Taxi drones, or first passenger-taking drones will debut in Dubai
EHang 184, for that is its name, is a taxi-drone. Chinese-made vehicle has first been presented during last year’s CES in Last Vegas. Now, a number of them has been commissioned by Burj al-Arab, one of the most luxurious hotels in Dubai, as a personnal transport for its guests. Drone trips will not be a family thing, unfortunately, as drone can carry only 100 kilograms of weight. It will definitely be faster than dragging on foot or by car, like the rest of us peons – drone will be flying with a speed of 100 km/h (its max speed is 160 km/h, but it was deemed too dangerous). ...
How to safely buy an used phone
Smartphones are not cheap. Depending on the model you desire, you might have to spend hundreds of dollars (even thousands, if you are particulary picky). With such high prices, it is no wonder that sometimes we find ourselves searching for a more cost-efficient way of obtaining one. One of them (pretty much the only one if you do not want to mug people) is to buy an used mobile device – you’ll always save a couple (dozen/tens/hundred) bucks, right? Of course, but remember that homo homini lupus est, so there is a chance you will get, wittingly or not, ripped off when you buy ...
New features coming to Pokemon Go – PvP and pokemon trade
(Am I the only one who thinks that ”pokemon trade” sounds kind of like ”slave trade”?) John Hanke, chief of Niantic, creators of the game, stated in an interview that Pokemon Go will receive a large update that will add two new features to the game, namely Player vs. Player combat and pokemon trade. Hnanke stated that Niantic wanted to implement those options into the game on the get go, but ”server problems” made it impossible. Right… because game creators want their games to be released 100% done and with no need for updates that keep the fanbase ...
Trololol… dad makes fun of his daughter with a bit of smartphone programming
Gary Simons, a (presumably) loving dad enjoys playing a certain game of pranking with his daughter. The duo takes turns pranking one another, and it was dad’s turn to get back at her. Mr. Simmons got creative and decided to fiddle around the girl’s phone. He created an app that made her phone seem to be ”possessed” – upon launching her favourite game, the cute dog on the game’s title screen turned into a daemon, device’s screen changed as to look like the glass was broken and – a real cherry on top of the deed – the phone started to emit ...
The most durable battery in the world is in the works
One Mike Zimmerman, a professor at the Tufts University (Massachussets, US), has invented a ”zombie-battery” that will not only never explode but will keep working even when severely damaged. That is a news worth noting, especially now that the classic lithium-ion batteries have proven to be quite unreliable (coughSamsungcough). If you want to learn more, check out this video. If you’d rather read than watch, then let me tell you that Mr. Zimmerman was able to make his battery safe by replacing the flammable liquid electrolyte inside the accumulator a plastic polymer that ...
AirSelfie, a minidrone that will take pictures of yourself
I don’t get the selfie craze. Where is the fun in taking pictures of yourself? You can see yourself every day, just look in the mirror. I would understand taking pictures of friends or relatives you do not see every day, but yourself? Well, I probably will not understand the almost assured success of AirSelfie. Made by AirSelfie Camera, AirSelfie is basically a miniature drone with a 5mpx camera implemented, controllable via a smartphone application. Time to take pictures of myself from new angles, yay! Drone will hit the market on May 2017 and will cost just a humble 262 bucks. ...
Natural Cycles, new fertility app is ”as effective as a pill”
Mirror.co.uk has written an article that boasts the effectiveness of the newest contraception in form of Natural Cycles, a smartphone app. Much of what is written there seems like advertisement hogwash, so I will try to present you with simplified, more coherent version of this news. Long story short, Natural Cycles is a smartphone app that allows women to follow their fertility cycle, effectively informing them when do they have the highest/lowest chance to conceive a child. The app has reportedly scored a 0.5 effectivity rate, meaning that only five out of thousand women using this app ...
