    Default Awesome balancing robot...not what you might think...

    This robot can balance a dual inverted pendulum. Quite an impressive task, imo.

    Watching someone else use your computer is like watching a drunk orangutan solve a rubix cube. They have no idea what they're doing and you just wish they'd hand you the damn thing so you can do it yourself.
