travel Space

Virgin is making some space travels available for regular maxes like you and me. Well, actually I’ve been reading about this on Time magazine but Bodin brought it up in his new travel blog, onearthtravel. (wait a minute, isn’t this out of earth?!?)

Anyway, check it out. One day, space travel will be like airplane travel. Pay $500 to goto mars or somethin’

Virgin Galactic is the world’s first ever venture into space tourism, giving you the
ground-breaking opportunity to be one of the first ever space tourists. Virgin
Galactic will own and operate its privately built spaceships, modeled on the
remarkable, history-making SpaceShipOne.

AirScooter II Ultralight Helicopter for 50Gs!

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Entertainment, Gadgets, Travel, Video by max on the November 25th, 2006 at 8:32 am

You gotta check out the supposedly $50,000 personal helicopter. It is now becoming more and
more practically for people to actually own a personal helicopter. The only thing is, it doesn’t look
like it’s too sturdy for any kind of bad wheather. Well, looks are not everything, maybe it will
perform under pressure.  Hackedgadgets have some more cool pictures…

The AirScooter uses a dual coaxial rotor system that eliminates the need for complicated swash plates and greatly simplifies the aircraft’s controls (unlike a traditional helicopter, the AirScooter II uses motorcycle-style handlebars). The design also eliminates foot controls and the tail rotor. The company reports a maximum speed of 55 knots (approximately 60 mph, in keeping with ultralight regulations) and a 2-hour range from the 5 gallon tank. Power is provided by a 65 HP AeroTwin 4-stroke engine.

For those who like the concept of a coaxial rotorcraft but don’t have $50G to burn, the company also makes the AirScoot R/C coaxial rotor hobby model. The complete radio controlled package with 10 cell battery pack sells for $695.

DIY HOWTO - Turn a standard Xbox 360 video cable into a VGA cable!

Posted in Circuits, Consumer, Cool, DoItYourself!, Entertainment, Gadgets, Games, Graphics, Hack by max on the November 17th, 2006 at 12:25 am

Here’s a cool DIY for ya if you have an XBOX 360 via engadget

Recent Xbox 360 updates have allowed the system to spit out resolutions up to 1080p, and with the new HD DVD add-on drive there’s more reason than ever to use a high quality VGA signal instead of the more standard 3-cable component. However there’s a bit of a catch — VGA cables for the 360 cost about $40. According to my calculations, that’s about 2 pizzas and a case of beer less to game with. WE don’t know about you, but we find that a pretty scary proposition — yours buddies that swing over for game night probably do too.
