PICS VIII: 10% LARGER THAN PICS VII

"Facial corsets", for painful but knife-free alternatives to plastic surgery.




A facial recognition project for picking faces out of a crowd, sponsored by NEC.




A novel prosthetic foot from the person who brought us the prosthetic arm with a prehensile spiral plastic tentacle.


A plate from a 1974 article about video games by Stewart Brand. The plate shows Alan Kay and colleagues, and their Dynabook mockup (which became the basis for modern tablet computing devices, by way of the Apple Newton). This plate also shows someone using a mouse; the people at PARC were working with mice regularly at this time, although it had its origins with Engelbart's NLS project.

Maybe it's too early in the morning for me, because I saw that 'Brokeback Mountain 2" image and thought that both of the people in it were Weird Al Yankovic.

It's true, Al has an incredible rack.

I can't stop watching this.

This meme is hilarious.

That imageset bothers me in ways I find hard to describe.

First off, it's perfectly transparent about advertising snickers. But, it doesn't even get their ad right.

Second, it implies that (1) God speaks english, (2) he's unreasonable in his desire to kill everyone, (3) he's only trying to kill everyone because he's hungry, and (4) a candy bar will make him feel better.

In other words, the person who initially made it completely failed (on many levels) to comprehend the basic ideas of both The Bible and candy bar commercials, and yet decided to combine them anyway. Probably, if I posted this rant to him directly, he'd have a hissy fit and complain about how I'm ruining his fun.

I guess what really bothers me is that the world contains people like the one who made that photoset and posted it initially without realizing anything was wrong with it.

I'm fucking dying.

That phrase bothers me in ways I find hard to describe.

First off, it's perfectly transparent about advertising sex and dying. But, it doesn't even get their ad right.

Second, it implies that (1) Phrases on the internet and elsewhere can kill people, (2) that it kills you in such a way that you still have time to tell us about it, (3) that you have nothing better to do with your final moments on this earth, and (4) the Welsh have learnt to type in English.

In other words, the person who makes such a comment completely fails (on many levels) to comprehend the basic ideas of both fucking and dying, and yet decided to combine them anyway. Probably, if I posted this rant to him directly, he'd have a hissy fit and complain about how I'm ruining his fun.

So far as I can tell, the ducks are real, and everything else is a reflection.
