If you want to blow up the macho myth of truck driving which truck makes every other truck look soft?

Gilsung Park’s design is one design I think. The slotted wing\electrical prong slides back & up. Movement = Cool = plenty Toy Sales. Buy this I will.

Good to see an article about this and there are a lot of terrific videos out there. The point with Musk is that he is foremost a committed visionary who starts with an everyman question. That often overlooks the difficult details, but he knows if you employ enough smart people, nothing is too hard. This is one project…

Cash transactions = no tax.

Telephoto lens...meet my friend opportunity.

“Bombing the Hurricane” : Popular saying to describe the switch from hilarious laughter to sudden horror. Example: Telling a hilarious joke about the boss at the office drinks and realising everyone has stopped laughing and is looking behind you.

I see a lot of these articles that bemoan the onslaught of corporatised solutions that are popular because they address the market better. However they tend to overlook the fact that you dominate when you create a better product. Disney was a niche studio even up to 15 years ago when they took a chance with 2 other…

Seinfeld has “yada, Yada, Yada”. Alien has “Huga, Huga, Huga”...the inevatible act of stupidity by human to perpetuate Alien storyline. 

In Australia they imported container loads of them in the early 80's and a few friends of mine bought them for bush bashing & farm run-a-bouts. Not happy campers... with the deal-breaker for most being the heater\AC usually sticking on heat. In a Aussie summer this was a deal breaker. They could put up the rest of the…

Enemy Mine is still one of my favourite films. Basically a sci-fi ‘Hell in the Pacific’, but better IMHO.

Why don’t we upgrade the system than currently works for roads semi-successfully? We have traffic control by signage & traffic lights at most intersections so why not put the AI at the intersection and let the the car effectively be controlled through the intersection, like air traffic control in the skies?

This is button foreplay. When you press the last button you will be looking at your passengers crotch and there is only one more button to push...

When it first was released in Japan I had heard of it and, as a anime fan from childhood, was eager to see it. Fortunately it ran on TV on late night ‘cult’ channel so when I first saw it in 1995 it completely reset my expectations of the genre. Since then every new anime is compared via the prism of EVA. So when I…

This looks so bad I am going to need to change my handle.

It is for the ‘Tattoo’ option. A height challenged butler who travels in the boot and pops out when the bell is rung on a harness that the seatbelt restrains allowing serving food & drinks with both hands. Bentley is currently patenting the concept.

You obviously haven’t seen this Arcee. Plus a huge voice...

The answer to AOC question is really that Australia has a fundamental commitment to fairness to all as personified in our Universal Health Care system, that is almost sacred and un-touchable. Part of that system is the Pharmaceuticals Benefit Scheme that subsidises expensive medicines medicines, even before they…

I think ‘Dystopian’ has become code for non writers\producers who lack vision to lazily appropriate sci-fi in an effort to guarantee eyeballs.

This movie is like saying goodbye to your children when they leave home. You have watched them grow, learn, make mistakes and start figuring out what they want to do. Probably the most surprising Marvel movie ever, not just because of the way it finishes the storylines of Iron Man, Captain America & Black Widow but…

I have been working with LIDAR generated pointclouds for 7 years now and I can tell you LIDAR has some fundamental problems that have always concerned me with driverless cars and robotic vision.
