    When we have hype headlines like this one, it's a sign that Slashdot is really dead.

    I'm insulted. Anyone with an IQ above room temperature knows that "recognizing one's image in a mirror" is not the meaning of self awareness, except as a bad pun.

    The quality of slashdot articles continues to be shit.
