    Superman eyes Wonder Woman sunbathing nude on top of a building, flys down for a quickie like a speeding bullet.

    Wonder Woman: Did you feel that?!?
    Invisible Man: No, but my ass is sure sore.

  7. Re:Meanwhile, in the city... on Getting Serious About Fuel Cells · · Score: 2, Funny

    He's right about the suburbanites, in fact I've got a way for the US to solve TWO of it's biggest problems:

    We get all of the overweight people to cycle on generators and pump electricity back into the grid, which can then be used to make hydrogen for the skinny people to drive to work. When the skinny people get fat from lack of exercise, we let the (now skinny) hampsters drive to work.

    Here's the math to prove it will work:
    60 million obese Americans
    30 pounds of fat on average overweight person
    4 kiloWatt-hrs/pound of fat

    = 7.2 billion kiloWatts!

    Hoover dam only produces 2 billion kW at peak theoretical output. Ok so the math is probably flawed, but we'd still have a skinnier, cleaner US.

  9. Re:Processing power on Grand Challenge 1, Competitors 0 · · Score: 1

    Well, yes we do use a lot of processing power to do simple things, but more importantly, our actions are not robotic. It is impossible for us to exactly duplicate the same movement. Consider the simple task of shuffling a deck of cards. Now imagine trying to build a pair of robotic hands to do the same thing. I wonder if any of the teams attempted to train their robots with neural networks. I know they have built cars that can autonomously drive city streets based on supervised learning...
