  1. Cape Canaveral on Ask Slashdot: Science Sights To See? · · Score: 1

    Kennedy Space Center has some impressive buildings, but the museum sucks -- looks like it has been forgotten there.

    You might even catch a launch: http://kennedyspacecenter.com/events.aspx#2011/11/0/

  2. Re:Nothing new here. on iPhone Opens Up Bluetooth For Data · · Score: 1

    Nike is not allowed to use the internal radio thingy (which is not bluetooth), even to connect to it's own nike+ sensor. The app which does that is developed by Apple and ships with the iOS - but it's so buggy, Nike went ahead and shipped another Nike+ app to the AppStore which uses the GPS + accelerometer as a pedometer.

  3. Or another option that works on Macs on Transform a Regular LCD Into a Touchscreen · · Score: 1

    http://www.magictouch.com/addon.html

    It's priced around US$200, but works with your fingers and have a mac version.

  4. Re:What's stopping them from..... on Proposal to Implant RFID Chips in Immigrants · · Score: 1

    It will not break. Tags are strong enough to stay within a working muscle. No implantable hardware may ever break.

    Yes, they're strong enough to support everything inside human body. But if that's same kind of tags implanted in dogs (mine have one), they'll break if someone tries to remove it. It's made this so it can't be re-used.

    I'll try to find a link on the kind of tags used in dogs.

  5. Re:What's stopping them from..... on Proposal to Implant RFID Chips in Immigrants · · Score: 1


    If you try to remove that, it will break. And if every immigrant is forced to have a tag, and is found without one, he'd be in trouble.

    So you can't remove it, and can't change it for someone else's.

    Wouldn't it be easier if they'd just tattoo some barcode on us already?

  6. i think it has nothing to do with aibo on CAM-Brain: Artificial Self-Teaching Brain · · Score: 1

    They're project is headed making a "real"-like artificial brain, capable of learning on rules... I think it's way too much serious than aibo.

    Stop comparing them! =]

  7. Re:Whoa on CAM-Brain: Artificial Self-Teaching Brain · · Score: 1

    They're only going to keep the mobile functions on the kitten and use infrared to communicate the remote (bigger) brain with it's body...
