wishnias commented on Tandem Z Chinook R/C Helicopter Has Two Rotors for Double the Crashes, at 11:24 AM on Feb 8 Until now there have been really only 2 different models of the 'Picco-Z' (not including the two-pack laser tag version)... The first generation is the one with the full styrofoam body, and was a little flimsy and pretty unreliable, the motor's pinion and the rotor gear were mounted on independent frames which, combined with low build quality, eventually resulted in high friction losses and shortened flight times. The second generation has a thin plastic shell canopy in the front (resembling a Hughes design). more » [gizmodo]

wishnias commented on Perepiteia Perpetual-Motion Machine May Actually Do...Something, at 10:53 AM on Feb 7 @cyberace: you need to go see 'The Prestiege', Tesla actually built a cloning machine by harnessing and focusing electrical energy, and then Edison's underlings destroyed Tesla's entire mountain-top lab... You can learn a lot by believing that any fictional Hollywood production that contains characters found in a 5th grade history book is in fact a historical documentary, like how there's a treasure cave underneath some church in Philadelphia. But I digress... more » [gizmodo]

wishnias commented on Comcast Would Like to Remind You It Does Same-Day VOD, Too, at 10:06 AM on Feb 5 I just got Comcast digi + HD installed over the weekend along with my first HDTV, and so far so good... My only complaint is that there's not enough 'regular' HD channels in my region (south jersey shore), but hopefully they'll get around to rolling out some more as opposed to just shoving more crappy movies into their VOD more » [gizmodo]

wishnias commented on Shure Noise-Isolating Earphones are a Better Gift Than One Would Think, at 4:18 PM on Nov 20, 2007 @KEEBLER - I have a pair of the older E3c's from Sure, and the sound quality is actually quite good (bass tones included) if you can figure out how to use them correctly. The over-the-ear-cord deal is to make sure they are positioned correctly in your ear canal. more »
