Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women

Posted by Jaren as Cool Stuff, Gadzooki News, News

Captain Kirk’s Guide to Women (Star Trek) (Paperback) The Legendary Men Of Romance -- Casanova, Don Juan, James Bond, move over because only one man can teach us how get every woman we want, even if it's anywhere on the planet or the whole freaking universe. "one man can boast that his seductive powers take him boldly where no man has gone before: James T. Kirk." Captain Kirk’s status as an interstellar stud is proven by his ability to seduce any woman, in any situation, in any part of the galaxy. From high-society princesses to unbalanced Orion slave girls, from gender-switching shape-shifters to emotion-deprived androids — they all swoon, acquiesce, ...

How to print your own t-shirts

Posted by Jhay as Cool Stuff, Shirts

Everyone likes a t-shirt that stands above the rest. Not just in color, not just the fit, not just the design, not so much of who's wearing them, but it's a combination of all. The attitude of the one who wears it is just icing on the cake but the really important part is the t-shirt itself. There are lots and lots of good t-shirt designs out there, one in particular are the designs by Electrolychee as spotted by Aaron Roselo. Those tees are really a head turner and almost everyone would do almost anything to get their hands on those tees especially with the nearing start of the next school season. Unfortunately the problem stems from there, since everyone wants ...

A Marvel In Engineering

Posted by Geezer as Cool Stuff, Engineering, Gadgets

If you're a gadget geek then you're probably like me: you live for those moments when humans achieve exquisite and enormous engineering feats.

Well, it took over six years and about 642 million dollars but the channel bridge over the River Elbe (a river that partially split East and West Germany) has been completed. Basically what you have here is water route engineered to go overtop another river and connect two canals on either side. Previously, boats would have to actually enter the River Elbe to cross from one canal to the next, creating a water intersection. This channel-bridge eliminates that intersection. Now I wonder how thick the designers of this water bridge ...

BOSS DS-1 Distortion Pedal Mouse

Posted by Ade as Cool Stuff

Now one major factor I'm looking for when shopping for a mouse would be ergonomics. This is probably a no-brainer to you guys. We all don't want to end up eventually with RSI or Carpal Tunnel syndrome. Mice that are shaped in a way that will hurt in the long run tends to be shunned, for good measure. So how come I want Boss's DS-1 distortion pedal mouse so badly? I mean, just look at it. Grab a huge rectangular box (or if you have a guitar pedal lying around), and just use it like it's an actual mouse. It's a pain, isn't it? And judging from the fact that the DS-1 ...

The Robot Apocalypse is at hand (Robots are getting realistic facial expressions)

Posted by Ade as Cool Stuff

You know humanity's doomed if we get robots that are constantly pushing on the boundaries of the uncanny valley. Okay, maybe I was just exaggerating a bit, but as you can see, Geminoid F, a copy of a woman in her 20s with long dark hair, exhibits facial expressions more naturally than previous androids. However, even though she's more realistic than other robots, we all could see that she still hasn't quite overcome the uncanny valley yet and that she's still - for the lack of a better term - creepy. From IEEE.org: Ishiguro, a professor at Osaka University, is famous for creating a robot replica of himself, the Geminoid HI-1, a teleoperated ...

Entourage Edge dual screen eBook Reader

Posted by Ade as Cool Stuff

Laptop Mag have gotten their hands on an interesting eBook reader called the Entourage Edge. They find it strange though. It's the same size and form factor as a netbook, but it's actually two screens: one e-ink screen and the other a normal LCD screen. It's too big to be an eBook reader, they felt, but they do appreciate the effort to make such an unconventional product. Upon opening the Edge, the first thing we noticed is the hinge that allows for a complete 180-degree range of motion for both of the dualbook’s displays. Users can fold them back to back and use just one display at a time, lay ...

Powermat lets you charge your gadgets wirelessly

Posted by Ade as Accessories, Cool Stuff

Powermat is a "revolutionary" wireless charging system that might actually become the hottest gadget this year. You see, Powermat actually does away with the tangled mess of wires you have to deal wit everyday for your camera, iPod, iPhone, Blackberry, PSP, and others. Instead you get an oversized charging mat that you can put your devices on. Yes, putting your devices on the Powermat actually charges them. It's no over-the-air charger, but we look like we're getting there. Powermats can handle up to three devices at a time, which I find disappointing, although I don't see myself charging five devices at the same time. I believe that we can see ...

Sony Dash streams from Netflix

Posted by Ade as Cool Stuff, Gadgets

For a while, the Sony Dash is actually kind of a glorified widget machine. Kind of like an iPad, but imagine that it doesn't have the office suite function, or anything else that makes the iPad so great. The Dash Internet Viewer is a touchscreen WiFi device which can be propped up like a digital photo frame. Oh yeah, it's not portable. So you just have to prop it around your home. It runs Chumby OS, which lets the 7-inch device can run Chumby apps (there are over 1,000 free ones out there already), to which Sony will be adding its own Sony Music and Sony Pictures ...

Nokia Ovi Orion Gaming Phone Concept

Posted by Ade as Cellphones, Cool Stuff

Does anybody here remember the Nokia N-gage? Not a lot of you, I'm sure. The N-Gage didn't really make much of a splash when it first came out, which is sad, because it was way ahead of its time. Back then people scoffed at a gaming phone. I did too. The hardware available back then wasn't really good for running games, and there wasn't really a bunch of games you can actually play on the N-Gage platform. Nokia's taking another shot at the mobile gaming market with the Ovi Orion. The Ovi Orion is still conceptual as of now, and in theory, it looks like a good gaming phone. According ...
