Physics behind the Arc Reactor

It started with me ranting about how I should understand the physics of arc reactor more and then  Sera  needs some babel speak ideas for her Tony. I know this has been discussed deeply by most iron man fanatics before, but this is the simplified version for people who can’t be bothered to understand the big science-y words. I’m not saying that this is accurate because I’m not a nuclear engineer either, and I hope I can get some feedbacks from people who actually understand this. Since vibranium is not actually a real element, I’m focusing on the old arc reactor tech that runs on palladium. Let’s do a bit revision on fusion, yes? During nuclear fusion, light atoms combine to form heavier elements; in the process, a small fraction of mass is converted into lots of energy. Fusion reactions are called thermonuclear reactions because high temperatures are required to overcome the coloumbic repulsion between the nuclei being fused, i.e., “thermo” for the heat required...

'Drone It Yourself' Lets You Create a Drone from Any Object

Have you ever wished for a flying book? A flying keyboard? Or, perhaps, a flying bodyboard? Well, it's your lucky day, because thanks to "Drone It Yourself," you can turn pretty much any object into a quadrocopter. The drone kit, created by Dutch independent designer Jasper Van Loenen, is comprised of pieces that can be 3D printed, and then clamped to any object you so desire. All that's needed are the control unit and four propellers, and then you can make virtually anything airborne. news source

Why Nokia needs to end its marriage to Microsoft with a Google Edition Lumia

Last week, Pierre Ferragu, an analyst working for Bernstein Research, had some  cutting things to say  about the state of Nokia’s business, most of which concerned the firm’s finances. However, Ferragu also had something to say about Nokia’s dependance on Microsoft’s  Windows  Phone platform, and the rapidly diminishing feature phone market. He claimed that “Both could cost Nokia a lot of cash in the near term” and that it “could be too late” to turn back and fix this in a few years. His solution: Nokia should “take the pill” and make a few  Android  phones before it’s too late; low-end Android phones could come by the end of the year. "Swap out Windows Phone for Android Jelly Bean, and the re you have it: the Lumia 925 Google Edition" Ferragu saying Nokia should adopt Android or die isn’t news either. It has been discussed by analysts, shouted across rooms in fanboy arguments, and endlessly rolled out in forums and comment threads all over t...

12 Operating Systems You're Probably Never Heard Of It

In Simple Words Operating system means "A Operating system is a software program which helps system (Computer) hardware to communicate and operate with the system software". Without Operating System Computers are useless. We can call Operating system is the base for Computer. What is Open Source and Closed Source? Open source means we can get source code  ( Code written in the programming language ) for the specified program, application or a operating system. we can make changes or we can customize it. Some Open Source Operating System  or programs are Ubuntu, Linux, FreeBSD. Closed Source means In any specified program or operating system the  source code  is not shared public. or you cannot find  source code . And you can't make changes in source codes. Some Closed Source operating system or programs are Windows Operating System, Mac. >> Operating Systems You're Probably Never Heard of It In our  daily of Computing, we use Windows, A...

First Apple computer could fetch $500K at auction

NEW YORK (AP) — It's the kind of electronic junk that piles up in basements and garages — an old computer motherboard with wires sticking out. But because it was designed and sold by two college dropouts named Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, it could be worth more than half a million dollars. An Apple 1 from 1976, one of the first Apple computers ever built and forerunner of today's MacBooks, IPads and IPhones, goes on the auction block at Christie's next week. The bidding starts at $300,000, with a pre-sale estimated value of up to $500,000. "This is a piece of history that made a difference in the world, it's where the computer revolution started," said Ted Perry, a retired school psychologist who owns the old Apple and has kept it stashed away in a cardboard box at his home outside Sacramento, Calif. The 11-by-14 green piece of plastic covered with a grid of memory chips above a labyrinth of wires was one of the first 25 such computer elements,...
