War isn’t always a bad thing – sometimes it’s been necessary for sweeping changes to take place. But it is, for the most part, a tragic time. Because aside from risking the lives of soldiers, there’s also the matter of taking away the lives of innocent civilians.

If Batman Can Have a Batmobile, Why Can’t Doctor Who Have a TARDIS-Mobile?

While the TARDIS seems like a pretty decent way to travel through space and time, it’s not exactly the best vehicle for getting through rush hour traffic on the expressway.

Regular umbrellas shield you from the rain falling from the sky, but they don’t do anything to protect you from water splashing from the wheels of cars speeding through puddles in front of you. It’s annoying but unfortunately, there is little you can do about it.

Withings WS-30 Wireless Scale Slims Down

I’ve known for the last couple of years that my home scale is a bit off, so I wonder if an expensive digital scale will do better.

Pip-Boy 3000 Made from Picture Frame 2012

Last year we saw a prototype for an unwearable Pip-Boy 3000, which involved using a smartphone to create a replica that was functional, or at least interactive. This hack is not as high tech, because it only uses a digital picture frame, but at least it’s wearable.
