Who farts first?

I found this TV show so hilarious that I took a video with my digital camera so you can watch it. They put eight people in a room, and everyone has to fart if they want to go home.

Virtual humanoid

I liked this pictures from Mainichi.jp

Humanoide virtual

Is a system developed by NTT Docomo. Using special glasses you can see computer generated graphics “mixed/integrated” with reality. Right now, they managed to make a simulation where you see a girl but it’s just a green dummy. Look at this second picture, in the screen you can see what the person with the glasses is seeing.

Of course, one of the first applications of this technologies is gonna be video games πŸ˜‰ It seems that some VC firms are already interested.

Expensive bicycles without padlock

Japan is possibly one of the safest developed countries in the world, criminality is very low (even though we have the Yakuza). In this post I show some pictures of “expensive” bikes without any padlock or security system; these bicycles could be stolen so easily! And I say “expensive” bicycles, because “normal” bicycles without protection can be seen everyday here in Japan.
