Over at Guardian UK they have great video from Sega of their upcoming humanoid robot, Ema (pronounced “Emma”) — designed in female form. Finally! I’ve been waiting and waiting for this particular style of bot to have boobs for what seems like ever, and I especially love how they’re spinning it as a form of…

I think
… that the new Blackberry would totally beat the iPhone in a wet t-shirt contest, tits down. Or rather, tits up. Even though I’m waiting with baited breath for the new Helio Ocean, the Blackberry Bold is the hottest date in town right now. And I have a Nokia N95 for livestreaming. Seriously, Bold. C’mere,…
Twitter from the block
I’m having fun playing with Twoorl and Plurk. It’s almost like every social networking site has an affected gang name. I’m not sure what they’re useful for yet… ;) (post title reference)
The incredibly bizarre Hans Reiser case and the “techno-geek S&M crowd”
Admittedly, I didn’t follow the Reiser murder case as it unfolded, though I probably should have. I get the distinct sense looking through all the reporting and media post-conviction, that it’s highly possible it touched a circle of mine, some way or another. What drew my attention to the case this weekend wasn’t that Hans…
Pixel sex
Images via today’s other distraction, Hentai Park’s screenshot gallery. Today the adult blogosphere’s abuzz with the release of Grand Theft Auto IV, which takes place in NYC. When I was there last week, the posters for GTA were covering everything — here at home in SF they’re only in a few neighborhoods. The new release…
Gadget lust
Just wiped drool off my keyboard… 20G, comes in black — not cheap, not even out yet, but the in-depth review of the Asus Eee 900 is here. Want. Lust. Desire. Tool fetish. This could make me a super blogger! Sorry, Air.
Pirate Bay: Completely uncensored blogs
First we had Fuck Like A Pirate Day — now, it looks like hosted blogging might get a chance to revive the free-thinking spirit that made blogging so powerful in the first place… until people started getting kicked off of WordPress, Blogger, LiveJournal and other hosted blog sites for posting about the “wrong” things. Like…
The technosexual orientation
Image from this gallery. The first thing I thought was, oh great: now, to be proper it’s going to have to be the called LGBTIQQT Center from now on. Torture me no more, infuriating all-inclusive acronym! Actually, that’s not the first thing I thought after reading the much-linked, extremely worthwhile Gizomdo interview Technosexual: One Man’s…
SXSWi: Sexual Privacy Panel [video, audio, thoughts]
Sneaky pre-panel setup image by George Ruiz. Sexual Privacy Online: it was a hell of a panel. Horror stories, legal aspects, hacker input, Gawker/Fleshbot ethics, being stalked, being outed, deciding what to post and when (or if) to remove sexual content, our rights to privacy — and our right to be left alone. Discussion raged,…
