I live in a town of ~60k in a rural state. This is the 3rd or 4th most expensive town/city to live in in this State. My mortgage is ~$900 a month.

*I used to live in Austin, TX. There is no way you could do that there.

Sure, but this is an article about how much one company is charging for a monitor, not how they are changing/innovating it. Anyway, mods will remove it as off topic like all your other posts.

The goal of /r/tech is to provide a space dedicated to the intelligent discussion of innovations and changes to technology in our ever changing world.

This post is not that u/SUPRVLLAN

fuck, I remember having USB ports and not having to buy a seperate $100 accessory so my laptop has more than a fucking power plug in.

Blog spam. Downvote and report.

I'm considering having tiny robotic monkeys fly out of my ass. Can I post that here?

Oh good another shill account for that blogspam website.

Downvote and reddit.com/report use the spam option. Also use the subreddit report button.

I’ve been interested in Kratom for awhile now. I’d love to hear your experiences and any links to legit resources on it.

I’ll toke to that!

Novel yarns made with carbon nanotubes can generate electricity from mechanical energy better than any other material to date, a new study finds.

The high-tech yarns, known as twistrons, can be sewn into clothes to produce electricity from human motion or deployed in the ocean to harvest energy from waves, researchers say.

Electromagnetic generators, which essentially function as electric motors run in reverse, have long been used to convert mechanical energy from wind and water to electricity. Although these perform well on large scales, they perform much less well on smaller scales. Therefore, researchers have investigated a wide variety of materials to harvest mechanical energy—for instance, using body motions to power wearable electronics.

Scientists first reported the invention of twistrons about five years ago. They created these materials by spinning carbon nanotubes into high-strength, lightweight fibers that can also incorporate electrolytes. Twisting or stretching these yarns increases their density, which in turn generates a voltage that can drive an electric current.

“Our dream in the future is to be able to use our twistrons to harvest the mechanical energy in the oceans to power cities,” says study senior author Ray Baughman, a materials scientist at the University of Texas at Dallas.
