What is it with bunkers being all the rage on this site recently? I mean I talked about how I was gonna power mine, and how I was gonna cool mine. I didn’t discuss where I was gonna build mine, how I was gonna build it, and where I got inspiration for it from.
For security [...]
Right now, 11:11:11 pm, on the 11th day of the 11th month -3 years from the advent of the new world order is independence day. Now, the true time is 11:11:11 am, but you can’t have fireworks in the am, (unless they are nuclear fireworks, and oh man that would be good).
Embrace it, for it [...]
This blog is far from political, and (I intend to keep it that way), and truthfully, I don’t listen to the media (and I consider this blog part of “the media”), BS about this being the most important election in the history of the country, or the closest, or the most controversial. I don’t care, [...]
Just what we need, more excuses for robotic entities in our own homes. Maybe if people were less lazy, we would be less likely to cause our own destruction. Not likely, humanity and lazyness usually go hand in hand.
Besides the fact that it’s a concept for a robotic planter that moves towards light, it’s a [...]
Short of being lucky, magic, or in a police car, there is no way to guarantee you green lights all the way to work. Well that could all change in a few years if this experimental technology called Travolution by Audi goes to market.

Imagine a plane that can fly you above the clouds, and then beneath the seas. Imagine a plane that could drop bombs on your enemies, and torpedo the deepest nuclear submarines. Imagine the future.
DARPA is working on plans for just such a plane. However, it will probably be some middle ground in the above examples [...]

My bunker is going to be awesome, and fortified, and wounderful. For security purposes, I cannot list any of the required features it will have, except for power, it needs alot of it. [...]
Extinct, my ASS! from The Original Joe Fisher on Vimeo.
At first that seems like an awesome video of a new type of Museum exhibit, but upon further thought on it, you would realize that it is the last mistake of man. To little kids, and the ignorant that is a fun, interesting thing, to the [...]
Today is D-Day, Judgment day, the beginning of the end of the world if you want. The Large Hadron Collider is switched on. Should be we afraid. No. Unless of course it opens a portal to one of those other dimensions. But it wont, so don’t worry.
To celebrate this day, two of my favorite sites [...]
No, not the internet, a completely different series of tubes, real tubes underground to transport real goods.
Low-tech Magazine has a very nice article on the idea, its history, and some projects to implement these tubes in other countries in the coming years. The whole idea is very retro, and interesting at the same time. I [...]
