We are reliably informed by the calendar that yet another year has begun. That can only mean one thing: the time has come to go out on a limb with a series of ill-advised predictions that are almost certainly not how the year will actually go. We have to try; it's...
I absolutely adore this hilarious keyboard that has tiny ducks instead of regular keys, and that quacks when you press each duck. The tiny ducks are made by a company called 'Duckeys,' which also makes this Guitar Hero controller and is apparently working on a cat keyboard an...
The most surprising thing about Tetrisweeper is that it took so long for someone to think of it. Once you've played this mashup of Tetris and Minesweeper, it seems virtually impossible and completely obvious. Tetrisweeper looks just like Tetris to start, but as you play, a...

Harrison Ford is indisputably a legend. Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Rick Deckard, and (sigh) Jack Trainer are all characters that are hard to imagine being played by anyone else. What is often overlooked, however, is how damned funny he is. Almost all of Harrison Ford's iconic...
I'll give the Musk/Cybertruck fanboys one thing: their devotion seems to know no limits. Enter the 24 karat gold-plated Tesla Cybertruck, which has been on display as part of a holidy shopping promotion at the Gold Souk Extension, a massive shopping center in Dubai, UAE. —...

In painting apps, color gradients are calculated within abstract color models, apparently without any particular care for how humans see or what humans expect. If you've ever felt you could see 'Photoshop colors' in the dull and stodgy hues of a digitally-colored comic book...
The Facebook group Death Stairs is dedicated to staircases likely to murder those who set foot on them. Though there is a variety of subgenres—consider ultramodernist glass stairs with no railings or risers, for example, or the DIY witch stairs of an amateur carpenter's...

'Can it run Doom?' is a clever way of reminding us that everything, from toasters to tealights, are general-purpose computers underneath the polypropylene. Though Doom in the browser is nothing new, Doom in a captcha in a browser as a test of humanity is a potentially...
Rudy Giuliani—formerly America's Mayor and lately Donald Trump's startlingly disgraced lawyer—will not be able to keep a list of witnesses hidden until a legal hearing next month that could strip him of his Florida condo. Giuliani is on the hook for a $148m defamation...

Jocelyn Wildenstein, the Swiss socialite who became famous later in life for extreme cosmetic surgery that gave her a catlike appearance, died Wednesday. She was 79 or 84 years old, depending on the source, and suffered a pulmonary embolism. 'Her most enduring project,'...
Apple launched its highly anticipated Vision Pro “spatial computing” headset last Feb. 2 amid significant hype — and hopes it could finally push virtual or mixed reality into mainstream use. But with a price tag of $3,499 and a staggered rollout to countries outside...
