    Startup Develops First 3D Printed Battery Powered Rocket

    Just as a follow-up, the same generally holds true of electric motors. I'd imagine that's also true of batteries if you increase the size of the individual cells. Even if you just use the same cells, the worst case is that the power density remains constant.

    Startup Develops First 3D Printed Battery Powered Rocket

    In my experience, when pumps are scaled up they usually increase in efficiency rather than decrease.

    iPhone 6 Bend In Your Pocket?

    Yet another example of the post-jobs Apple trying to play catch-up with the features available in Android phones: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LG_G_Flex:rolleyes:

    Cool New High Speed Gesture Recognition

    I don't get it. How is this different from Leap Motion (https://www.leapmotion.com/)? The Leap unit provides full 3d gesture tracking with virtually zero latency (as confirmed by a massive host of 3rd party reviewers). Instead of being a massive setup of framework and cameras (like this...

    'Wearable Eyes' Make You Appear More Friendly

    Yea, then watch Facebook try to compete with them by buying a googley eye factory for $5 billion so they can glue them to the front of future Oculus Rifts.

    Journalist Wearing Google Glass Attacked By Woman

    Because, as has been reported over and over and over again, there is a almost universally accepted reality happening in San Francisco right now where wealthy Google (among other large tech companies) employees are moving into the city center, even though they work in the burbs, and driving up...

    TurboTax Maker Campaigning Against Free, Simple Tax Filing

    Yes, because there absolutely NO way a private corporation (like Intuit, TurboTax or H&R Block) could EVER make a website that has a security flaw and releases user data. Corporations just don't make those kinds of mistakes. That almost as absurd as suggesting that a huge company like Target...

    Wet-Spun Carbon Nanotube Beats Copper in Carrying Electricity

    "what makes you think it will be more expensive carbon is much more abundant than copper." We're talking about carbon nano-tubes here, not elemental carbon carbon. Copper was one of the very first metals humans learned how to manipulate for a reason. It's extremely easy to generate copper...

    The WTF Door Design of the Day

    For everyone saying it's dangerous, there's another video out there (on youtube, I believe) showing the guy putting his fingers into it. You can't see it in this video, but he designed it with padding between the panels to ensure you can't hurt yourself that way. I'm too lazy to hunt the video...

    Steam Machines Support Up To 16 Controllers

    I can connect 127 controllers per motherboard hub controller on my PC. The real question here is why did big brother Valve decide to handicap their Steam Machine to only support 7? Who are they to tell me I can't have 254 of my friends play the next great PC FPS in postage stamp sized windows...

    Hyper-Realistic CGI Is Killing Photographers

    The article seems to be focusing on product advertising images. What you guys don't seem to be taking into account is how much airbrushing already goes into the real photos before consumers see them. By the time that process is done, I doubt you have much of a chance of being able to pick...

    South Korea Victim Of 'Massive' Cyberattack

    Sounds like it's time for a certain not "best Korea" to slip, trip, and "accidentally" drop a few depth charges directly over some fiber-optic cables that happen to be crossing under international waters...

    Rocket Science Is Dangerous Business

    Things I immediately see seriously wrong with what they're doing: * The father's way too close to the rocket at arming * The son is way too close to the rocket at arming * The laptop is way too close to the rocket at arming * The daughter is way too close to the rocket at arming * None of...

    Thermal Compound Round-Up

    Also note that they state that the margin of error for these tests is 2 degrees. This means that, since many of the results are within the margin of error, most of the top contenders are, effectively, equivalent.
