The Whoop.De.Doo Is A Pleasure Machine Dreamed Up By Roboticists

Another day, another highly advanced pleasure device on Indiegogo. This one is calledWhoop.De.Doo and comes to us from Anna Maresova, a designer in Prague.

Maresova, who studied at the Faculty of Art and Design of J. E. Purkyne University in Usti nad Labem as well as at the University of Derby, invented the system while working on her Master’s thesis, the aptly titled “A Set of Erotic Aids for Women.” She manufactured and sold her first product, Venus Balls, as an aid for Kegel improvement.

The new toy is being built by Bender Robotics in the Czech Republic and is surprisingly simple. Three built-in motors can be controlled from the base of the unit and you can set it to gently vibrate or move up and down the shaft. It was designed in conjunction with gynecologists and sexologists and is made of medical-grade silicone in the Czech Republic. Maresova, for her part, couldn’t imagine that so many people would be interested in her products.

“I was blown away by the reactions the designs were getting. It was clear I’d touched on an important topic. People of all ages, many of whom would have previously never had anything to do with sex toys, were suddenly talking and getting in touch and telling me how excited they were that I was doing this without making it look and feel like porn. There are many women in the world who want to have a sex toy but simply feel too intimidated by the prospect of buying one. And who can blame them? The sex toy market is drowning in kitsch that can be embarrassing for women to look at, let alone imagine using,” said Maresova.

The vibrator and Venus Balls combo costs $230 on Indiegogo. It’s pricey because it’s made entirely in the Czech Republic, a location not normally thought of as a hotbed of sex toy manufacturing. The team hopes to hit $100,000 to build the product.

“Only after the launch of the campaign did we fully realise that Czechs are rather liberal in comparison with other countries where human sexuality and hence sex toys are still not openly discussed topic. It would be great to change that,” said Maresova

Phoenix OS is (another) Android-as-a-desktop

Google Android may have been developed as a smartphone operating system (and later ported to tablets, TVs, watches, and other platforms), but over the past few years we’ve seen a number of attempts to turn it into a desktop operating system. One of the most successful has been Remix OS , which gives Android a taskbar, start menu, and an excellent window management system. The Remix OS team has also generated a lot of buzz over the past year, and this week the operating system gained a lot of new alpha testers thanks to a downloadable version of Remix OS that you can run on many recent desktop or notebook computers. But Remix OS isn’t the only game in town. Phoenix OS is another Android-as-desktop operating system, and while it’s still pretty rough around the edges, there are a few features that could make it a better option for some testers. Some background I first discovered Phoenix OS from a post in the Remix OS Google Group , although I’ve also found mentions of th

So, when will your device actually get Android Oreo?

Google officially just took the wraps off of Android Oreo, but there are still some questions left to be answered — most notably, precisely when each device will be getting the latest version of the mobile operating system. Due to Android’s openness and a variety of different factors on the manufacturing side, it’s not an easy question to answer, but we’ll break it down best we can. First the good news: If your device was enrolled in the Android Beta Program, you’ll be getting your hands on the final version of the software “soon,” according to Google. Exactly what that means remains to be seen, but rest assured that you’ll be one of of the first people outside of Google to take advantage of picture-in-picture, notification dots and the like. No big surprise, Google handsets will be the first non-beta phones to get the update. The Pixel, Nexus 5X and 6P are at the top of the list, alongside Pixel C tablet and ASUS’s Nexus Player set-top box, which will be receiving the upgrade i

How ad-free subscriptions could solve Facebook

At the core of Facebook’s “well-being” problem is that its business is directly coupled with total time spent on its apps. The more hours you pass on the social network, the more ads you see and click, the more money it earns. That puts its plan to make using Facebook healthier at odds with its finances, restricting how far it’s willing to go to protect us from the harms of over use. The advertising-supported model comes with some big benefits, though. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has repeatedly said that “We will always keep Facebook a free service for everyone.” Ads lets Facebook remain free for those who don’t want to pay, and more importantly, for those around the world who couldn’t afford to. Ads pay for Facebook to keep the lights on, research and develop new technologies, and profit handsomely in a way that attracts top talent and further investment. More affluent users with more buying power in markets like the US, UK, and Canada command higher ad prices, effectively

Engineering against all odds, or how NYC’s subway will get wireless in the tunnels

Never ask a wireless engineer working on the NYC subway system “What can go wrong?” Flooding, ice, brake dust, and power outages relentlessly attack the network components. Rats — many, many rats — can eat power and fiber optic cables and bring down the whole system. Humans are no different, as their curiosity or malice strikes a blow against wireless hardware (literally and metaphorically). Serverless software deployment to the cloud, this is not. New York City officially got wireless service in every underground subway station a little more than a year ago, and I was curious what work went into the buildout of this system as well as how it will expand in the future. That curiosity is part of a series of articles I’ve written on an observed pattern known as cost disease, the massively inflating costs of basic human services like health care, housing, infrastructure, and education. The United States spends trillions of dollars on each of these fields, massively outspending sim
