George Carlin is no longer with us. That sucks. The Big Picture collected a lot of his best bits from YouTube in one blog post. His records were an important part of early teenage years. He seemed so subversive to us in the late 70s and early 80s. Then later as an adult I realized he wasn’t just funny, he was often right. I met him back in 2002 when I ended up at the same craps table as him in Vegas. 15 (More) Amazing Tree Houses from Around the World: Unusual, Ecological and Inspired Designs

MIT Professor and celebrated robotics researcher and pioneer Rodney Brooks recently wrote an article for IEEE's Spectrum magazine presenting his view on the Singularity. The Singularity is the idea that there is a well defined and fast approaching moment in time when artificial intelligence will match and eventually start to surpass human intelligence.

Unlike the rest of the writers here I don’t follow erotic PC games, so I didn’t know Nude Maker used to do erotic games.
