Paint.net is another photo editor that you have to download. However, it’s features are very impressive for a software that is completely free. User interface is similar to the classic Microsoft Paint that you have with Windows, beefed up. Many people consider Paint.net to be the best free Photoshop alternative.

Some other Windows desktop photo editors to consider: Style Pix, Photoscape, Phantasmagoria, Foto Graphix, and Foto Filtre.

By Evan Ackerman

Next door to CES is the Adult Entertainment Expo, and as a journalist, it’s my obligation to go. And I heard that the world’s first sex robot was going to be making its (her?) debut. On Friday I spent about 10 minutes interviewing the CEO of True Companion about the robot to get an overview and some background, and we’ve been promised a live demo today.

We’ve got a video after the break that’s probably NSFW, since it shows a scantily clad (but not naked) android and there is some mild discussion of sex. I’d probably call it PG-13, but certainly not R or X. If this type of thing bothers you, no worries, just skip this post.

Here are the facts from the press release:

-Roxxxy TrueCompanion is anatomically consistent with a human

-She can hear you, speak to you, feel your touch, carry on a conversation, and have an orgasm

-Artificial intelligence engine lets Roxxxy learn your likes and dislikes

-Comes preloaded with 5 separate girlfriend personalities, including:

-Frigid Farrah (reserved and shy)
-Wild Wendy (outgoing and adventurous)
-S&M Susan (”ready to provide your pain/pleasure fantasies”)
-Young (”she is oh so young (barely 18) and waiting for you to teach her”)
-Mature Martha (”she is very experienced and would like to teach you”)

-You can design your own personality profiles and share them online

I’m not really sure what I can possibly add to that, so here’s the interview:

Dear All,

WHEN A LIZARD CAN, WHY CAN’T WE?

This is a true story that happened in Japan.

In order to renovate thehouse,

someone in Japanbreaks open the wall.

Japanese houses normally have a hollow spacebetween the wooden walls.

When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there

because a nail from outside hammered into one of its feet.

He sees this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as when he checked the nail,

it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was! first built.

What happened?

The lizard has survived in such position for 10 years!!!!!!!!!!

In a dark wall partition for 10 years without moving, it is impossible and mind-boggling.

Then he wondered howthis lizard survived for 10 years! without moving a single step–since its foot was

nailed!

So he stopped his work and observed the lizard, what it has been doing, and what and how it has been eating.

Later, not knowing from where it came, appears another lizard, with food in its mouth.

Ah! He was stunned and touched deeply.

For the lizard

that was stuck by nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 10 years…

Imagine? it has been doing that untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner.

Think, will u do that to your partner?

Think that will you do it to your Mom,
Who brought you after a big struggle of Nine long months ?

Or at least to your Dad, Friends, Co-workers, brothers and Sisters?
Imagine what a small creature can do that a creature blessed with a brilliant mind can’t.

As information and communication technology advances,

our access to information becomes faster and faster.

But the

distance between human beings . . . is it getting closer as well?
Please never abandon your loved ones

Never Say U R Busy When They Really Need You …

You May Have The Entire World At Your Feet…..

But You Might Be The Only World To Them….

A Moment of negligence might break the very heart which loves you thru all odds..

Before you say something just remember..It takes a moment to Break but an entire life to make…

To Live Use Heart And to Survive Use Brain
