See, the thing is, your cat doesn't actually hate you, per se. It simply prefers the more refined tastes of its imaginary lounging companion. Spread Motion Design filmed and animated this amusing short while Wolfpeople provided the score.

Here's everything you need to know about the Internet's favorite animal: cats. All the things you ever wondered about your furry friend? Right here. ASAP Science explains why they like catnip, how they can always fall on their feet, why they purr and how their eyes work. Did you know they spend 85% of the day doing nothing and that drinking, eating and mating only takes up 4% of the day. The question: what kind of catty things are they doing the other 11%? [

Few things are more fun in life than tracking shipments and then seeing how it'll eventually reach your front door. But what happens in the in between process? This video shows you what happens when you send something by mail. The drop off locations, the sorting facilities, the delivery process and everything in between. There's a lot of steps! It seems like the life of a package could be made into a Pixar movie like Finding Nemo or something.

Imagine a world where light sabers are real. Totally awesome, yeah? All fun and games, right? But not really when a baby gets his hands on a light saber. When they start waving things around, you're at their mercy. Fingers, homes, human bodies and anything else are just in the way.

Like those pin art toys where you can create images by pushing out certain pins, this mirror recreates your image by using hundreds of spokes and motors to re-align and replicate itself to look like the thing standing in front of it. It's a mind trip seeing little spokes making a bigger image.

By now, it's pretty much a fact that everyone uses Facebook (pipe down if you don't). It's also pretty much a fact that everyone watches
Game of Thrones too (shut up if you don't). But what if the characters in
Game of Thrones started using Facebook? It would be so hilarious

The word on the interwebs today is that this 1999 Angelfire page belongs to one Mark Zuckerberg. Yes,
that Mark Zuckerberg, which means this could be the very first website that the hoody that made Facebook ever created. If true, it's a time machine into the 15-year-old brain of the most powerful man on the Internet.

Almost everyone's been there at some point or another: after lugging armfuls of newly purchased groceries home, you put everything away only to realize you've forgotten the one item you actually needed. A minor problem, maybe, but near-infuriating, nonetheless. Fortunately, Shopster can help.

We rarely think twice about the technological complexity behind checking the forecast on our smartphones. But an intricately detailed mechanical watch, like
Breva's new Genie 01, that tells you what the weather will be like? There's something still wonderfully fascinating about checking a forecast that's produced and displayed via a series of complex analog mechanisms.

While hybrid planes like the the 787 Dreamliner and
SUGAR concept are far more fuel efficient than conventional airliners, they do still rely on a non-renewable and increasingly limited supply of jet fuel. However, recent tests conducted at MIT suggest that tomorrow's planes could take flight on the wings of an ionic breeze.

Have you ever had one of those days where you thought to yourself "Boy, I sure wish I didn't have this sexy yet expensive cocaine addiction"? Fortunately for you, there could be a new solution on the horizon, and all you have to do is

Twitter
just overhauled the look and feel of its Android app from what felt like a clunky afterthought into something slick and lovely. Move the slider in the image above back and forth to see a before and after comparison of the design. When the slider is on the right side, you're looking at the new design.

Transitioning back to normal life after WWII had its fair share of challenges for soldiers, one of which was a housing shortage.
Lustron houses—prefabricated enamel steel homes—were a direct response to the dearth. This is a
1949 picture of all of the components of one of the cookie cutter abodes laid out like puzzle pieces.

You know a chess piece when you see one. They might be the most recognizable objects in gaming. But they didn't always look that way. In fact, for the longest time they didn't even look
a way. The Smithsonian Magazine
dug into the roots of that iconic design and it's not as old as you might think.

Although the technology behind wireless headphones is still improving, that's no reason to skip the current options if you know you want Bluetooth headphones. Some of them are pretty good. Last year Giz alum
Adrian Covert tried a bunch of major Bluetooth headphones and liked the Phillipe Starck-designed Parrot Zik the best.

Airports are a weird contradiction; labyrinthine roadways and arteries between terminals, surrounded by an expanse of seemingly limitless straightaways. Put both together and you get wonderfully calculated mayhem, and
a few killer photos.

While watching sports, have you ever stopped (midway through a bowl of Cheetos) to wonder, "How far are those guys actually running?" It's a common question, one that's historically been subject mostly to guesswork, Thanks to some recent technological developments, though, we can now actually apply some data to it.

Remember that utterly depressing abandoned factory island that Javier Bardem's character used as his headquarters in
Skyfall? It's actually a real place known as
Hashima—or Battleship island—that was built and used as a coal mining facility until it was abandoned in 1974. It's kind of a sad tale, so it's a little confusing as to why Sony chose such an upbeat and whimsical soundtrack for this tour of the island using
one of its action cams attached to a multi-bladed copter. Maybe they have plans to turn it into a family-friendly resort? [

NASA just released its 2012 compilation of the best views of Earth from orbit over the past year. They're stunning. They mix "true-color" imagery with data visualizations and 3D imagery from some of the newest satellites in NASA's fleet. Time-lapses, weather patterns, even the movement of currents—the way NASA sees our planet is something beautiful to see. [

Finding the Higgs Boson particle is a revolutionary scientific discovery, sure, but CERN isn't the only scientific body rewriting our understanding of elementary physics. An international team of researchers have just announced that the massive cosmic ray detector protruding from the ISS may have at long last detected dark matter.

Separating the recyclable trash from the rest of your garbage is made slightly easier, and more pleasing to the eye, with these
stackable Qualy bins featuring a strategically placed indent for easy access. They can be stacked all the way to the ceiling without their footprint increasing, and each bin features a lid and an inner lip supporting a plastic bag liner. Translation: you may never have to scrub them out.

We're all grown up, but magnifying glasses are still pretty cool. It's not just that they can create miniature fires; it's that seeing things really big or really small is always amusing. And for this week's
