Air-Conditioned Bed Is Almost Way Cheaper Than A/C [Summer]Posted by: admin in General Tech News
They say it’s thanks to a the Qosmio’s powerful processor, but I’m not sure if I buy that. And anyhow, I don’t like to waste spare cycles on something an infrared or bluetooth remote can do just the same. Plus, this sounds a bit too much like exercise. There’s a video over at [Laptop Mag] |

As soon as you think they can’t build a more intense roller coaster, someone comes along and makes one that’s crazier than anything anyone’s seen before. Today’s example: the Farenheit at Hershey Park, a coaster that drops you down a 97-degree slope. Yes, that’s beyond vertical. It hits you with 4 Gs of force, more than what NASA astronauts are subjected to. Holy crap. Hit the jump for a video of this thing in action, then feel free to falsely claim how massive a man you’re and how much you’d enjoy this voluntary abuse.
For those who have been softened by years of artificially produced 72-degree work, sleep and play, this “air-conditioned bed” is a promising tool to fight midsummer sleep sweat. A easy air pad that circulates fresh air under your body, the air-conditioned bed gets the cool air just where you need it—under your sweaty backside (a lesser man might call it “swass”). And for a measly 24 cents a day in operating costs, the $399 price tag becomes a tiny more reasonable. [J
