Comment culture (Score 2) 25

It illustrates that culture is not unique to humans and that such behaviors need to be considered also in nature conservation."

Well, ok. But this is well established, and I don't think anybody was actually questioning it. Any even slightly social species that has any ability to learn is going to have culture, as it is defined here.

Comment Re:Corinthian Leather (Score 1) 218

this was just plastic.

It wasn't just plastic. It was real leather, produced by the Radel Leather Manufacturing Company in New Jersey. It actually wasn't anything different than the leather they had already been using in their cars. The only thing added was the word "Corinthian", which was meaningless in this context.

Comment Re:Speed "limiter" is a misnomer (Score 1) 406

The haptic feedback accelerator pedal is something I've wanted for a while. Have the pedal be slightly harder to push further down when at a certain speed. That won't stop you from going faster if you consciously want to, but it will make you naturally control your speed without even thinking about it. Though I would want to be able to specify where that point is (say, 5 or 10 mph over the speed limit).
