The first road-legal solar-powered race car in the Southern Hemisphere is ready for burnout
With the goal of having their solar-powered race car on the streets of Sydney by July this year, a student team from Australia's University of New South Wales is hard at work.
Sunswift eVe, as the car is called, will have to be completely redesigned to comply with the Australian Design Rules' official car reliability and safety standards.
To make it the first road-legal solar car in the Southern Hemisphere, the team of volunteers are taking a second look at everything from the suspension to the windscreen and headlights.
When Mashable last wrote about eVe, the vehicle had just smashed international speed records. In 2014, overseen by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile — the governing body for motor sports — the team broke the world record for the fastest electric car over 500km on a single charge.
"The aim of the record was to prove that electric cars can travel very long distances at high speeds," Rob Ireland, the team's business manager, told Mashable Australia at the CeBIT technology conference in Sydney on Wednesday, but now the team needs to build a solar car the average person could drive.
"We've proven the car can do all these cool things, but can it be commercial? Can anybody drive this car everyday to work? That's the question," he said.
Cost is one of the team's main challenges. As it stands, the prototype vehicle is quite expensive at about A$500,000 in value. If you were to mass produce the car, the cost would definitely drop, Ireland said.
The team estimates it will take almost A$100,000 to make the car road legal. While they have financial support from the university and sponsors, they have also completed a successful crowd funding campaign on Pozible, raising over A$36,000.

I expect that by July, Battlefield hardline will be on origin on the house games
Hopefully dogecoin value will be at least twice the price from what it is today.
Exploratory horror game Kholat reveals the truth about Dyatlov Pass Incident's mystery
Thanks to the KHOLAT GAME, the mistery is finally revealed: The real cause for the death of the nine Russian skiers is the testing of secret soviet body transform technology. They tried to transform the skiers into bodies of chinese generals, who should solve the Sino-Soviet border conflict. This transformation caused the orange color of the skin. Also and the lack of clothes. The internal injuries were caused by the acceleration of the transformation process. Then the test failed, but the skiers were in half with the chinese generals personality. Their brains gone crazy and they started to running and screaming uncontrollable, untill they died from the injuries. What is to be transformed in other person and body ... maybe we'll never know ... or maybe there are other succesful tests of this secret technology.

Kholat, the exploration-based horror game about missing mountaineers, will be released worldwide on 9th June for PC and Mac via Steam.
Kholat does have some baggage, however, as it's based on a real event. Known as the Dyatlov Pass Incident, a group of student mountaineers were found dead under mysterious circumstances in the late 1950s. The bodies were found half-dressed hundreds of meters from one another around the campsite, and it appeared that their tents had been cut open from the inside. Some say they were running from an avalanche, others claim they saw glowing orange orbs in the area that night, and it's said that one of the hiker's pants contained radioactive traces. This has led to beliefs that there were some spooky science experiments happening in those woods.
"Kholat is a game that doesn't follow mainstream game design rules but creates its own, which are based on players intelligence and imagination," developer IMGN.PRO said of its experimental horror game.

Google reveal the Android M.next gen features
My prediction is: The sacred name will be Android the Mustard Minion and the greatest new feature will be "Your smartphone can monitoring and tracking your health and fitness while you are on the go."

Just as it's done in years past, Google will unveil the latest version of Android at its annual I/O developer conference. The company hasn't officially come out and confirmed this directly, but a session description that briefly appeared as part of the I/O schedule made specific mention of "Android M." (The session in question has now been removed from Google's I/O website.) When it was announced in 2014, Android 5.0 was first known as "Android L" before Google revealed its final "Lollipop" name months later. And while that version has so far made it to just 10 percent of all Android devices, Google isn't slowing down any in pushing the operating system forward.
Sadly the I/O session descriptions don't offer too many details on what to expect; the "Android at Work" session only says Android M "brings power of Android to all kinds of workplaces." Google has already started putting Android everywhere it can; it's on phones, tablets, in cars, powering TVs, and even running on Chrome OS. Now it sounds like there'll be a greater focus on making Android a force in the enterprise — and Google obviously needs developers to play a role in that.
Improved notifications and more powerful voice controls could be coming in Android M.
