I read somewhere that there is a new technology being developed where a gummy but clear surface is able to reproduce certain shapes through electricity, so that it would not only be able to bring back the tactile keyboard but also be able to create a speaker anywhere on the screen.

I'm really going to miss physical keyboards. It's difficult to type on these smooth screens because there is no tactile feedback. I miss that spingy feel.

Yes, but the purpose of the song isn't to create good interpreting or translating skills. It's just a way for hearing ASL students to practice faster word recall, and for the to demonstrate/record what they know so far so that the instructor can decide what to instruct the students on next...

I think they just do it to improve their sign timing. Beginners sign very slowly because they have very slow vocab recall and very very slow grammar recall. With a song, you can't wait around a couple seconds to recall signs because you have to keep up with the beat. Also, songs are easier...

The girl isn't hurt at all? Weird...

From the half a year I worked at a convenient store / gas station, I've learned that the kinds of people who show up on a regular basis to buy cigarettes and lotto are not exactly the cream of the crop, if you know what I mean. There's a reason why they're stuck in this tiny town with just...

What about adults who own and like violent games? Will they be allowed to keep their collection even if they have kids?

I love to garden. I start my seedlings in March. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP9SRHAxmHA My usual crop is tomatoes, peppers, scallions, chives, cucumbers, zucchini (surprisingly easy and GIANT to grow), and pumpkin. Sometimes I'll also plant a sunflower.

ohnoooooo but you haven't become president yet!

The college has granted her a scholarship so that she can finish school.

We did -- we voted in record numbers. But we can't save a ship that was already sinking before we came aboard.

Maybe they did that because they were angry at how the US handles Russian adoptions. Adopted boy, 7, sent back alone to Russia - World news - Europe - Russia | NBC News

They don't call us "The Lost Generation" for nothing. We have put off moving out, put off getting married, put off having kids, and put off living our lives because of this economy.

The media hypothesized this part too. Just because he wasn't social does not guarantee he had autism. There are other conditions that can lead to asocial behavior.

It's true that getting help for a special needs kid is tough in schools. In my local school district, they moved to declassify more kids so that they could save money on special education costs. But as a low-income district, the kids have special needs at a higher rate than any of the...

It seems photomanipulations are more your thing than plain old photography. :)

It's because your body is more used to encountering certain kinds of foods, while they are not. Prime candidates of this category are: meat, beans, other proteins. If you eat beans everyday, then after a while, your body gets used to processing the beans and you end up farting less. But there...

oh boy, I can already see this. Billy: Hey! My backpack is bullet proof! Punch it! Sam: (Punches) Oww, it's so tough! Ben: How do you know it's really bullet proof? Did you shoot it? Billy: Well, no, but it's a backpack that's supposed to be Sam: Hey, Billy didn't you say your dad has a gun? We...

Has there been anything concrete saying the shooter was diagnosed in the autism spectrum? It sounds like something the media made up to get more parents attention to me. I've worked with autistic kids and they have generally shown NO emotion. That's kind of their condition... they are...

There's not much of a difference if you are too young to remember ever using the other accent. Then it's just like never having learnt it in the first place. :shock: I know lots of second-generation Koreans like that. They have videos of themselves talking full Korean when they're 5 or 6, but...
