Someone reminded me of the Channel 4 dating programme Naked Attraction and I really want it to be broadcast in the USA so I can watch the moral outrage they're bound to have over it

Also it'll help get rid of the stereotype they have of us being all prim and proper

Elon Musk's hyperloop project is now literally just a tunnel

His company spent two years and fuck knows how much money developing a tunnel

I can only imagine that the BFR is just a catapult at this point

I came across this, a video about little tiny wireless LEDs

I'm thinking that those, combined with an induction loop in a necklace or something, might be useful for cool cyberpunky light up makeup effects

Or hiding wires might just be easier, I don't know, I know bugger all about things you apply to faces

opossums are good

Okay this Huawei thing is really bringing up a few issues around a lot of standards bodies being based in the US

The SD Association is based in California which means that Huawei can't say their products support SD cards

And the Wi-Fi Alliance is based in Texas which means Huawei won't be to certify that their products work with wi-fi

And the Bluetooth SIG is based in Washington, which means they can't use Bluetooth

This is a problem

paws are pretty damn awesome

if I didn't have these gert big wiggly arms I'd totally have paws

Miles "Tails" Prower should get his own movie

robots are good

"May ends on the 31st" would have been a good headline

At least we've still got "June marks end of May"

fuckity bye

If you're in the UK or The Netherlands please go out and vote today in the EU elections

Ireland is tomorrow, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Latvia are on Saturday, and everyone else is on Sunday

speciesist imo

My sleep pattern is so fucked up at the moment my body thinks I'm somewhere in Siberia

now if it does homebrew stuff and has wide availability then I'll be interested, but as is not really

So this Playdate thingy, am I right in thinking it's $150 for basically 12 games that are, as yet, a complete mystery?

It looks neat but I for one don't have that sort of disposable cash on hand
