Now the thing that freaks me out about this is that I remember feeling like "how the hell is that even possible" or "No way" or "That SOUNDS cool but itll never be reasonably priced"

Well, remember this?



I had the same feelings about those videos, and they've all come true. My apple iPOd Touch can do most of that.
And that was only like 15 years ago, can you imagine what kinda awesome toys we'll have 10 years from now?


If the robots don't take over before then....

it might matter...

Clump of dark matter may loom near solar system

I dno, it might be that I watch too much Futurama, but does anyone else think..."Hey. What if..."


Yeah, let's go pick up some spam and toilet paper. We should start stocking up.

alright when i mentioned futurama i started googling, and i came across this badass fanart

Trust me, I've thought bout it everytime I check in...

Gadgets to help you survive cheap hotel rooms

By the way, It can happen in expensive rooms too.

And btw>btw, I'm blogging a LOT today in between calls & paperwork & being sick. I think it's how I cope with stress.

What were you doing when you were 12?

This is kinda badass. Read the comments that the writer pulled to the top too, it clarifies some things.

William Yuan, a seventh-grader from Portland, OR, developed a three-dimensional solar cell that absorbs UV as well as visible light. The combination of the two might greatly improve cell efficiency. William's project earned him a $25,000 scholarship and a trip to the Library of Congress to accept the award, which is usually given out for research at the graduate level.12-year-old Revolutionizes the Solar Cell, Sep 2008

When I was 12, I think that I was reading vampire books and spending all my time on my computer.

Oh wait, that was last night too.

Love is just a chemical equation

No but apparently that's what a couple of businesses are banking on. When you're looking for your soulmate, why rely on silly things like things you have in common, similar values, or chemistry...when you can use ACTUAL chemistry and break it down into science.

Welcome to a Brave New World..er..um.. Gattaca..wait. um.. "The Future of Love". (Yeah that sounds safe.)

Discover your "soul mate" on Genepartner.com

Actual quotes from the website:

...this formula we will determine the probability for a satisfying and long-lasting romantic relationship between two people.

This probability is highest when two people are genetically compatible.

As Techcrunch reported, they're not the FIRST ones to do it, just the cheapest.

At an introductory rate of $199 for a lifetime membership...it's actually much cheaper than something like match.com or eharmony.

If i had money, I'd look at it as an investment. I mean, one day we might have these things on iPhone v. 12.2...where it'll beep when your "soul mate" is walking next to you on Market Street.

That..would actually be pretty dope. I can see it now...
[ext San Francisco 2018]
Girl's iPhone v12.2 starts beeping like crazy.
Guy's iPhone v12.0 (aw sorry..he's behind on his hybrid car payments) starts beeping like crazy.

Girl: "Wow, 85% compatible!"
Guy: "Yeah, that's only 1% less than my ex girlfriend."
Girl: "Um. Yeah I can see your recent dating history right here..you're um..seem to be statistically 'compatible' with big breasted blondes?"
Guy: "Oh, yeah, I kind of gamed the system."
Girl: "Goodbye."

Okay, I don't know why I just went off on that. Oh well, I need to sleep.

Night ya'll!

Shape Changing Skyscrapers
This looks cool, but unfortunately I could never live in one due to my vertigo.

Although I can imagine how fun a party would be in one.
