I just want all of you to know that you're making this thread very hard for me to score cause I'm not sure who's exactly right and who isn't. that is all. you may carry on now.

I mean no offence to Americans, but this whole situation was classic USA-media-behaviour. The rest of the world is taking American affairs less and less seriously with every new news blast

I actually wouldn't mind waving at my printer to perform tasks from across the room maybe. As far as in computers, I can only see it really being useful for giving presentations or displaying 3D models or something of that sort and even then it's slightly gimmicky.

Submission + - 19-Yr-Old Develops Ocean Cleanup Array That Could Remove 7.3M Tons of Plastic (inhabitat.com)

Submitted by formaggio on Monday March 25, 2013 @06:34PM

formaggio writes: 19-year-old Boyan Slat has unveiled plans to create an Ocean Cleanup Array that could remove 7,2500,000 tons of plastic waste from the world’s oceans. The device consists of an anchored network of floating booms and processing platforms that could be dispatched to garbage patches around the world. Instead of moving through the ocean, the array would span the radius of a garbage patch, acting as a giant funnel. The angle of the booms would force plastic in the direction of the platforms, where it would be separated from plankton, filtered and stored for recycling.
