Cybertecture Mirror

And now, a cybernetic mirror that fills you in with all the vital information of the day while you shave and updates you about your health while you brush your teeth.

Great.  Not only do I have to look at my unkempt, groggy mug first thing in the morning before I've had my tea,now I have to tell some damn cheery nanny of a gadget to piss off.

Could be worse.  Share and enjoy.

    I don't know. As long as you could configure it yourself then I wouldn't see the problem with this. Perhaps a mirror running a Linux variant?

    Now I'm thinking what I'd like to have on my mirror in the mornings. The latest news? Latest comics?

    Yes, get rid of the scales and things, though. Last thing I'd want to be reminded of in the mornings is my steadily-increasing mortality; I find it hard to get up as it is.

    (Brainwave! Combine this mirror with that cgi body thing you covered recently. Now that would make getting up easier.)

    Wunderbear: I've been expecting to see an '@' in the mirror ever since I was an undergrad playing way too much Moria and Nethack.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
