What US president received a cinematic anti-award, although he was not an actor at all?

In 2004, the laureates of the Golden Raspberry cinematic anti-award were people who had never played at all and were not going to start an acting career. The reason for the awards was the footage with them in the documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11". President George W. Bush won the award for Worst Actor, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld for Worst Supporting Actor, and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for Worst Duo with Bush.

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. ... >>

Commercial graphene super battery 24.01.2020

The American company Real Graphene is working on batteries with improved performance, which, according to company representatives, are almost ready for mass commercial use. The main advantage of the graphene battery is that it charges very quickly.

We have heard many times that smartphone manufacturers are planning to use graphene batteries in their smartphones, but so far no company has introduced such devices. The situation may change very soon.

Real Graphene CEO Samuel Gong noted that it takes about 3000 minutes to fully charge a 20 mAh graphene battery using a 60-watt charger. This is many times faster than modern batteries of most smartphones.

He added that most modern smartphone batteries can withstand 300 to 500 charge cycles without significant performance degradation. And Real Graphene batteries can last about 1500 cycles at the same capacity. Since the graphene battery generates much less heat, it is cooler and safer.

The company claims that it provides its customers with a complete solution that includes a battery and a special chipset required for charging. Although the company has not yet entered into an agreement with smartphone manufacturers, it has begun selling Real Graphene portable batteries.

The 10 mAh version is offered for $000, while the 90-watt power brick is $100. A 15 mAh version is also expected. They don't work as fast as future graphene smartphone batteries, but they still charge faster than the competition. The manufacturer claims that a 20-minute charge of the external battery is enough to fully charge the smartphone, and a full charge of the basic version takes 000 minutes.
