So I saw this on reddit just now and holy fuck this is the most uncanny valley reaching thing I have ever seen... fuck when they show it moving at the begining, and near the end... chills man, chills. Normally this kinda shit doesn't bother me but damn, there's something really unsettling about it when it mimics THAT well... http://video.foxnews.com/v/2094938759001/robot-baby-learns-how-to-express-human-emotions/?intcmp=obnetwork

Hi guys, Does anyone know how to get the .apk from here - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.psencik.simple.silencer . Orange have finally updated my phone to Jelly Bean and all is good but there's a rather annoying 'feature' that's been added which causes the phone to make a noise when fully charged (even when set to silent). I plug the phone in at night and found out that 2am it gave me a nice little alarm to wake me and will continue to do so until I can get hold of this (free) app. The problem is that he's only setting it on the market store as compatible for devices he's tested himself, as he hasn't tried it on the S3 it's therefore market as in…

Hey guys and gals, Didn't know where else to post this, google search came up with tons of stuff but it was all beyond my abilities. Basically, does anyone have any experience with math/science equations or formulae not displaying in their web browser? I can't get any of the class work to display and I have tried both firefox and IE, most recent update etc. I have looked for different codecs that might help, but have come up with nothing. Surely this is a common problem and there should be an easy fix but I can't find one! Hoping a watmm computer genius can help. wtf! p.s. I'm borderline computer illiterate.. sorry

Hey guys and gals, I recently ordered a turntable (settled on a project debut 3 se with upgraded cartridge). The seller contacted me before shipping it and notified me that it is 220-240v. As this is not compatible with my 110v 60hz plugs, I need to find a solution! Is the only way to get around this to get an upconverter/transformer? If so, will 800 watts cover it? I googled this issue but couldn't find an answer to how much wattage I would need. cheers, SG

17.3" vs 15.6"
by Guest happycase- 17 replies
- 1.2k views
So I've just started school again. I've been using my dad's 17.3" laptop. The specs aren't great AMD A8 Processor, 1.9 Ghz, 6GB RAM. The one thing I really really like about it is the 17.3" screen. Now I went to Costco where I get my laptops (amazing 90 day no questions asked return policy) and was playing with the 15.6" and wasn't sure if I could go back to a smaller size. The 15.6" I'm looking at has great specs, 2.4Ghz Intel i-7 processor, 8GB RAM, soft to touch, portable. I just want to make sure that I have enough space and can do the little bit of gaming I do comfortably. So, what do you think? Is a 15.6" laptop satisfying enough?

I heard the Queen has her own speciality brand of mint made personally by a selected group of singing green midgets who will remain nameless. It is estimated that in the U.S alone at least 5.07619.81199 after dinner mints are consumed daily. Speculations have risen as to whether citizens also consume these mints at other times than after their dinners. Do you engage in the act of having after dinner mints? If so, what are your favourite types of after dinner mints and how long have you been having after dinner mints? And also, for the Americans, are you eating after dinner mints at other times than at after dinner?
