@Dinosaurs and Nachos, girlfriend!: See what the rest of that woman's team members would think about that argument; such a stance would mean forcing other people to face the very real risk of serious injury or death in the event of complications. Your argument essentially violates the right of others to live in order

@OhFudge: Same story here, though I remembered my login info. I stopped playing online because the interface drove me nuts. I guess I'm waiting for a slick-looking iPad app or something.

@José Joel: You just defined what a cyborg is; the co-mingling of man and machine.

@Jackstick: Web 2.0 is sooooooo Web 2.0

@beanspeppin: Just like every woman I've ever known.

@indrawnperson: This is a proof-of-concept; they wouldn't actually use a Kinect in actual surgury. If it gets to the point where it can become a commercial venture, I assume they will work out a deal with Microsoft to license the technology for medical use.

@macpatrik: The human body really is just a caffeine filter. I guess now I know how the decaffeination process works.

@macpatrik: I think you just demonstrated the flaw in @redman042's plan; confusing your coffee bag with your urine bag would be a common mistake.

@KamWrex: But it is what we do in a jeopardy-type situation. This isn't a comparison of the human brain V computer processor; this is a comparison of human ability and Watson's ability to interpret language in context and provide a meaningful response.

@iBuntu: The amazing thing is that it is interpreting the answers correctly and retrieving the appropriate information to provide the questions.

@misspennywhistle: Monetary damages are the standard method of changing business practices, are they not?

@Chilli: The Frog Fart Nebula? It has a certain ring to it...

@showbiz2: Is there a sliding scale for awesomeness? If the current gadget is tons of awesome, do you get more time with it?

This article begs a curious question; what is the minimum amount of time before the next upgrade cycle that it is acceptable to purchase the current version of a product? 6 months? 3 months? A year? At what point is it not worth buying and instead waiting for the newer tech?

@KillMeNow is making an omelet with fried eggs: Theoretically, you'd be fine carrying new litter, as it's cat poop (and rodents, I suppose) that you have to worry about. However, since heavy lifting is a no-no anyway, the point is moot; continue life guilt free, and make your partner move some furniture while you rest

@no clever name: I also live in MN; at this time of year, if you get hit while jaywalking, there's a pretty good chance you're not getting up so, you won't really have a say in the matter, and your next of kin will have to pay your hospital/funeral costs.

@rainofwalrus: Truly. At that point, why not just two screens?
