Question by nfsjunkie91: What applications can be used to program Lego Mindstorm kits? A robotics class at my school uses RCX and NXT bricks, but we don’t have any software for programming either one of them. I need software with a simple programming interface that lets us program most of the basic functions into these bricks. Any help would be appreciated.

Picture sufficiently related: bones.
I’ve broken my left (good) arm twice doing things (unspeakable ones!) I shouldn’t have, and now I’ve got a plate and a bunch of screws and shit in there that set off the metal detector at the airport and get me pulled aside for a groping (which I don’t mind). But now doctors are 3-D printing bone-healing “scaffolding” to help mend broken bones. But NOT hearts. God, go cry to your diary like a normal person.
“It can make bone scaffold using the material that you want very similar to human bone and it can fix the defect that the physician wants,” Susmita Bose, a professor of mechanical and materials engineering at the university, explains in the video above.
In lab tests, after just a week in a medium with immature human bone cells, the scaffold supported a network of new bone cells.
Susmita and colleagues aim to insert these scaffolds into human bodies to repair broken bones. As the bone-like material dissolves, real bone tissue in the body will grow over it.
Awesome, but do you think we’ll ever get to the point where we can print and replace ENTIRE BONES? And, if so, what about boners? “What about them?” How do they work? One minute you’re soft, the next you’re watching Jurassic Park and your pants are all tight — it’s weird!

Thanks to todd the swallow, Luke and Amelia, who agree doctors should be printing their prescriptions instead of scribbling them. No shit they should — one time the pharmacy gave me menopause hormones instead of antibiotics!

Nintendo couldn’t have put all those glorious names of third party developers up alongside its Wii U announcement earlier this month without giving those companies at least a glimpse at the actual hardware they’d have to code on. Sega Europe’s Gary Dunn was among those to have tinkered with a development kit before we even knew what the Wii U would be called, but he says that Nintendo intends to refresh that hardware to the latest prototype model at some point before the end of July. According to Gary, coding for the new system is pretty straightforward, and though he wouldn’t get into specifics about performance, he does expect more details to emerge once Nintendo starts distributing the latest version of the Wii U dev platform. Asked about how it compares to the Xbox 360 and PS3, Sega’s dev leader simply said the new Nintendo console is “different.”

Somebody’s old-ass grandma in San Diego is making a fortune selling $ 60 suicide kits online designed to enable a person to constantly inhale pure helium gas (not included) and die. Me? I plan on accidentally inhaling a mouthful of titties when I’m like 400 and choking to death.
Charlotte said her sales were nearly $ 100,000 last year. That’s more than 1,600 suicide kits. The business is legal because of a loophole in California law but many question the ethics behind it.
She said she does this work for those people and that she’ll continue as long as the law allows.
*looking at picture* That, uh, that looks suspiciously like a cardboard box, length of tube, and a plastic bag with the elastic from a gym sock sewn to it. Retail value at Home Depot? $ 8. “Dead people don’t need money!” Ha — and neither do 91-year old grammas. *flipping mattress* TELL ME WHERE IT’S HIDDEN YOU OLD BAG.

Thanks to patrick and Diane, who agree if you’re thinking about offing yourself to seek help. Just sayin’, sometimes we all need somebody to lean on. Especially me (you’d swear I was born with only one leg!)

The kit includes a urinal cake, plastic cover, cake holder, clear plastic window, circle template and an all important latex glove. Only $ 6.98. It’s a real pisser.

Man, leakers don’t sleep! That hush-hush Kinect beta program is indeed in full effect, and while hardware is en route to giddy testers, the accompanying Xbox 360 Dashboard update has already been distributed — and promptly leaked. Joystiq has a gallery of screenshots from the new interface, including a revamped Avatar editor and some navigational alterations to account for using your body as the controller. We like this just for the humor value, including the note above instructing you to take a break if you get “sore” and the full-page list of prohibitions against talking about or showing the beta program’s interface. Ah well.
