Well, you've already decided that "racists will go to great lengths to try to rationalize their bigotry". You probably decided that a long time ago, probably before even examining the facts involved. But you want to call me prejudiced?

I have tolerance for all but the intolerant. Why is that so hard for bigots to understand? It's not a paradox. It doesn't involve any twisted logic. It's really fucking simple.

WTF slashdot?! A blatantly racist claim with no backing gets modded to +4 Insightful with NOTHING backing it up? Not even a Wikipedia article? Not even a link to a white supremacist blog?

You moderators suck shit.

um... ok, so its silicone rubber coated in wax. Heat the wax and the silicone can flex because the wax is fluid. Let it cool and the wax hardens. That doesn't sound even remotely durable to me. How is this useful?

Didn't you watch the video?! It's just like the Terminator! Also, kittens, because they're cute and soft.

I don't know why everybody has to be so skeptical nowadays.

Yes but isn't this how a general intelligence is built up? Take my eye for instance, an amazing sensor that feeds into my brain. is the signal immediately fed to my consciousness? Certainly not. There is a massive ammount of preprocessing happening, from detecting edges, to noticing slight changes from frame to frame and discarding the irrelevant, to many other things.

I suspect that this is how a general intelligence will be built up.
