This Is the ‘World’s Smallest PC’, and You Can Buy It Now


This Is the 'World's Smallest PC', and You Can Buy It Now

This Is the ‘World’s Smallest PC’, and You Can Buy It Now

Late last year, we showed you a sneak preview of the FXI Cotton Candy; a dual-core computer that's the size of a USB stick. Well, production is underway, and you can pre-order one right now.
Packed inside its tiny little frame is a 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor built by Samsung, along with an ARM Mali-400 GPU. It also packs HDMI-out, WiFi and a Micro USB port— and comes with Android or Ubuntu pre-loaded as the OS. It also handles MPEG-4 and H.264 video formats, so you could plug it into a TV and use it as a rudimentary media PC.
It's soon set to be rivalled by the Raspberyy Pi; a British effort to produce a similar product for around $35. To use the Pi, however, you'll need to be at home with a command line.

The ‘f’ Design

The logo of Facebook site has the letter ‘f’ in lower case. The Facebook Bed too has a stupendous design, which has the shape of the lower case ‘f’. The bed design, actually, has the shape of the ‘f’ letter, which is horizontal on the ground. The design just looks simple without any complications, just as the networking site. Unlike the conventional beds, which usually have a mirror or designed shelves, this bed has a workspace, which the Facebook addicts can use to keep their Personal Computers or Laptops very comfortably on their beds.

Specialties

The designer has also designed the Facebook Bed in such a way that there is a separate space to have the keyboard of the computer. This means that the Facebook addicts can chat easily without paining hands. In addition to a keyboard space, there is a special place for the mouse too for easy navigation while browsing. The bed also sports a chair with a red colored cover, which the users can use to sit and chat or to rest their heads while using their PCs or laptops. The concept behind this design is nothing but the users can access their Facebook accounts in a comfortable way just lying on the bed, whenever they wish to do so.

The Brain



The human brain is the most complex and least understood part of the human anatomy. There may be a lot we don’t know, but here are a few interesting facts that we’ve got covered.

1. Nerve impulses to and from the brain travel as fast as 170 miles per hour. Ever
wonder how you can react so fast to things around you or why that stubbed toe hurts right away? It’s due to the superspeedy
movement of nerve impulses from your brain to the rest of your body and vice versa, bringing reactions at the speed of a high powered luxury sports car.


2. The brain operates on the same amount of power as 10watt
light bulb. The cartoon image of a light bulb over your head when a great thought occurs isn’t too far off the
mark. Your brain generates as much energy as a small light bulb even when you’re sleeping.


3. The human brain cell can hold 5 times as much information as the EncyclopediaBritannica. Or any other encyclopedia for that matter. Scientists have yet to settle on adefinitive amount, but the storage capacity of the brain in electronic terms is thought tobe between 3 or even 1,000 terabytes. The National Archives of Britain, containing over
900 years of history, only takes up 70 terabytes, making your brain’s memory power pretty darn impressive.

Conserve Energy by 10% – Cut Down the Vampire Power


Before knowing how to conserve energy and cut down the vampire power, it is necessary to know what the vampire power is. To put it simply, vampire power is nothing but the standby power utilized by various electronic devices. Almost all the electronic gadgets use a little amount of power when we turn them off. If you consider the standby power for a single device, it is very less. However, in our modern homes filled with full of electronic gadgets, we unknowingly waste a huge amount of electricity in the form of vampire power.

The Power Switch!

For many years, there was not even a single effective solution to cut down the standby power utilized by the electronic devices. Even though a few research works concentrated a lot to conserve energy in using the electronic products, killing the vampire power was a big challenge always. However, a few solutions came up for this long term problem, but were not quite effective and consumable as expected. However, now, Belkin, a California based hardware company has come up with a promising solution that takes on the battle against the standby power. The solution is in the form of a small switch like device, which the company calls The Power Switch. The switch is quite handy and compact and looks like a useful piece of electronic device for every home to conserve energy.

How It Works?

For a few skeptics, the conserve power switch is not a great deal, as they think that it will not save them power in a large scale. However, according to the makers, The Power Switch can reduce the electric power consumption of any electronic device by ten percent for sure. The makers have also explained the work model of the Power Switch, which appears to be quite simple. As earlier told, vampire power is just the power used by any electronic gadget when it is in an off state. To prevent the device to fetch power from the power lines, one should plug it to the Power Switch and The Power Switch to the power lines. The Power Switch will stop any flow of electricity to the device, thus, eventually helping to conserve energy by stopping the standby power.

Efficient Usage!

The power conservation using the Power Switch depends upon the type of the device with which we use it. For an instance, consider that we use it with our PC in our home. In this way, we can save 3 Watts regularly. For electronic gadgets like the audio systems, we can conserve energy by more than 25 watts daily, when used with the Power Switch. However, using it with devices like coffee machines will prove to be less effective, as you can cut down only one watt of vampire power regularly.

Power Saver!

Since we use more number of electronic gadgets in our homes, right from Televisions to Cell phones, it appears as if we have to use The Power Switch for every device separately, in order attain the usage as much as possible. However, the price of the Power Switch is also not too high. One can get it for less than $7 USD. If used efficiently for high vampire power consuming systems, it is sure that, The Power Switch will help you to conserve energy by 10%.

working of Google translator

Google has come up with many interesting and innovating products from its beginning till now. It has reached an iconic status and is a familiar name almost all over the world. No matter which country, region or culture, Google is the primary and most popular search engine used by people everywhere. The Google translator is one such innovation. But how does the program work and can it really offer an accurate translation?

These questions pertaining to the Google translator can be answered in a series of steps. Before knowing the ‘how,’ the ‘what’ has to be answered. Google translator is a free translation service offered by Google that can produce a translation of a particular sentence in about 57 different languages. The Google translator can also translate words and entire web pages as well. It is a very convenient tool as it makes information accessible to people who might not understand the language pertaining to the information source.

Now the ‘how’ part of the question. Google translator is able to translate by looking for patterns in the existing hundreds of millions of documents and decides which one is more suited for the situation. These hundreds of millions of documents are translations done by human beings and stored by Google. So basically the Google translator works by a process of intelligent guesses although officially this process is called a statistical machine translation.

Now herein lies the catch. Google translator can effectively translate information into various languages but the accuracy of the translation is not perfect in any way. The translation is after all done by a machine which looks at a translation in different ways than a real human would. Human beings are able to learn a new language by navigating and understanding the rules that govern it. But the method used by the Google translator is a different one.

Therefore in the end, Google translator can produce the gist of the translation you need but cannot be used as a tool for complex translation problems. Taking a real language class would be far more productive. But you might never know perhaps in a few years Google translator and other translation programs would be enough to comfortably tour a foreign country without knowing the language.
