That's very impressive. I know from my robotics class + professional experience that those are some pretty difficult problems to solve. The state of the art has certainly advanced!

! Yeah. The way the robot stays on foot, that's such a complex bunch of motions :shock:. Wonder how much of the controller for that is 'evolved' versus hand-designed.

I also wonder how reliable it is - these may be its finest moments... Still, impressive. And scary? Perhaps not more so than a live mule... or a soldier.

Screw walkin', this one's got rhythm. And a buit-in looper pedal. I can't help but feel a bit threatened.

That was satire... right? Please tell me that was satire. It is done in such a somber and convincing way, I honestly don't know anymore.

I just stumbled across an animated series called WTF by Max Ericson. This may be old news to you computer freaks, but it's new to me and I'm laughing my proverbial ass off. I can't help but think that this is what Mark is like in real life, lol.
:lol: Check this one out >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc210aR2 ... re=related

I've watched about 5 or 6 thus far and most of them are great.

BLT, is because of people like you, I don’t get any work done anymore. (More like lack of motivation, but I’ll blame it on you instead).
In other news, those videos are fucking awesome. That guy can do some pretty good amateur animation…
Episode #2 is my favorite so far.

Having spent a good amount of time in Mexico, where day workers line up waiting for "the truck", this reversal of fortuneis particularly amusing.

Are you sure about that? Republicans seem to be the ones who really want to clamp down on the border and prevent any more immigrants from coming. Even though Republicans are generally of European descent.

maybe people that believe in the republican party
but as far as the actual republican party
nah that would be absolutely not true

shit the republican got in office... and it just got worse
for a reason

things do not work the way they 'appear' 2

good workers, cheaper labor
the republican parties dream come true
regardless of the people that want to believe in the republican party haha

not smoking, but it's nice to know that's all anyone ever notices

kinda disrespect the english language, i also don't see why you can't read
the words are still all spelt correctly
'oh all the marks aint there, what to do? what to do?'

i mean, i'm really starting think talking to y'all is like pointless
like talking to a dog

yea i can do it, but what are they really gonna comprehend

ehhh i think it's just an american thing
most countries are used to seperate dialects
for some reason, people think you don't give a shit, and that is what makes you dumb
nah what makes you dumb, is you can't see anything around you

who all shops at wal-marts, buys gas, and works for a major corporation?
uhm... monopoly anyone?
it's supposed to be illegal, but ehhh a stupid american like you
just can't notice
'ehhhh, i wants to be told whats to do'

and i'm a slave to it, cause of dumb-shits like yourself

they actually have engines that run indefinitely off of no fuel whatsoever
not that it's legal to sale, you can build it yourself
not that i would tell you how
you seem to love things so much, the way they are
fuck it

abolish slavery here, only to send everything overseas to use their slaves
which is really only our slaves, just can't say it that way in america

'ehhhh what's he saying, what's he saying'

should get 'i'm dumb' tattooed on your forehead so people know not to say anything that may send your stupid mind adrift

or atleast in your signature
so i know not to waste my fucking time

i think that'll be the last time, i post here
leave you dumb-shits to yourselves
