[ale] Raspberry Pi and ... Of all the projects for a microcontroller... OMG....

[Jim Kinney]

I thought "Sex and the City" was off the air....

Add a "pornoPi" to a haptic feedback pair of shorts with "innie" or 
"outie" adapters (or both?!) ("hydraulic action" as a marketing term 
comes to mind) and hack in an XBox Kinect and Wham! - a remote "Party 
Machine" with no pregnancy or STD potential.

The print-it-yourself revolution will thoroughly upset, enrage and/or 
disgust some portion of society. :-)

cool hack!

Where does one get dippable silicone for totally encasing electronics? 
That has huge potential for oceanography as well as water supply and 
sewer system evaluations.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
