Given that this seems to be just a simple font, why would it be hard to write an OCR program to decipher specifically this font (or any other supposedly secure font)? Perhaps a program that dynamically obfuscated text like a CAPTCHA would be more useful. This appears to be more of an artistic statement than something useful.
It looks like that controller has a reasonably decent CPU and graphics hardware on it. Given the camera and other hardware on the unit, it is very likely that the device is locally executing some program to interact with the main console. It isn't really that practical to render everything on the console and stream it uncompressed to four separate tablet remotes, so I think this is the likely implementation. If this controller had some form of local storage or even an SD card slot, it could hypothetically be used as a standalone "Nintendo tablet." This would involve Nintendo competing against itself in the handheld gaming market, but if the controller has high enough specs, it might be a good hedge against the 3DS catastrophically failing against the new Playstation Vita. While the device could obviously not directly compete with iOS and Android devices, it could fill an important niche role, especially if Nintendo could market the device as a safe tablet for children. With the right apps, they could even sell the things to schools.
In Soviet Russia (this is not a joke), Space Shuttle Buran flew one unmanned orbital flight. It landed in a 57km/h crosswind and was only 1.5m off the center line of the runway. The program was cancelled after the end of Communism in Russia. Buran was destroyed a few years ago when the hanger it was being stored in in Kazakstan collapsed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_Buran http://www.buran.ru/
but didn't this happen recently on a story about a star exploding? Maybe, Mandrakesoft (star logo) is coming completely back from bankruptcy, and therefore this had to be reported twice.
I am in high school. Next year I plan to take AP Computer Science. This course is based around Java. I think it would be nice and even spark intraschool competition if you could use the skills you learn in class. This would be similar to a science and/or social studies fair in which you simply expand on topics that you learn in class. Many people that are in the science fair are not "geeks." However, I personally don't mind being called a geek.
WHAT!?!? This computer does not come with AOL! How can you get Internet without AOL?! I am not going to buy one because it is not compatible with Internet.

We are located in East Texas, and we are developing innovative technologies and products.
There seem to be a lot of "innovative" firms located in East Texas.
I made the same thing in Roller Coaster Tycoon last week, but the intended goal was murder, not euthanasia.

If you looks closely at the first screenshot, you will see that the system tempeture is 242 degrees Celcius (468 Fahrenheit).

Space Shuttle Discovery has become too much like the Discovery Channel- too much Monster Garage and not enough Physics. Look at picture number 4. http://www.msnbc.com/modules/interactive.aspx?type =ss&launch=7587438,6955261

No. Just the 100 Kilometer High Club.

Microsoft is spending so much money funding SCO's war on Linux that they didn't have enough money to spend on a legitimate copy of SoundForge.
I NEED gravity almost as much as I need my computer.
