Yeah, so we here at Bit Rebels are huge Iron Man fans. We have talked about those movies, posted articles about them and debated whether or not Batman could really kick Iron Man's butt. And no, I am not going to tell you the outcome of our debate on that one. Evidently we have a thing for technology ...

Not too long ago there was a trend that involved making every conceivable movie into a video game. Of course they were all made in different qualities, and more often than not, it was just all about getting it out there to milk the market of every last dime from the franchise. However, in many cases ...

You guys should know by now that I am a huge horror movie fanatic. I find the genre to be highly pumped with adrenaline, and I don't think there is a movie within the genre that I haven't seen. My favorite has always been Friday The 13th franchise; however, I like the middle movies better then the e ...

It's hard nowadays to spot if something is photoshopped or not. Usually it comes down to looking at the reality of the images. Is it really possibly that the images you are looking at exist? That's the first question you should ask yourself. Of course there are times when the line between reality an ...

I think most of us are quite used to music videos that have insane special effects. At least this is true if you've seen some of the later (not recent though) Michael Jackson videos. He always had the most insane special effects, and he was always on the edge when it came to technology. However, rec ...

Why is it that I always find the coolest stuff through my co-workers (in this case Diana)? It's a constant sharefest here at Bit Rebels, and we always shoot each other stuff that we think would fit our different writing personalities. Star Wars is a huge hit here on Bit Rebels, and I think we have a ...

I am starting to get a new itch, and it has everything to do with Steampunk. I get introduced to it continuously, and there is no getting around it. It's utterly awesome in every way. It has become a growing community through the years, and the things that get steampunked (why does that word make me ...

There you are typing away on your computer not thinking about the fact that one day it will be yesterday's technology. We never think of our stuff that way until we finally find or see something that puts our gadget to shame. Then we work like mad people to get it, and we just toss the old one away ...

There are a lot of different, weird, odd and crazy conventions out there for sure. There are some that I would never have thought existed until someone told me about them. Well, luckily I am not visiting too many of them since I'd rather sit here and write articles for you guys. Yes, imagine that! B ...

I used to draw quite a bit when I was younger, and somehow I managed to get good grades in art in school. Since then, I have gone from pencil to mouse. Hopefully one day I will have the opportunity to move beyond the mouse and get into more intuitive drawing on the computer. I know a lot of people w ...

Technology is an ever changing business, and it's all a matter of cutting to the cheese first to get the big bucks. A few days ago I had a lunch meeting with a gentleman who owns a technology business, and we got into specifics about the industry and some rather interesting information came to light ...

The virtual reality that we are immersing ourselves into more and more each day tends to get so captivating for us that sometimes we do not even look out the window on a sunny day anymore. It's a shame really because all that the world, the REAL world that is, has to offer is slowly coming to an end ...

We all have days when pretty much everything goes wrong. We're each dealing with it in our own way, and that's probably the best way to do it. The common thing in all this is that we all hate when we come across one of those days. However, most of us probably don't think that many people actually gi ...

Today is one of those days when I could really go for a beer. It's like a million degrees outside, and I am sitting here with 2 powerful computers around me and an insane number of displays that are all humming this room into a Finnish sauna! Yeah, that's how hot it is in here today. I've been watch ...

Ever since the first personal computer was introduced, researchers have been trying to create a lifelike speech synthesizer that can comfortably and correctly convert text on the screen into perfect speech. There have been a number of approaches, and pretty much all of them have failed miserably. Th ...
