Canada should do away with the nickel within the next five years but avoid getting rid of cash entirely, a new report from Desjardins said Tuesday.

This side-by-side comparison video of 4K HDR Ultra HD and Blu-Ray doesn’t show the true technological difference between the two (because things get lost in translation when it ends up as a video on YouTube) but it does illustrate how there is a visual difference between the two that go beyond just more resolution. 4K TVs are often disregarded because we can’t appreciate the resolution unless the screen was much bigger but with 4K allowing for hi…

The fully-funded Kickstarter project swaps out an ordinary tire for a battery-powered one.

Without a set of wings, you would assume that a helicopter couldn’t safely land like a gliding plane can in the event of an engine failure.

I bought the Apple Watch a year ago. I stopped wearing it two months ago, and I’m not sure if I’ll ever wear it again. That’s because it doesn’t really do anything that anyone needs, and even when it does, it doesn’t always work like it’s supposed to.

Using a classic cinematography technique that Alfred Hitchcock made popular, where a lens is zoomed while the camera is simultaneously moved to keep the main subject the same size, Tim Sessler was able to capture some truly remarkable drone footage that might actually make you feel a little dizzy.
