Quantum computing will change our world. But currently, it's just about impossible.

Fantastic parents convince their kids that toy dinosaurs are real
Nov 16, 2:54AM
Kids will believe anything so why not let them imagine and wonder and dream and believe in magic? We all have to become semi-responsible, half functioning adults some day so let kids be kids, right? Refe Tuma and his wife certainly think so. Every November, Refe and his wife try and convince their kids that their toy dinosaurs come to life at night while they sleep. It's so fun.

What you're looking at is a cat lung being blown up with a straw. I know. It's ginormous. More ginormous than what you would think is inside a cat. But that's because lungs are incredibly expandable. What looks like a pile of bloody meat inflates into this perfectly pink balloon.

Nov 16, 12:02AM
A sinkhole the size of twenty football fields swallowing trees and swamps, like the one that evacuated Bayou Corne, Louisiana a year ago, is already terrifying. But what's more scary might be what's happening now: the danger of an exploding sink hole that'll look like the gates of hell.

Our Favorite Android, iOS and Windows Phone Apps of the Week
Nov 15, 11:00PM
Thanksgiving is almost here, and that means sitting awkwardly at a dinner table with people you probably only see once a year. Load up your phone with some brand-spankin'-new apps, so you've got something to distract yourself when the conversation turns uncomfortably personal or political. Or both.

Nov 15, 10:40PM
Holograms are cool enough on their own, but amazing things happen when you make them incredibly small.

Nov 15, 10:28PM
Happy Friday, internet dwellers. The week has wound down, Batkid has saved the day, and all that's left is to go home and curl up around your new iPad Mini's warm glow. There's still some minutes left in the day, though, so what better way to cap off a helluva week than a good ol' fashioned open thread? Talk about whatever you'd like! For instance, I was just discussing books with a certain Gizmodo employee—more specifically, the fact that, despite what he may think, physical books are in no way obsolete and, in fact, fulfill a very necessary function.

Nov 15, 10:00PM
We humans love to eat, and we love to drink. So it's no surprise that we're always trying to come up with solid forms of alcohol, to eat what we can drink.
