Microsoft’s New Generation Xbox event is live tomorrow, get your liveblog right here!

We’re gathering just outside of Microsoft’s HQ for what is looking like it’ll be a day full of excitement, culminating in the “special unveiling” of a “New Generation.” It’ll be the next Xbox for sure, replacing the venerable Xbox 360 that has been giving us gaming joy (and occasionally frustration) since way back in 2005. Will this new unit be powerful enough to stay relevant for that long, too? Or, will this be the generation when Sony takes back the lead? Join us at the link below at 1:00pm ET tomorrow!

Calm before the swarm: domestic drones are here, but the law’s still catching up

Drone-lede_large

It was a muggy springtime morning in South Texas virtually one year ago when Gene Robinson got to the swampy waters near Sam Houston Lake Estates. All that week the location had been a hive of activity, as authorities browsed along the banks, diving underwater with scuba gear, and flying overhead in helicopters. 150 search-and-rescue workers aided by 40 pet dogs had actually criss-crossed the thick forest around the lake on foot, ATVs, and horseback. Texas Rangers stood guard with rifles, securing search celebrations from alligators, feral hogs, and huge predatory cats.

The missing out on boy was Devon Davis, a two-year-old who had relocated with his household to the location just a couple of weeks prior. While his mother was napping, Devon had wandered out of the house and …

Mutants Here We Come!: Extinct Frog That Gave Birth Out Of Its Mouth Being Brought Back To Life

extinct-mouth-brooding-frog.jpg

Gastric-brooding frogs went extinct in Australia in the mid 1980′s, probably thanks to humanity (shocking, I know). They’re called gastric-brooding frogs because the mothers would swallow their fertilized eggs, then incubate them in their stomachs through the hatching and tadpole stages until it was finally time to puke up all their children. I really hope you’re reading this on your lunch break by the way. And now scientists are going to BRING THEM BACK TO LIFE and have already created early stage embryos of the species.

The revival of the genome was part of the Lazarus Project that is working on a so called de-extinction program to bring the dead species of frog back to life.

So far the team of scientists was able to reactivate dead cells into living ones by unfreezing and implanting the nuclei, taken from fossilized tissues of the frog that were collected in the 1970s and preserved in a deep-freezer.

“We are watching Lazarus arise from the dead, step by exciting step. We’ve reactivated dead cells into living ones and revived the extinct frog’s genome in the process. Now we have fresh cryo-preserved cells of the extinct frog to use in future cloning experiments,” said professor Mike Archer, of the University of New South Wales, in Sydney, the leader of the Lazarus Project team

For those of you who didn’t go to vacation bible school, the Lazarus Project refers to Lazarus of Bethany, a man Jesus allegedly raised from the dead four days after his death, according to the Gospel of John. So basically scientists are for-real playing Jesus now. Me? I only play Jesus in sports that involve sprinting because he always wears sandals and can’t run that fast. Isn’t that right, Jesus? “Race you across the lake?” Good one.

Thanks to clarissa, who didn’t explain it all but that’s okay because the unexplained parts I just attributed to magic like they used to in the old days before science came along and ruined everything.

PayPal Here coming to the UK with a chip reader to match video

PayPal Right here’s UK implementation swaps out the triangular US reader for a significantly bulkier Bluetooth peripheral that takes the newer payment method. Many others aspects will recognize to anybody who’s used Right here on an Android or iOS device in an additional nation, minus the required changes in currency. PayPal is partnering with a handful of UK businesses before launching Below on a wider scale in the summer season– not quickly sufficient for some, but it might save a few Brits from scrounging through their pocketbooks simply to get some ice cream.
