Chinese Robot

Ok, this is awesome! Just when you thought we'd never crack the robot-rickshaw problem.



Let me know if anyone's having problems with the new blog layout...

errr. I think I posted this very video about two years ago. I know that sounds assholic, but really, I think it's here somewheres. The idea of searching for it is daunting. Perhaps I posted it on the previous bloggy thing? I'm really not trying to be assholic, as this is a totally awesome video and I am happy to see it again!

by the way, pretty much everything in this article is fascinating. for instance, did you know that tatooine's metals are atomically unstable?

I can't find it, Galspanic... must have been before my (very recent) time.

The robot I built doesn't work, perhaps due to its non-metallic, humus-based contruction. Maybe it does work but I just don't understand what it does.

I remember this guy, he was all over the Curated Internet for a day or so. I'm pretty sure this story is a follow-up to that. For instance, he had not burned down his house then, and his wife was not strongly considering leaving him. He was just a goofy tinkerer then, a harmless J.F. Sebastian not yet harnessed by the Tyrell Corporation.

Why are those photos of Tusken Raiders sepia-toned?

Ruby, i'm sorry. I'm sure it's something fucked up on my side. Maybe I imagined the whole thing.
I love you, Ruby!
