Holy Crap, Tamagotchis Are Coming Back From the Dead
Nov 24, 2:00PM
Remember Tamagotchis? Of course you do. They taught you about responsibility. They taught you about friendship. And perhaps most importantly, they taught you that friends don't leave friends in feces-filled rooms for days at a time—because then they will die. But now, it's time to impart that wisdom on a new generation. Rejoice, friends, for the Tamagotchi is back.

These awesome airplanes are not images from Iron Man 4
Nov 24, 6:54AM
Some jet fighter photos look so perfectly choreographed and sharp that I automatically think they must be computer generated frames from some movie or game. These ones are very real. When I see them, I hear someone in my head screaming "EVASIVE MANEUVER!"

Nov 24, 2:00AM
With a movie adaptation like The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, it's easy to get swept up in the pop culture hype, and lose sight of what's really important: how hot are the boys? Fortunately, Philip K. Rosenthal is here with a deeper look.

The Byrds' Best Song About Being High . . . In an Airplane
Nov 24, 12:58AM
We've spent a good bit of time this week talking about airplanes — specifically, whether we'll soon be allowed to use our smartphones in-flight. But the grumbling over in-flight gadgets makes us forget how utterly far out it is that man can fly in the first place. Time to trip out with some psychedelic music, man.

Nov 24, 12:16AM
Next time you go to Titan—one of Saturn's moons—remember this cool factoid: "The atmosphere is so thick and the gravity so low that humans could fly through it by flapping 'wings' attached to their arms" as pointed out in Robert Zubrin's Entering Space: Creating a Spacefaring Civilization. How awesome would that be?

Nov 23, 9:19PM
No, this is not a photoshop. You are looking at a fresh tomato—a cosmomato? A tomatonaut?—floating in space, orbiting at 4.791 miles per second, 230 miles above your heads. Why the hell is there a tomato in space?

Ever Forced Yourself to Quit Checking a Certain Website?
Nov 23, 8:00PM
Some websites just become a part of your routine, a habit. You check for updates five, 20, 60 times a day. You hit refresh more times than you can keep track of. It seems a lot like an addiction. And sometimes you need to quit, for your own well being.

Nov 23, 3:04PM
On Thursday, Philadelphia became the first U.S. city to enact a ban on 3D printed guns. It's a pre-emptive move, because so far there hasn't been a single report of 3D printed firearms showing up in Philly. As an assistant to the bill's author told Philly Magazine, "it's just based on internet stuff out there."

Watch what happens when graffiti artists are given a giant blank room
Nov 23, 4:41AM
When you give graffiti artists a giant empty warehouse with blank walls, what do you get? So much good stuff. It's like opening up an incredible Pandora's box of visual delight that makes you believe in magic and makes you wonder why don't we give artists more space to spray. The art was created by Sofles, Fintan Magee, Treas and Quench. The video is by Selina Miles for Ironlak films. I can watch it forever.

This Instagram movie proves that every Instagram picture is the same
Nov 23, 4:03AM
So this is cool: Filmmaker Thomas Jullien created a pretty sweet short movie by weaving together random strangers' Instagram pictures to form a story. It starts with a bike ride to Paris and zaps you to New York and pretty much everywhere else in between. 852 Instagram pictures from 852 Instagram users come together for this lovely little short but by seeing all these pictures in a pseudo stop animation you realize how similar all of our photos end up being. Nothing is original. We're all just frames in someone's next movie.
