Microsoft to make Code for POSIX OS

Friday, August 24th, 2007

In the hopes of allowing operating system diversity in India, Microsoft will create several projects around Linux, Unix, and BSD. The deadline will appear in about 1 month. Microsoft hopes to grab some market share in India for Windows. Microsoft’s goal is operating system interoperability.

Microsoft will commission a team of “interoperability experts” to better facilitate working in the Linux world. This will be comprised of key developers from both sides of the coding circle.

Last year Microsoft created a council of experts in the US to assist people using microsofts products in a non windows environment. This council will meet bi-annually. Its a normal progression for Microsoft to establish a similar council in India

DARPA Builds Droid Pilots

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

DARPA has made driods that can pilot a plane during air to air refueling. This occurs when the fuel planes refuels an airborne jet, in flight. Its a technique  thats difficult at best.
Theoretically, an unmanned craft with the ability to air to air refuel would only need to land for occassional craft maintenance

In the past 12 months the droid pilots have successfully done an air to air refueling 11 times without any human input. The jet used in testing was an F18. The android was able to connect to the refueling jet in the toughest of conditions.

Not aonly could the robot pilot connect and take fuel in turbulence but even did so as the tanker was in a turn.
Human pilots have followed tankers through turns, but never connected during one.

Game Breaks Players Limbs

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

The game “arm spirit” had to be removed from Japanese game rooms this past week after displaying inhuman strength, breaking the arms of 3 players.

The game is a version of arm wrestling, but your opponent is just an arm, connected to a box that beeps while snapping limbs on human players .

Atlus game distributor said their recall was just a precaution, implying that the Japanese should buck up and get tough!

An Atlus spokesperson says that their machine is only as strong as a muscular man, and that properly trained a woman can beat it.

I wonder how the spokesperson would do against the machine?

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

Your younger daughter a bit bored? Does she need a fun healthy activity that she care share with friends? I have the answer!

Cartoon Doll Emporium.

Its curiously addictive. Cartoon Doll Emporium is one of the fastest growing online communities for “tween” girls. They have fun online activities, like dressing some of their favorite stars in fashions they choose, and often times they can choose to change the colors of clothes, hairs, etc. Its YOUR style after all!

Cartoon Doll Emporium also has “webkinz”. These are hand drawn dolls that you take care of online, dress up and play with. Theres even tools that allow you to send the dolls and webkinz to your MySpace.

Another big thing alot of tweens enjoy is dressing up the Hannah Montana superdoll at Cartoon Doll Emporium. Yeah I tried it, its interesting because there was so many different combinations of clothes and accessories, plus I even got to pick my own pet.
