Open Thread: Millionaire Michael Moore Demands Rich People Give Back ‘Our’ Money
March 3, 2011 No CommentWhile shameless hypocrisy from filmmaker Michael Moore is not exactly news, it is highly entertaining. True to form, Moore told Laura Flanders of GRITtv that wealthy folks' money is not actually theirs, but is in fact “a national resource.” They're sitting on the money, they're using it for their own — they're putting it someplace else with no interest in helping you with your life, with that money. We've allowed them to take that. That's not theirs, that's a national resource, that's ours. We all have this — we all benefit from this or we all suffer as a result of not having it. I think we need to go back to taxing these people at the proper rates. They need to — we need to see these jobs as something we some, that we collectively own as Americans and you can't just steal our jobs and take them someplace else. Video at RCP . Left unsaid was whether Moore will wire the money or just send a check. Thoughts?

By now you’ve seen Apple’s Smart Cover , right? The mind blowing cover (don’t call it a case) pretty much stole the show during yesterday’s iPad 2 press event, causing children to weep at the sight of our exploded bodies. Thing is, we’ve seen the design before. Oh sure, Apple improved upon it significantly, but there’s no mistaking its InCase Convertible Magazine Jacket heritage. See the two slug it out on video after the break in some kind of weird reverse KIRF cage match. We guess 2011 really is the year of the copycats .

You might not yet be aware of this, but Apple’s policy towards web browsers is to treat the entire internet as their content. As a result, all browsers on the iOS App Store come with a minimum age requirement of 17 and the same rule will apply to them on the Mac App Store. Opera , the first non-native web explorer to make it in Apple’s new desktop app repository is taking a humorous approach to things, with VP Jan Standal saying he’s “not sure if, at that age, people are ready to use such an application. It’s very fast, you know, and it has a lot of features.” All that said, Opera’s willing to be reckless if you are, and will totally let you download its Mac software through its homepage — no age or credit card checks required, though you might want to ask for your parents’ permission first.

March 3, 2011 No Comment
You pick up your first tan leather roundball at the age of 9, you practice religiously for a decade before you can even feel worthy of calling yourself a basketball player , and then you find a video online of a robotic seal that can shoot better than you after just a few weeks in the lab. Yep, some Taiwanese know-it-alls have put together a robo-seal that converts 99 percent of shots (admittedly with a toy ball launched at a toy hoop) within a three-meter range. It’s basically just an articulating arm with stereo vision for some good old depth perception, but it’s sophisticated enough to maintain its killer accuracy even if the target is moved from its spot. That’s more lethal that Shaq or Karl Malone’s elbows ever were. Video’s after the break, skip to the 1:05 mark if you don’t care about the details of how it’s done.
