hand soap is like drying your feet in the middle of a shower.
When I finished school in 2000 (while working full time) we already had two children. And a house. No, I didn't make mega-bucks (still don't and we have 4 children and a much nicer home) but we were very careful with our money and still are. I don't have gadgets (unless you count the XBox, which doubles as our DVD player), my computer is older than my first born (and cobbled together with parts I bought from a wholesaler) and I drive an old car with a lot of miles on it. I bring my lunch from home and we don't eat out much, maybe once every 8 weeks. We rent movies instead of going to the movie theatre. I don't have a lot of spending money, about $15 every two weeks. And yet, I wouldn't trade any amount of money or so-called social freedom for my family. Oh, and by the way, no one I have ever met or heard of was ready for children before they came. They kind of grow on you and you cannot get that kind of practice any other way. Some responsibilities cannot be prepared for until after the weight of them has already settled onto your shoulders and having children is one of those responsibilities.
Poverty is not a poor financial statement. It is a state of mind. I remember an old Appalachian woman being asked what she would do if she got some money. This was in the last few years that she was interviewed. She lived in a one room shack without indoor plumbing, out in the sticks. She said, "Well, I suppose I would give it to the poor." If you must have loads of spending money and lots of cool stuff in order for you to think of yourself as not poverty stricken, well, you don't really want children, do you? It's about your priorities.
Well, I do carry on, don't I? Point is, if you want to take on the responsibilities of children, don't wait until you are ready, because you never will be until you have them in your life.

I thought you might want to know that both English and German should be capitalized. You're very welcome.
In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
Do cyber models also appeal for world peace in their winning speech?
No, they ask people not to play Medal Of Honour quite so much.
And appeal for help defragging HDDs of those living in less technically literate parts of the world.

Kaya is ravishing. She has full lips, long lashes, and a slightly upturned nose. Her expression radiates confidence and power, and her smooth skin is well scrubbed and dotted with freckles. But she doesn't have much of a body. At all.
Kaya
HEIGHT: 5'5"
WEIGHT: 121 pounds
So what we have here folks is a 5'5" tall, 121 lb head.
