Davie Bowie is a pop star who you might be familiar with. He's only one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. His career has been one of debauchery and excess, great songs, and an ability to rock a surreal costume like no other.
For guys, finding a date can be tough. And things become especially crappy around Valentine’s Day when, if you’re me, you find yourself surrounded not by the joyous adulation of your partner who you’ve showered with gifts and love. But by sad, lonely guys. Drunk, sad, lonely guys.
Mostly with newborn babies you dress them in a onesie, the all-in-one bodysuit that ensures they’re kept warm and relatively dry but means you can also get access to their diaper quickly when you need to. This baby has a kind of onesie, but this onesie is the sort of onesie you expect Iron Man to dress his child in. It’s a full-on exoskeleton made from advanced high strength steel and comes complete with heads up display, enhanced running ability, and a collision warning system. Fortunately, just like a normal onesie, it does feature a butt flap so baby can dispose of his poop without making a mess. Maybe in the future this is what the babies of 2020 will be dressed like, but for now we can but wonder at it. Because in reality it’s actually showing off a whole bunch of cool smart caring technology featured on the new Hyundai range of cars. Still, awesome idea. Science, make it so!

Landline telephones, surely they’ll be obsolete pretty soon because no one but telemarketers—and possibly your gran—uses them any more. Relish broadband decided to find out just how irrelevant they are and took to the streets of London waving a £50 note around, offering it up to anyone who could dive into their mind and come back with their landline number.
Chances are, if you were a bit of a nerdy kid you got into Lego Technic. Chances are you’re probably still into it as an adult. One of the best things there has always been about Lego was to use your imagination to it’s limits as you tried to create mini replicas of you favorite cars, trucks, diggers, trains, planes, and well, pretty much anything that floated your boat as a kid, even if the end result looked nothing like the original. Things have come a long way since those days with an amazing approach to detail, workings and reconstruction of the real thing and you’ll find out in this video just how much workthat goes behind the design of a Lego Technic 42030 Volvo L350F Wheel Loader, it’s very appealing. To create the toy version of this real world piece of construction equipment the design team went to meticulously-detailed lengths. The result is a complex, remote-controlled model which replicates all the features of the actual L350F, the largest of Volvo’s wheel loaders.
Get Will Smith on the phone quick because I, Robot has just taken one step closer to becoming reality, the next gen of SSD cards has arrived and, according to this video, it can turn into a robot, travel the world at incredible speeds and charm the pants of any woman.

Introducing Victo the robot, powered by SSD 850 PRO with 3D V-NAND, the first SSD available to the consumer that uses Samsung’s 3D V-NAND technology, which stacks memory cells vertically.

So if you are looking for an ultra-fast computer and something that might start making a play for your girlfriend when you are not around then this could be what you need.
Nothing to see here, just President Barack Obama going for a casual stroll across Times Square with his entourage in tow. Well, not the actual president but a fake one—a look-alike called Bronx Obama—but that doesn’t stop the crowds from coming out en-masse. And it’s an epic undertaking by YouTube pranksters Maxman.tv as they troll New York, organise a motorcade, negociate with suspicious cops, and finally deliver the fake POTUS to the chanting patriotic crowds—and it looks like it was totally worth it. Thank God no one tried to assassinate him though.

Although banned in many countries the practice of FGM still goes on, with the latest research revealing that 125 million girls and women across the globe are suffering the consequences of it. Charity Plan UK want the practice to be completely eradicated and need the world to act as one to help achieve this. “FGM is a human rights violation facing millions of girls and young women across the world,” says Plan UK CEO, Tanya Barron. “We believe FGM is a global problem that requires a coordinated global solution. Because the beliefs and traditions that are used to justify FGM cross borders, we won’t end FGM in the UK without ending it abroad.” Because, you see, it’s not just something that happens to other people in other countries, it’s something that’s happening right now under our noses in the UK and the USA. Earlier in the year UK newspaper The Guardian ran a campaign to raise awareness about the issue, managing a successful petition that saw the UK government agree to teach the risks of FGM in schools across the country.
