U.S. military launches unmanned X-37B spacecraft. Too bad it refuses to tell us what it’s for!
Posted on April 23, 2010 | No CommentsIt's all a bit like Mass Effect. The U.S. Air Force successfully launched the X-37B unmanned spacecraft yesterday, but the question that nobody knows the answer to: what's it for? The Air Force refuses to say what the X-37B's mission on beyond something along the lines "we wanted to see if it works." OK, but do you plan on doing with it? "Sorry, classified." Neat.

Portable media players will have a mandatory volume limiter in Europe soon
Posted on September 25, 2009 | No CommentsIt's expected that the European Commission will pass legislation that will require manufacturers to include a noise limiter on portable media players. This is being done, of course, because listening to said devices at extraordinarily loud volume levels is quite dangerous; up to 10 percent of users are in danger totally destroying their hearing by keeping the players on too loud.

Soylent, I mean solar, power is people!
Posted on September 9, 2009 | No Comments
While the developed nations of the world spend huge amounts of money trying to eek out just a little more efficiency from traditional solar panels made from silicon, an industrious young lad from Nepal has figured out how to use human hair to get 9V of electricity from the sun. The fine articles are a little light (ha!) on the science, but even if there's some hyperbole in these reports you've got to admit that it's still wicked cool to use human hair to convert solar rays into electricity.

Feel free to drink your shower water, kids
Posted on August 26, 2009 | No CommentsNormally, you probably wouldn't consider drinking your own shower water after you had used it, but throw a couple of plants in there and you may well reconsider. Or, perhaps you'll react like the Drudge-ushered Daily Mail commenters and say stuff like “WHAT IS THIS GARBAGE, I EARN THE RIGHT TO WASTE WATER AND I'LL BE DAMNED IF SOME EGGHEAD SCIENTIST SAYS OTHERWISE.”
UK-based Lok8u (Get it? Locate you?) is a GPS-enabled wristwatch meant to be worn by children. The watch also features a built-in cell signal, too, which enables location information to be relayed rapidly to parents while waiting for the GPS chip to get its bearings or when there’s no line-of-sight to GPS satellites.
