Posted September 7, 2014 Graphene is one of those material science breakthroughs that’s so frequently described as a harbinger of technological revolution, it almost feels hackneyed. Almost, until an update like this rolls around: Scientists at Cambridge today demonstrated the first graphene-based flexible display. “This is a significant step forward to enable fully wearable and flexible devices,” said the Director of the Cambridge Graphene Centre, Professor Andrea Ferrari, in a statement made today. Ferrari was describing the impact of the prototype device, which is compared to a screen of your average e-reader — with the glass screen replaced with a plastic one. The biggest difference, of course, is what’s behind that plastic: Instead of the metal electrodes you’d find on an e-reader, there are graphene electrodes: According to the CGC, the graphene display clocks in at a perfectly respectable 150 pixels per inch, and the center says it’s working on full-colour versions. It’s the first flexible graphene display we’ve seen demonstrated, and in the demo video, we see the thin plane of plastic being bent and then cycling through the pages of a 1950s-style “recipe book” explaining how to make a graphene display. Though still very rough, it’s interesting to see how the much-hyped technology actually looks in practice. Maybe those folding phones aren’t quite as far away as we assumed.

Posted September 7, 2014 Even with 46KB/s down I beat you to it. Lol, today my internet is being good to me by bringing 1.9Mb/s down and a ping of 30-46..

Posted September 7, 2014 What happened to all that news about the wonders of weed. -I kid, it is only said to be useful for power supply's and the like- And so GabeN has told us to march forthith unto the Land of Holy welding our swords of mice, shields of keyboards, and helmets of Oculus Rifts where we shall reclaim it-which is rightfully ours-from the PUNY Console Peasants from whom armed only with mere controllers we shall decimate in all forms of battle and we shall dominate even in their most ridiculous tradition and infatuation of CoD. Yes, my brothers- sisters and trans sexuals too- we shall destroy the inferior of races with our might and majesty. And if any Peasants wish to join us they must speak now or forever perish. -Ancient Speech from a Leader of Old, Book of Murratri section 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 7, 2014 Hemp growers are about to make a lot of money. Indeed they are, but they were already going to do that anyways. Supposedly Washington and Colorado are struggling to keep up with demand as it is. Also, this is neat. Ketchup is better than mustard. GUI is better than Command Line Interface. Dubs are better than subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
