In honor of the thread name, y'all should go look at my Rt. 66 pictures here: [link]
'Objects In Space'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I have failed to give a food report in a few days! Mostly eating leftovers and just bits of perishables from the fridge. I have managed to eat up a chocolate bar from the pantry though. Taking one for the team. Brought some tea bags into work and am using them rather than having afternoon coffee.
I'm hungry.
Top 15?
ETA: Oooh, lucky 13!
I've never been on Route 66. But I live near I-66.
I did much of route 66 but not on purpose when I moved out to Cali.
Internet's mostly broken at work. But not to here. God bless a lazy DNS server. Or whatever the magic is.
I'm going to get Chinese in a few. Hopefully, they're resolved their steam table issue, and will have scallion pancakes.
Wow, shiny new thread. Love the title. I need some kicks.
I've never been on Route 66. But I live near I-66.
I've driven on parts of it. And on I-40, which parallels Route 66.
Should we be talking about that "new car smell" and arguing over who gets the window seats?
Holy crap, we've got robot avatars now
There's a big meeting across the country. What do you do?
1960: You fly there.
1980: You have a conference call.
2000: You do a video conference.
2010: You fire up your robot avatar at the location.
Pardon? Yep, it's for real, folks. A company called Anybots has created a prototype of a robot that will serve as a person's physical presence in a remote location. You log in through the Internet and after a few keystrokes the 'bot, called QB, comes alive, leaving its charging station and ready to meet, brainstorm, greet visitors or just generally creep people out.
