Atomik – We Find The Awesome For You. By James on May 4th, 2012 at 11:34 am Art, Film Over the course of a summer, 9 year old Caine built and ran his very own arcade out of his father’s auto parts store.
He built the games out of extra cardboard boxes and used his old toys as the prizes. Sadly, the walk-up traffic of used auto-part stores just isn’t what it used to be and it’s even worse for cardboard arcades. Despite this, Caine wasn’t deterred in the slightest. Every day they’re open, Caine can be found sitting in his office, donning his Caine’s Arcade staff shirt, sweeping and cleaning as needed. Nirvan was Caine’s very first real customer, and seeing how much work Caine had put into his cardboard, roadside arcade, Nirvan purchased a fun pass and went to town. Bringing You the Best of the Web. How to Make an ATM Spit Out Money - Technology Review - (Private Browsing) Yesterday, during a flashy presentation at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas, a computer security expert showed several ways to break into ATMs.
Barnaby Jack, who is director of research at IOActive Labs, made cash pour from a machine for minutes on end. After studying four different companies’ models, he said, “every ATM I’ve looked at, I’ve found a ‘game over’ vulnerability that allowed me to get cash from the machine.” He’s even identified an Internet-based attack that requires no physical access. The same talk was supposed to take place at last year’s Black Hat conference, but it was pulled at the last moment. In his presentation, which did not reveal the exact details of how he performed the attacks, Jack named two vendors–Triton and Tranax–and said he had been in contact with both about fixing the problems.
Jack demonstrated the attacks on two ATMs that he bought online and drove to Las Vegas from his company’s headquarters in San Jose. Jay Leno’s 3D Printer Makes Old Car Parts - NextEngine 3D scanner and Dimension 3D printer. One of the hardships of owning an old car is rebuilding rare parts when there are simply no replacements available.
My 1907 White Steamer has a feedwater heater, a part that bolts onto the cylinders. It's made of aluminum, and over the 100-plus years it's been in use, the metal has become so porous you can see steam and oil seeping through. I thought we could just weld it up. But it's badly impregnated with oil and can't be repaired. If we tried, the metal would just come apart. So, rather than have a machinist try to copy the heater and then build it, we decided to redesign the original using our NextEngine 3D scanner and Dimension 3D printer. Inside the printer, the print head goes back and forth, back and forth, putting on layer after layer of plastic to form a 3D part. Any antique car part can be reproduced with these machines--pieces of trim, elaborately etched and even scrolled door handles.
