Terminator in real life 6p3w1c
Generally, science fiction films are based on situations that man envisions in real life, but in the following news the opposite happened: it is an experiment based on the film Terminator 2. In the movie, we have the robot T-1000, capable of shaping its body to traverse certain locations, and that's what Chinese and American scientists have come up with. Despite being inspired by sea cucumbers to build the robot, Internet s did not leave the pop reference aside.
This robot has the appearance of a Lego figure. It is made from gallium, boron and microscopic pieces of magnetic neodymium. Gallium it is a metal that is more easily melted, being the key part of the phenomenon. In one of the tests, the scientists used magnets to control the robot and placed a kind of grid in front of it. Upon reaching the obstacle, the robot turned into a puddle of metal, ed through the cracks in the grid and materialized again in its original shape.
Giving robots the ability to switch between liquid and solid states gives them more functionality. Now we're leveraging that material system in more practical ways to solve some very specific medical and engineering problems.

Well, it didn't turn out exactly as before, as some of the metal got stuck in the bars, but the experiment proved to be a success. To put it into practice, the robot is heated by magnetic induction melting to 30,6 degrees Celsius, then magnets move the molten pool to the other side of the grid. 80 minutes after crossing, with the magnetic field turned off and exposed to a temperature below 30 degrees, the robot resumes its shape.
PC on Nintendo Switch 2jg3p
Released in 2017, the console Nintendo Switch It guarantees fun on various occasions due to its flexibility. Your games can be accessed on a TV or in handheld mode. But what if I told you that you could turn it into a computer?
This is possible thanks to the application nOS new Operating System. When installed, the app adds typing functions, a drawing program, calculator, image gallery, and even an appointment list feature.
To the time, he also brings a puzzle. It is still possible to navigate between several open windows at the same time and access customization options. But since nothing is perfect, this PC emulator for Nintendo Switch still doesn't have a web browser.
Experts in the field claim that the us could become a very popular tool in the future, as it presents such a different proposal. Parents, for example, can use this resource to introduce their children to technology without exposing them to the risks of the internet. costing $39,99 On the eShop, the app is starting at $1,99 for a limited time!
fish playing pokemon 5h2t1c
If you didn't know this streamer when he started his journey in 2020, now is your chance. He is a fish that plays Pokémon. Exactly, the YouTuber Mutekimaru, also known as Maurice, has a betta fish who is playing Pokémon Violet on Twitch.
This is already quite curious, but what caught our attention was an even more unusual event. The goldfish was in his game sessions when an error ended the game. The fish's commands took him to the eShop and he made a $4 purchase – and he ended up exposing some of Maurice's credit card details.
And if that wasn't enough, the fish even ed another app, spent rewards money on a new avatar, asked PayPal for an email confirmation, and even changed the YouTuber's display name on the Nintendo Switch from Mutekimaru to ROWAWAWAWA.
It's possible that you're still wondering how a fish can play video games. The fish aquarium is divided into several blocks that assume the commands of the Joy-Cons, like the directional buttons and the A and B buttons. So a webcam is in front of the aquarium, captures the fish's movements and applies the commands in the video game.
As a single fish would not have enough energy to make all the movements, four animals are used every 12 hours, that is, while 4 are playing, 4 are resting. In 2020, in one of these aquatic sessions, a bug was found in a game that no player had discovered for 18 years. Pretty curious, don't you think?
