How LEDs Can (Actually) Have >100% Efficiency
I am sick and tired of hearing these stories of LEDs being more than 100% efficient – that is, outputting more power than they consume. Usually, the stories are embellished, non-factual, or have a severe scientific flaw (the laws of thermodynamics have yet to actually be broken). Did they actually perform cold fusion? No, they’re [...]
Tesla’s Single Wire Power Transmission
Nikola Tesla broke much ground during his lifetime, but much of his work is still under-utilized to this very day. In the face of Anthony’s article earlier about the smart grid’s lack of solid state electronics at the power distribution level, there is a marriage of solid state switching and Tesla’s more under-appreciated work that [...]
Capitalize on Greece’s Hard Times
Unless you live under a rock, you’ve heard of Greece’s issues lately within the European economy. But, every cloud has a silver lining, and just like Oscar Shindler profited off of World War II (before his philanthropic life-saving), you too can capitalize off of a European situation.

Chances are, you’ve seen what they’re referring to by turds (source below) – but is [...]
Why make Megaman Legends 3 when you can make HDN:MKII
Keiji Inafune, “WTF!?” is about all anyone can say about Hyper Deminsion Neptunia MK II. How can the man who played a heavy role in Street Fighter, Megaman, Megaman Legends, Megaman X, Onimusha, Phoenix Wright, Dead Rising, Resident Evil AND who was Capcom’s global head of production have allowed…this. While playing the game I could’t [...]
Lollipop Chainsaw is a prime example of a bust in more ways than one
For those who who have followed Suda51 since No More Heroes you’ll know exactly what I mean when I say he is the M. Night Shyamalan of the gaming world. For those of you who don’t get the comparison from either side allow me to explain. Much like Shyamalan, Suda51′s debut was very strong and [...]
Rule 34 on Siri: Artificial Intellect
So a fellow editor, Anthony, sends me this from a friend of his: Although funny hilarious for all practical purposes, what are the implications of this about Siri (shown in commercials on TV with kids using it) and its AI?
