I give that at the very least 5 years for durability 10 for acceptance. Though I what I really want right now is precision tracking chips in balls/pucks so at any given point you know where and how fast the item of play is going .

Plus I like the same tech in ever Helmet in the NFL simply because I think it be awesome to watch a game being played out on Madden in real time for kicks and giggles.

What as that smart AI website that answers all your questions? Someone posted it 2 years ago, or so but i forgot what it was called.

Wolfram Alpha is probably the greatest thing ever. In fact the almighty "Siri" gets all of "her" answers from Google and Wolfram Alpha.

man i could have sworn wolfram alpha was smarter.

I asked it "which movie pits batman vs wolverine"

any person could guess The Prestige but Wolfram can't figure it out. I reworded it a few times to make it easier and it still didnt figure it out

i saw that years ago, but thats still awesome, i could use stuff like that. I always thought, what would I do if i had a billion dollara, and part of it would go to re-designing how EVERYONE lives. If you think about it how much does it really cost to buy a brand new $800-$3000 fridge, and how much does it cost to make it. If done correctly you could get the cost down so a high tech fridge only costs 50 dollars to make and then you just sell it for $100 or less. Or cars or any other thing that I think is vastly over priced. I think a million dollars in development could save everyone trillions of dollars.

the car repair industry looks like a joke when you consider how cars are put together in the first place

So I watched a related video on the first link you posted, and then realized there's actually a ****-ton of nudity on YouTube...some of which has been up for several years. Nice.

Microsoft every once and a while vision of the future. This is pretty cool.

Yeah that has some pretty ingenious things, unfortunately in order to make all of that work Microsoft would have to have a monopoly on everything.

Not really. Just standards for everything to talk. Which, ironically , Microsoft isn't very bad with being willing to use other standards when they haven't already painted themselves into a corner, *cough* IE *cough*.

That was posted earlier in this thread.

The Never Wet stuff is really cool. Can't wait to get my hands on that for my shoes, belts, raincoat, kid, etc.

Stogi · « **Reply #371 on:** November 14, 2011, 02:19:47 PM »

The only problem I have with the Never Wet is what do I do if I have to clean my shoes, shirts, ties, etc...from actual dirt and grime?
