Watch: Antarctica Like You’ve Never Seen It Before

If there’s still a debate about technology versus spirituality, it must take a seat in the face of this spectacular beauty shot with GoPro HERO3+ Black Edition and hoisted dozens of meters above the ocean by a DJI Phantom 2.

Swede Kalle Ljung created this short film during a 20-day trip to the icy continent that makes up the Earth’s southern polar cap, from December 2014 to January 2015.

Look Out Google Translate! Linqapp Is Making Some Waves

I don’t know about you, but whenever I use Google Translate for an entire sentence, I never expect the translation to go smooth. It’s not just me. The more distant the two languages (etymologically speaking), the harder it is for Google’s hamsters to pedal. Enter Linqapp, now available not just on Android but iOS too.

Why Tesla Must Get Back To Edison

Immediately after Tesla released Tesla Powerwall, the Internet was flooded with lots of articles discussing the real pricing of the new Tesla product. You do not have to be a genius to notice that Powerwall is not economically efficient. Even the economics behind lead acid batteries based systems is debatable, although these batteries cost three times less than the Li-Ion batteries used by Tesla.
