The mystery of flight MH370: How can we track a smartphone anywhere on Earth, but a giant plane can go missing?
2014-03-10 14:34:05| Extremetech
Three days ago, Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 vanished from radar off the south coast of Vietnam in the South China Sea. 239 people were on board -- and at this point, it is presumed that they have all perished in some kind of disaster. For me, this is almost incomprehensible: Despite all of the awesome technology that mankind has developed, it's still possible for a Boeing 777-200 with 239 people on board to vanish. Surely, given the fact that we can track a damn smartphone anywhere on Earth down to a few meters, there's a better way of keeping track of missing aircraft?

Samsung Galaxy S5 hands on: Gimmicky, but still the best phone money can buy

On paper, it's hard to fault Samsung's new Galaxy S5, unveiled in Barcelona tonight. It has top-notch hardware, a fairly decent version of Android, and simply more features than any other smartphone out there. You can fault the plastic chassis -- but do remember that there are also plenty of people out there who prefer the plastic to metal. In practice, I'm happy to report that the Galaxy S5 really is a nice phone -- probably the best that money can currently buy (as of its April 11 release date anyway) -- but it's certainly not without its gimmicky faults. But hey, it wouldn't be a Samsung Galaxy if it didn't have a few lovable but useless gimmicks, right?

Mining and Fracking Public Lands Creates 4.5 Times More Carbon Than They Can Absorb

Wilderness Society: Public lands generate about 4.5 times more atmospheric carbon than they are currently able to absorb, according to a new report from the Center for American Progress.
