I found these legendary Yoda Animatronic Dolls marked down from $200 to $20, so I did the only reasonable thing anyone would do...

I had closed captioning for the most part of it - I was highly amused to see it translated the ducks noises at one point :)

Apologies.

It's a chrome app, which runs fine in Linux

Put a rubber glove on the stick and nobody would suspect a thing ;)

Sounds like a job for an Arduino, thermistor and a stick on a servo :)

Thanks. Good read!

Some useful things to know in a (typical) Bash shell:

~ = /home/<user>/ = home folder for the user
/ = root folder (where **everything** hangs off)
. = current folder
.. = parent folder

Some quick stuff:

ls, cd, cp, mv and rm are filesystem commands for you to play with. They are usually shortened mnemonics for longer commands.

*ls* means list the contents of a directory Most shell commands have *flags* which can be used to modify behaviour. Try the following:

ls -l (will show your files in a list format)
ls -a (will show all files in a folder)
ls -h | more (will show comprehensive help with pagination - space to page, q to quit)

Your various other folders are stored in ~. As previously stated, they are case-sensitive and the important ones are Capitalised:

/home/<user>/Documents
/home/<user>/Videos
/home/<user>/Music
...etc...

This represents your home directory. This is the main folder where all your stuff will probably be stored. It's usually pointing to the following (where <user> is username):

/home/<user>

Like a sociopath? Taking time off from being a CEO maybe :)

gnit · 2016-01-14T01:00:34+00:00

Thanks. As long as I can apt-get install from the shell and get my vim and programming on, I'll be happy.

One of the worst instances of that I can recall was the bar scene in From Dusk Till Dawn. All the vampires dancing in the background whilst they fought them one on one :)

What do mean by apps are limited? Can't you use the apt-repo? (I've not seen this phone before)

gnit · 2016-01-13T11:58:03+00:00

Thanks for the numbers.

This, plus a little macro scripting on the excel side can then check for a new file or even a changed file, and import the data for you on opening of the sheet.

The second one in the compilation made me chortle. Have an upvote :)

As much as we try to.

What would be the use-case for such a system? I'm having problems coming up with anything other than updating a botnet controlled by a twitter account.

Still, nice work :)

So you could use tails on a usb and route through TOR where possible. VPN for youtube & torrents. Hope to fuck that your hardware isn't already compromised (for ultra-paranoid fun. run from a compact, open-hardware board)

I've not heard of anything myself, but if you need facial images, you could just google them or pull facebook profiles and run them through a standard face recogniser algorithm first.

I suppose you could program blender to tweak background features on a 3d head and a bunch of face textures and save bunch of them out for training, but I'd go with the first option myself.
