Swarm robotics, huh? That doesn't really give me the warm and fuzzies for some reason...

I'd love to do both, but moon, no question.

I have a relatively new car thats already had an engine swap. Nicknamed "the wreck" or "Raset" in Swedish. No, it wasn't my driving, the shop fucked up, long story.

My other car, an old Renault box van, hasn't got a name. It looks like it does, but inspiration hasn't struck yet and it might not ever.

To name a car, the car needs to deserve it, have personality. Not any old car gets named.

There was a joke template some years ago about how this coffee machine now is voice activated but it needs to learn the voices so keep trying. It worked once so that was fun.

I sort of knew I was incompetent as a cat, but hearing that my cats agree with it is pretty harsh. It tracks though.

Never let the engineer make the slides. I say that as an engineer.

One of my favorite movies is Black Cat, White Cat (1998) and they are talking about "prima naphta" (Serbian? Spelling?) which was translated as gasoline. Is the translation wrong and they are actually talking about diesel or is the map not correct? Or something else?

I guarantee that sign is there because of a previous incident.

The funny thing is that the "extra strength" placebos likely have a better chance of working. The more elaborate and involved the placebo is, the greater the chance of it actually working even if you know it is a placebo. Our minds are weird. As always, I'm too lazy to look up the actual study so I don't know if it was a quality study or not.
