HTC's zapped its flagship One design with its embiggening rays, and scaled the One Max up to gigantic proportions. At 5.9-inches, it's in that scary land where it's either a really large phone, or a phablet. We're not quite sure HTC knows what it is either.

His heart was racing at 185 beats per minute when he jumped from an altitude of 127,852 feet, then started to spin at 60 revolutions per minute and kept spinning for 13 seconds after jumping, reaching a maximum vertical speed of Mach 1.25. An incredible feat.

Sonic 3's Ice Cap Zone Theme Played on Floppy Drives is Totally Rad
Oct 14, 1:00AM
When I was little, I was a huge Sega fanboy. Sure Mario is great and all, but Sonic was where it was at. Looking back, I'm not sure the gameplay holds up that well but you can't deny there were some great tunes. And this is one of them, and even better on floppies.

Oct 13, 11:35PM
Privacy is on everyones' minds in the U.S. since revelations about the NSA exploded. You can't talk on the phone about some casual pot smoking anymore without your friend making the, "Hi NSA!" joke. And apparently for good reason.

These Stars May Look Mellow But They're Resisting A Huge Black Hole
Oct 13, 8:53PM
Nothing is ever as tranquil as it seems. This image is pretty and has lots of fun, trippy colors. But all of that variation is being produced by gas, dust and other matter as whole galaxies fall into a supermassive black hole. Created from Hubble data, the image shows the cosmic tug-of-war going on in the Perseus Cluster of Galaxies 230 million light years away.

Oct 13, 6:00PM
One time I called Time Warner customer service because the internet was out in my apartment. The man I spoke to was friendly. He had information about an outage in my area. He had an estimate of how long it would be before service was restored. And he was allowed to tell me that estimate.

Pencils Are Even More Deadly When They're Actually Steel Nails
Oct 13, 4:49PM
The thing I appreciate about The Slingshot Channel is that it always brings projects two or three iterations past what I would ever think to pursue. The pencil shooter Joerg made last week was more of a curiosity. Not the most deadly thing we've seen by a long shot. See what I did there?

Weirdly, A Reverse To-Do List Makes A Lot of Sense
Oct 13, 3:28PM
It's fun to check things off of a to-do list, but often what's more important is remembering when you last did something. Is it time to change the water filter? Get a new toothbrush? Go to the doctor? If you had something in your calendar the last time you did it, it's fairly easy to check how long its been, but if not you're out of luck.

A Robotic Petting Zoo Is Just as Creepy-Awesome as it Sounds
Oct 13, 2:24PM
Petting zoos are fun, but they can also be kind of sketchy. Is that rabbit being attacked by too many five-year-olds? Is that goat depressed? It's awkward. But if the tactile experience were coming from robots and AI you might really be able to enjoy yourself.
