Well that mainly concerns it being called The Bitcoin Fluid Dispenser.

Fluid Dispenser? Really? That yields an obvious punchline, and the fact that he doesn't even snicker a little when mentioning it throught the video lets me think he really is a genuine Aspie.
Geez, lets call it Gas Dispenser, or maybe Fuel Dispenser.

I'm totally with you. It's not the most compelling branding for a new product. I'm sure they'll come up with something better if it gets to market. I bet the inventor of the "artificial felt-covered warming device" never considered calling it a "Snuggie" until later.

I actually though for a moment that it was dispensing some kind of "Bitcoin Fluid" and I was like,

"Oh man...just when I thought I understood this crazy thing...there's a FLUID?!?"

This might be the most autistic thing posted on bitcointalk to date.

I laughed hard at this comment. It does seem that bitcoins attract quite a bit of the "intellectual" crowd. I'm a hardware hacker myself and I get inspiration from things like this. Well done Mr. Schroder.

This is badass. I'm in NYC so I don't drive very often, but I can't wait for the day that gas stations around the country accept BTC. Those life on bitcoin people seem to need you!

Andy Schroder developed a bitcoin controlled Fluid Dispenser (Think "gas pump where you self-serve pay by bitcoin").

This 20 minute video is cool.
Unfortunately he's banished to the newbie area, so no one is seeing it on this forum. His post is here:

And here's what Andy says:

I've developed a mobile, automated fluid dispenser that accepts bitcoin as the payment mechanism. You can watch a video and see some pictures about the device at the following web address:

You guys have to see this! Great work!
