Powered-suit re-imagining of samurai in Japan’s violent Sengoku era
A new official website for the Sengoku Gyōjin Dullahan ~Kagen no Keishōsha (Dullahan: The Inheritor of the Crescent Moon) anime has opened with an updated 90-second promotional video. The anime re-imagines Japan’s violent Sengoku Jidai (Era of the Warring States) — instead of traditional samurai armor, legendary figures such as Date Masamune wear Gishin powered suits.
The anime is based on the top winning entry in northern Japan’s Sendai-Miyagi Animation Contest from the visual novel creator group Ra-sen in 2008. Various companies then collaborated on a teaser trailer that ran during…

After multiple delays, passengers on Halifax Transit will have to wait a little longer before they can use their smart phones to pay for trips on buses and ferries.
Coun. Waye Mason asked for an update on the electronic fare system during a meeting of the city’s transportation standing committee Thursday.
London, UK-based company Masabi is designing the system, and was awarded the contract in July 2022. At the time, staff said it could be in place within months. That date then shifted to this summer.
Dave Reage, executive director of Halifax Transit, said he didn’t have a new delivery…
India restored electronic visa services for Canadian nationals, an Indian foreign ministry official said Wednesday, two months after Canada alleged the South Asian nation was involved in the assassination of a Sikh separatist in Canada.
The electronic visa was back in order on Wednesday, an official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity as he was not authorized to speak to reporters. Sources also confirmed the move to CBC News.
The move could ease tensions between the two countries that swapped accusations and expelled each other’s diplomats with India introducing a visa ban on Canadian nationals.
A diplomatic spat…
Electrons move through a conducting material like commuters at the heights of Manhattan rush hour. The charged particles may jostle and bump against each other, but for the most part they’re unconcerned with other electrons as they hurtle forward, each with their own energy.
But when a material’s electrons are trapped together, they can settle into the exact same energy state and start to behave as one. This collective, zombie-like state is what’s known in physics as an electronic “flat band,” and scientists predict that when electrons are in this state they can start to feel the quantum effects of…
The government is not ruling out using electronic tagging to control migrants who come to the UK illegally.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman told Sky News she is willing to use a “range of options” in dealing with migrants who cross the Channel in small boats.
It comes after a report in The Times said the Home Office is considering fitting asylum seekers arriving in the UK via unauthorized means with electronic tags.
The paper says officials are looking at it as a way to stop the absconding of migrants who cannot be housed in detention centers because they are full…
Many of the countries that have sanctioned Russia over the war in Ukraine need to take urgent action to disrupt the supply of technology for its electronic warfare campaign, according to a new report.
The dossier compiled by Ukraine and circulated to the major countries which have imposed sanctions identifies key Russian firms involved in the development and production of electronic military equipment. It says the UK and other countries have not yet sanctioned some of the firms involved.
It identifies what it claims is technology made by British firms in some of the advanced electronic equipment involved in the…
NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — The US Air Force has received its first EC-37B Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft from contractors BAE Systems and L3Harris Technolgies, industry officials announced Tuesday.
BAE Systems said in a release that the Air Force will next begin combined developmental and operational testing for this Compass Call, the first of 10 aircraft planned for the Air Force.
The new EC-37B fleet will replace Air Combat Command’s decades-old EC-130 aircraft, which service is now retiring. BAE builds the electronic attack components of the new Compass Call in Hudson, New Hampshire, and L3Harris integrates that mission-specific hardware into…
