Laws, morality, religion - all this for him is nothing more than bourgeois prejudices, behind which bourgeois interests are hidden.

Artificial leather for touch emulation
15.04.2024
In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men
14.04.2024
The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive Maple seeds will double the flight time of drones
19.05.2022
The heavier the drone, the longer it can stay in the air. Against light and ultra-light drones, physics plays against which small-capacity batteries cannot cope. But nature has answers for everything, including the problem of extending the flight time of ultralight aircraft, for which it is enough to study a maple seed.
Maple seed - lionfish - can soar in the air for a long time. The seed element in the form of a wing, when rotating around the center of gravity, creates lift, allowing the wind to carry the planting material far. Scientists have repeatedly paid attention to lionfish, and in a new study, researchers from the City University of Hong Kong have indicated their portion of interest in the structure of the lionfish.
The proposed design of a lightweight drone weighing only 35 grams looks like a twin lionfish with large wings made of polyamide film on carbon fiber rails. The original decision was to place small electric motors near the ends of the wings parallel to the ground. Tiny motors spin the two-bladed structure, and due to the lift force, the drone can hover in the air and even perform controlled maneuvers.
With a 250 mAh battery, the 35-gram drone stayed in the air for 14,9 minutes. With a 650 mAh battery, the 42,8-gram drone has already hovered for 24,5 minutes. This is twice as long as in the case of classic multicopters.
