If I hadn't known any better, I could have sworn this was a conspiration to discredit hybrid and electrical vehicles, in the benefit of petrol cars. Since the end of the last month, hybrid cars have gone down the drain, as scientists proved that they actually produce more carbon dioxide than petrol vehicles. Ins... |

A US vehicle manufacturing company to mass produce a fully electrical car? Is it too good to be true, or is the US finally starting to turn around and cut its massive contribution to the greenhouse effect? Believe it or not, General Motors - famous for producing petrol thirsty cars - has recently revealed the concept... |

While scientists face political and ethic issues in getting hybrid embryos, farm animals ignore all the fuss and go on their own. Such an example is Lisa, the geep, a crossbreed between a goat and a sheep. The lamb/kid was born following an unsuspected sexual encounter on the farm of Klaus Exsternbrink, in Schwerte, ... |

Hybrid technology strikes again! No, not in the automobile industry, this time it reached onto ocean-going submersibles. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, famous for finding the wreck of the RMS Titanic near Newfoundland back in 1985, with the help of an Argo submersible, has just invented a new robotic glide... |

Hybrid electric vehicles present us with a partial solution to alternative renewable energy production, but the problem is that they still run mostly on gasoline fuel and, while some see them as a viable technology for the future, others argue that it is just a cover to bring more money into the pockets of the car ma... |

Though the idea is not relatively new, and many prototypes have been built over the years, history suggests that an aero-auto hybrid would be a complete failure, since its construction is a compromise between the two functions, and will never fully complete one of these two without partially disabling the other.In 19... |

The hybrid hard disk drives, HHDs for short, are looking like the best solution nowadays when users are kind of fed up with the slowness of the traditional hard disk drive, HDDs for short, while also being shy from the extravagant price tags that come with the new storage devices, the solid state drives. As a middle ... |

Oh my God! I like environmentally friendly vehicles, but they tend to feature dull designs and not so appealing patterns. However, Aptera car looks great! And what's most important is that - unlike most electric concept cars - this one is actually going to see the production process in the near future. In fact, ... |

There is a raging battle for the right to store your files and information. On the one side, please welcome the traditional hard disk drive with its spinning platters and not too great access speed, quite high power consumption and huge storage capabilities. On the other hand, please boooo! the solid state drive that... |

When the solid state drives, SSDs for short, hit the market there were wild speculations about the imminent decease of the traditional long term storage solutions like hard disk drives, HDDs for short, as the new flash memory based drives offer a number of strategical advantages over the older solution. But as the in... |

With all sick people having sex with the animals, we won't be surprised to find a human-chimp hybrid one day. But this won't be a threat for the human species, as normally, hybrids between two different species, even if offering beneficial traits, are sterile. And in many cases, hybrids are not viable at al... |

What do you do when two substances just won't stick to each other, no matter how hard you try? You take a peak at Mother Nature and try to copy some of her surprising solutions. A new super glue does exactly that and learns from the masters in the field the gecko and the mussel.The Gecko is a small lizard, one ... |

Electric cars are an environmentally friendly alternative to old internal combustion engines that use fossil fuels and pollute the atmosphere. For now, they have their limitations regarding the autonomy, because electricity is very hard to store in conventional batteries and because recharge stations are still rare.... |

No, this is not about insufficient white paint. Because this is not an incompletely painted zebra. There is no artificial coloring on the animal you see. This a female zorse: her father is a zebra, while her mother is a mare, this being the classical example of how a child receives a mix of genes from both progenitor... |

...to multi GPU setups. And since no one thought about this at first, at the moment integrating power saving features inside the SLI technology seems pretty weird. And if you also add up the fact that in order to obtain the highest performance you need the maximum amount of juice, power saving features are pretty poi... |

The day when we will see the man-animal mutants from the Ninja Turtles on the streets is approaching. British ministers have allowed the creation of human-animal hybrid embryos for scientific purposes. Last year, a ban proposal made researchers fear that medical breakthroughs will be stopped.
