The Text Door Neighbor Game Is Back

Since the dawn of phones, man has wondered about the mysterious other just out of reach, a mirrored self who by fate is separated from the self by but one digit. Thus, when text messaging became the predominant means of communication, man stepped forth into the unknown by hitting up this mysterious person: his text door neighbor.

The Text Door Neighbor game is simple: you simply text the person who’s number is one digit off from yours and see how they react. For example, if your number is (555)-555-5555, you text (555)-555-5556 and see how they respond. The game has gone in and out of style over the past decade, and recently saw a resurgence at the beginning of August when a Twitter user discovered their text door neighbor was, let’s say, not very game. Thus started a new wave of “neighbor number” tweets on the timeline. Here are some of the best.

This low-key July ceremony to launch a manufacturing outpost marked a critical first step into Southeast Asia for one of Apple Inc.’s most important suppliers. It also encapsulates a fundamental move of electronics production, set in motion by the escalating U.S.-China trade war, that may hurt the world’s No. 2 economy while enriching Southeast Asia and beyond. “Pegatron, and many more to come, is an opportunity,” Edy Putra Irawady, head of a local agency charged with ent...

Chennai: Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) have developed a Multimodal Robotic System with good grasping, manipulation and locomotion abilities for use in industrial and field applications , the IITM said on Wednesday. In a statement issued here, IITM said the robot system called GraspMan consists of a pair of graspers which provides morphological adaptation, enabling it to conform to the geometry of the object being grasped. This allows the grasper to hold objects securely and manipulate it much like the human hand. A prototype of the grasper has been fabricated at the Robotics Laboratory, Department of Engineering Design, IIT Madras, and the experimental results confirm manipulation capabilities of the robot. The research is being led by Asokan Thondiyath, a Professor in the Robotics Laboratory in the IITM’s Department of Engineering Design, and his student and Research Scholar Nagamanikandan Govindan. “The motivation behind this resear...
