USB flash drives shouldn’t always be cute and cuddly… without the dark, there would be no light, and vice-versa… this evil 2GB flash drive includes an oh-so-evil price tag of forty bucks. A less evil flash drive would give you 16GB for that price. This one must be really greedy, keeping all the excess storage for itself.
Below, you can see the evil robot in action, scaring away the smaller, less evil flash drives:
I’m pretty sure he plans to give them all a colon cleansing that they’ll never forget. Because they probably won’t remember it in the first place, being dead and all that.
Everyone knows that the bad guys never win in the end… and it’s customary among my people to display a dead, bloody USB flash drive whenever possible. It’s customary. Prepare yourself to witness the most epic photoshopping skills of our generation!
It kind of looks like he lost a fight with a green squid, but I thought that the motherboard-guts were a nice touch.
It should come as no surprise to anybody that the world’s first sex robot is a woman. I mean, everybody knows that we’re obsessed with sex. Now, imagine a guy who needs to lose a little weight… do you think he’d rather shell out a few grand on top of the line ellipticals , or a new sexbot? Also, this is one workout that you won’t get burned out on. On the gross side, you’re going to have to clean it.
Ewww. I hear that next year, this same company is coming out with a version for women- it doesn’t have a penis, but it does the dishes and takes out the trash. I kid, I kid… actually, it does household chores for the first year or so, then at some point it stops doing housework and it just sits around the house watching football and drinking beer.
get more details, including a supposedly slightly NSFW interview here.
This robotic behemoth stands 59 feet tall. I guess it’s supposed to be life sized, but I would like it better if it was an even sixty feet tall. I wonder if there’s some sort of building code behind the height?
Ever wonder how technology will change surfing? No? Me neither. And now I don’t have to, as I’ve seen the future of surfing, and it looks like it could become a very expensive video game. I mean, look at that place- this guy can’t even afford area rugs ! Ah, the lengths guys will go to for a bit of video game action.
Speaking of video games, I’ve been addicted to the most recent Banjo-Kazooie video game on the 360. I begrudginly admit that this game is loads and loads of fun. Of course, you have to like driving a little to enjoy this game. The real appeal is creating new machines out of a bunch of parts- it kinda reminds me of playing with LEGOs.
Nanotube muscles are here! This could mean great advances in robotics, and thus, the end of civilization as we know it- because the robots are sure to try and take over the world now that they can get buffed like the Terminator! Something tells me my watergun just became useless in the war against the machines.
With a super low density of 1.5 mg/cm3, almost as light as air, a gram of this material can cover over 30 m2! The material outperforms the human muscle by 700 percent and other carbon nanotubes materials by 10 folds : it can elongate by 220 percent at a rate of 37,000 percent per second. Alongside its astonishing vertical elasticity, it presents a superior horizontal hardness, so this “unprecedented degree of anisotropy is akin to having diamond-like behavior in one direction and rubber-like behavior in the others”.
The material support a broader temperature range than biological materials (25 to 1200 degrees Celsius) but it generates a lower power: 30J/kg against 40J/kg for real muscles.
Yeah, whatever the quote said. I just wonder if this will lead to a slew of new inventions…. self-powered bicycles? Silent vacuums? Badass Prosthetics? The possibilities are only slightly limited!
Now here’s a technological breakthrough that I can get excited about. Not only is this a remote controlled lawnmower (with tank treads!), but it doubles as a snow plow for those of you who get that kind of weather. I’d like to know if I could use it as a mini bulldozer. Either way, this R/C lawn care unit promises awesome convenience… and it might even make mowing the lawn fun! The not-so-fun part of this lawnmower is the price. For the $12,000 price, you could probably hire someone to do your chores for the rest of your life. Or you could buy a small car…. or many used cars. You know what I would do with $12k? Cup noodles, baby! Oh yeah- livin’ large.
I'm crazy about technology... literally! Here at Pixel-Shack, you'll read about hot tech trends, zany gadgets, sweet rides and the occasional video game related tidbit.
