Another crazy use for the spare 70%

Another crazy use for the spare 70% - 07/06/2000 07:21

Since we've got 70% of the processing capacity going spare (assuming we aren't running a Beowulf cluster...) how about this for a crazy use for the Mk2...

Plug in a VR mic and boot up the 'empeg voice stress analyser'!!!

Think about it, while the music plays, and you casually chat with your passengers, the empeg is subtly letting you know if you can trust the shifty buggers not to steal your state-of-the-art car audio system

If you are hearing the truth, a little smiley face appears on the empeg display. If you see a frown, kick them out at the next motorway services...

I can imagine the sort of conversation...

Me: "So, what do you think of my empeg?"

Passenger: "It's awesome!!"

Empeg: "They're not lying"

Me: "So, when are you going to give me that £20 you owe me?"

Passenger: "Next week, when I get paid"

Empeg: "They're lying"

Me: "Right... you're walking you cheapskate!"

(kicks ungrateful passenger out on side of road)

Me: "Empeg. Play Britney Spears"

Empeg: "You have got to be joking"

Me: Geoff was really bored one afternoon...

Empeg: You're not lying!
