The Body-laptop interface is knitted from Thneed which nobody, Nobody, NOBODY needs {Engadget}

Jun 19th 2008 11:34AM finally, a way to completely remove any possibility of human interaction from the art of computing. I'm sick of seeing other people while I use my computer, and what's even better is I can make a heat chamber with a very powerful heat source, a computer!

Very nice human oven, although a bit macabre.

Wal-Mart's HDTV pricing puts competition in a world of hurt {Engadget HD}

May 7th 2007 2:19PM Okay, this argument is getting really old! Why does everyone bash Walmart for killing small business? The whole point in starting business' is to make money, correct? Well, then give old Mr. Walmart the credit he deserves. He started as just a little corner store and turned it into the largest money making chain in the world.... AND he's American! Even better! But, now that he has succeeded where most others have failed, because he figured out what he had to do to make it work, he is hated by everyone for being a killer of small business. How hypocritical is that? You think I'm alone in my thinking? Tell that to the people who spend nearly 500 Million in Wal-Mart stores the day after this past Thanksgiving. Or maybe turn around and tell it to the single mother of three in the next cubicle that was able to by buy new clothes for her entire family for a couple hundred bucks by going to Wal-Mart, rather than going to Macy's and only being able to buy a couple shirts.... or for that matter, even Target and only being able to get half as many items of clothing. I bet she has no problem with the effects Wal-Mart has on small business because there isn't a small business out there that is only going to charge her $8 for shirts, etc. for her kids. Wal-mart was just smart enough to figure out the only way it was going to work was by charging lower prices, and in the long run it would pay off. Well, it did... he made a business plan and stuck to it. Maybe if more small business' would go that route rather than playing the mark up game they would be successful as well.

rant ended....
