Typically wind turbines are like giant fans that spin in the wind to create electrical energy. This new style of wind turbine, the Vortex Bladeless, is just a vertical pole that captures energy from what is known as vorticity. Huh? Apparently that is the aerodynamic effect that causes spinning vortices…
The robots are coming. Some think they are coming to take our jobs. They are right. The Nobot, however, is designed to be controlled by a human rather than its own software brain. Think of it as a robot that you control for doing the work you don’t want to…
I love taking the beautiful old-school styling and wrapping it around modern technology and performance. That is pretty much what Equus Automotive has done with their Bass 770. This beauty channels the 1960-1970 muscle car era and manages to look like a Fastback Mustang, a Dodge Challenger, and a Chevrolet…
The Ghe-O Rescue comes to us from Romania and is bigger than it looks. Heck, at first glance it looks like a modified Hummer H1. It isn’t. This monster truck is over 17-feet long and weighs 6400-pounds. It can carry 11-passengers, it can float with additional tire air bags, has optional…

You have $25K burning a hole in your pocket and already have a new car or truck? Time to buy a Wavekat P70. It drives like a car with a standard steering wheel and an accelerator pedal. Able to perform 90º turns while continuing at high speed, the catamaran style…
Remember the Dolphin Submarine by Seabreacher? Well they have been hard at work creating new designs from orcas, sharks, NASA jets, and my new favorite the Sailfish. Pictures are fine and all, but you gotta watch the video to really get how awesome this thing is. Start a collection for…
Sadly privacy is becoming an elusive unicorn. Some things we can avoid, others we cannot. That doesn’t mean we can’t make small changes that make it a bit tougher for everyone to know everything about us. For example does your Android phone really need where you are at all times?…
The Balisong (butterfly) knife is illegal in most places which is a bummer. That doesn’t mean you have to give up on the fun Balisong action. Time for the next best thing, a Balisong bottle opener by BBbarfly.com. I recently got my hands on a matching pair (black and white) with a…
