A Forex slot machine. Basically a slot machine lookalike that puts the money into extremely short-term, heavily leveraged Forex transactions without further input from the investor. It's not gambling, it's investing, so it's legal everywhere, and it's not that different from what a lot of idiot Forex traders do. A programmer teamed up with a brokerage firm could put out a web-based prototype in a month, but it could make millions assuming it isn't shut down.

Puppy Party Inc. You sign a waiver and pay a fee, and you get to go in a room and play with a bunch of puppies or kittens or the like. I'm talking a blanket of golden lab puppies.

You get 20 minutes for $20 or something like that. You could also combine this idea with beer, but in that case you'd have to give them a credit card before you start, and if you in any way hurt the animals you not only face criminal charges, you'd have to pay a massive fine and get dick-punched.

How about this one that's gone through my mind, and I really think someone could try this to change the world:

Okay, so in high school science class we literally made water out of thin air. We piped oxygen and hydrogen into a beaker, then added fire, and the ignition chemically bonded the gases into pure water. Thinking about that, I later one day started thinking about chemical filtration, and learned that the technology is there to filtrate things to the elemental level. So my device would be set up in such a way that there would be a tank filtered to only take in oxygen molecules from the air, and another to only take in hydrogen. These would combine in the machine, and it would add the ignition to create fresh water in any part of the world. It occurs to me that in order to make this viable it would have to be very large, and likely expensive, but it is exactly the sort of thing that philanthropist groups could use to better all mankind in places where good, clean water is a scarcity.

Yeah pretty much the only hydrogen compounds that show up in the air are methane (.0002%) and water vapour (depends on humidity 1-5%). One of those is already water, and the other one turns into water when you burn it(also CO2). It is possible to trap condensation for water, but anything else would require the atmosphere to be so entirely different that you wouldn't need a giant water plant, you'd need armor to protect you from the explosions.

Also there's already desalination as a high-cost, fairly universal water source.

The internal memory of the dashboard of cars should remember what height you like your windows rolled down to. It would just be a simple value to remember for each window, probably only requiring KB of memory. It's annoying to play around with the buttons and find the sweet spot every time, but of course I can't leave them at that height when my car is parked outside for security reasons.

You know how hippies are always complaining about cluster bombs because like 40% of their victims are children? My idea is for facial recognition software to be built into every cluster bomb. So if someone comes to investigate the bomb, it scans them and checks their history. If they're an enemy soldier, a civilian adult or a kid who's either an orphan or has recently been a naughty little poo poo, it detonates. Otherwise it stays put.

What kind of exposure do you get from coolant? Is it a case of "poo poo, now I'm gonna have to be careful not to stay under my safe dose limit this month", or is it "oh, poo poo, get me in a skin-flaying shower right now before my genitals drop off"?

I read an article about how some law school, during exam time, takes a bunch of puppies from the shelter to go play with law students to help them relax. It's a drat good idea. You don't have to be a law student to get stressed. I'd pay money to go play with a basket of puppies.

imitation meat substitute

Minarch posted:

A farm where all the animals are given real nice homes, then when they die of old age they're processed for their meat. Then people who don't want to hurt animals can eat guilt-free beef! And since nobody's actually *killing* the animals, the farm could provide rare and exotic meats, like gorilla and bald eagle. :911:

Basically, a zoo where you can just eat the animals as they die.

This sounds like a good idea but would actually produce very tough meat with a much higher risk of Mad Cow disease, which can only form in "older" cattle (which is 24 months- old for normal cattle raised for meat.)

But if it was next to a highway and you didn't put up fences? Infinite roadkill. Which is obviously guilt free.

Not very much exposure at all, fortunately. I maybe picked up an extra mrem or 2 that day, no big deal. The problem would have been if any got inside me, or if I didn't get it all washed off of me. Over time it would have gotten bad, and it was mostly on my beautiful face so... But it was all washed off quick, none got up my nose or in my mouf or anything. I'm safe! Just with no shoes. Or pants. Or a shirt. Walking around cold concrete in your underpants in front of all your coworkers? Priceless
