  Robotic bartender understands verbal orders and tells jokes
 
From gizmag: (URL) 12, 2006 If there was a list of professions least likely to see humans replaced by machines, the barkeeper would logically be on that list. But students in the final year of a computational linguistics and phonetics course at the (...) (20 years ago, 13-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Thanks to Michael Barrett Andersen for helping me find the answer: the latest firmware is version 0328, and is available as part of the Mindstorms 2.5 SDK, which is downloadable freely from Lego. (20 years ago, 12-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)

  Help me improve the Wikipedia article about Mindstorms?
 
The Wikipedia article about Lego Mindstorms ((URL) is really paltry on the details. There's nothing in there about Spybotics, or Cybermaster, or Micro Scout, or the improvements in the RCX firmware releases, or how the RCX can control the Scout, or (...)

  Re: On not hearing from LEGO (Was: So, who IS in the MDP?)
 
(...) Well I can confirm that I received no reply to my gmail.com address, and as gmail keeps all my spam filtered mail, can confirm that it wasn't filtered either. And as I *did* receive a "sorry try again next time" mail for my ambassador (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.lego)
 
  On not hearing from LEGO (Was: So, who IS in the MDP?)
 
(...) Well since this thread is still being watched I'll make two announcments. First, I was also fortunate enough to be in the MDP (actually, I was in the MUP expansion prior to this point, but close enough). And it is an amazing and *busy* group (...)

  What's the latest RCX firmware?
 
What's the latest version of the standard RCX firmware (for use with NQC)? And how do I obtain it? I purchased the original RIS 1.0 and then the 1.5 upgrade. I found a 2.0 beta firmware online for free download from Lego (part of the 2.0 beta SDK); (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Connect Galvanometer to a NXT motor port
 
I would like to be able to connect a Galvanometer to the NXT. Using this galvanometer with the ultrasound sensor attached one could get a wide angular "look" of any obstacles within one snapshot in time. Essentially creating a "radar". The other use (...)

  Re: So, who IS in the MDP?
