Re: Alarmclock puzzle (Slightly OT)
I think that the ultimate thing to get one up in the morning would be having a r/c drug-dispenser under/on your skin that would dump shitloads of caffeine into your bloodstream. I think there exists a type of patch that dispenses insulin, for people with diabetes. That with like a RFID-trigger or programmable timer would be the ultimate. -- Kim Alvefur [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Alarmclock puzzle (Slightly OT)
Years ago I imagined such a pill with a known delay (e.g. the time it would take for the outer casing to dissolve). Pills would be available with different delays (different thickness of casing). Thus, you would take a caffeine tablet with say an 8 hour delay and go to sleep. 8 hours later you would awake feeling alert and refreshed, and as if you'd already had your morning coffee. Life would be perfect.

Nice idea, for the caffeine users. A friend of mine used to keep a 2-litre bottle of Coke by his bed, so that in the mornings he could get enough of a caffeine hit to get out of bed and make the first coffee of the day...
