An Australian man facing life in assisted living chooses to build a suicide robot instead. (Read the complete story)

"It's very interesting that this happened given that Australia outlawed handguns years ago. "

"Don't forget about Soylent Green, where old people could commit suicide in large theaters and enjoy the ends of their lives. We'll just skip the part where they get turned into food."
(Dustin 3/23/2008 4:21:37 PM)
"Also Children of Men, where you could buy suicide kits. Hm, commercialized suicide seems to be pretty popular in the future..."

"Dudes! Check out the Quantum Suicide article on Wikipedia! If the Many World Interpretation of quantum mechanics is true, then this australian man probably proved it to himself. "

"There was this episode of sliders where you got a lottery ticket from an ATM and you could take out as much money as you wanted but for every dollar you got your name was entered into a lottery to die. So the more money you got out the higher your chances of winning/dying. And then if you won you would get something like one day of luxury and then they'd kill you.It was a form of population control."
