  1. I hope they come with the three laws of robotics. on Robotic Bubble Baths for Japan's Elderly · · Score: 3, Interesting

    We need those robots here too, so we don't have to see anymore headlines about old people being beaten by their caretakers or left to lie in their own excrements for weeks.

  2. Re:Question on Building a Large Linux Knowledgebase · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Since "everyone" is using Windows, it's easy to get help in real life. Also, Swedish highschools force their students to learn the basics of Windows in an obligatory course. It's really supposed to be a general course about computers, but in reality it's all about Windows. Once a not-so-advanced Windows user wants to do something "odd", the lack of a well-known Windows tutorial is apparent. For example, very many (newbie mudders) do not know how to turn on the echo function in Windows telnet. There's lots of tutorials online on how to do this, but few seem to know where to look.

    So if I'm planning a reunion party for all the members of my old highschool class, I can't look their numbers up in the phone book and write them down on a separate paper? Sounds great. I never liked them anyway.
