Seeing strangers take off each other's clothes is quite awkward
Jul 11, 2:56AM
Here's the official, anted up sequel to First Kiss, called Undress Me, which means "strangers" are taking off each others clothes now in a video to promote the new season of Masters of Sex. It doesn't quite have the well acted charm of the original and you feel more like a voyeur this time around but watching beautiful people act clumsy around each other kind of soothes your inner awkward teenage soul in a "Hey, they're just like us!" kind of way.

Jul 11, 1:00AM
If Google were a real person, he would probably have the world's most frustrating job.

Future Islands: In the Fall
Jul 10, 11:00PM
The relationship between scent and our memory centers is well-documented, but I'm guessing sound must be located nearby, too. Certain songs and albums have a powerful tendency to cement themselves to the moment in time when you first discovered them.

Jul 10, 10:40PM
For some of us who type all day for a living, the world is too quiet. We pine for the whir of the Xerox machine, the rattle of rotary telephones, the clackety-clack of the typewriter. A slightly romantic vision, maybe, but no longer completely impossible, thanks to this keyboard modeled to look exactly like a vintage typewriter.

According to observations made by the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope, the Universe is missing 80 percent of all its light. Astronomers are completely baffled: "We still don't know for sure what it is, but at least one thing we thought we knew about the present day universe isn't true."
This Compact Device Keeps Small Electronics Running on Emergency Power
Jul 10, 10:00PM
A UPS—or uninterruptible power supply—beneath your desk can be a lifesaver if your building loses electricity while you're working. However, most people don't own one because a UPS is typically designed for power-hungry desktop computers and end up being heavy and expensive—but not APC's new tiny and cheap Back-UPS Connect 70.
Why a Once-Hated 1980s Design Movement Is Making a Comeback
Jul 10, 9:40PM
Although you know it when you see it, it's hard to accurately describe Memphis design without resorting to specific 1980s pop cultural references. It's Pee-Wee's Playhouse meets Miami Vice. It's Saved By The Bell plus Beetlejuice. And it's all coming back, in a very big way.

Jul 10, 9:30PM

We've been expecting a new batch of Intel-powered chromebooks since May, and the first one is here: meet the Acer C720, the first to pack a full-on Core i3 processor in addition to up to 4GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage. Pretty muscular for a browser-based device.
Watch a Young Terry Gilliam Explain How He Makes Monty Python Animations
Jul 10, 9:20PM
There's a lot to love about vintage Monty Python—dead parrots, silly walks, lumberjacks, killer rabbits—but Terry Gilliam's magic touch with his signature cut-out animations really gave the group a goofball creative edge. In this clip from the early 1970s, a fresh-faced Gilliam (with an incredible 'do) describes his no-tech approach to the process.

Jul 10, 8:41PM
High up in the hills of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory sit four square, blue buildings you'd be forgiven for finding nondescript.

These labs—including one that rotates 270 degrees—are where office buildings of the future will be tested.

Jul 10, 8:20PM
As climate change begins posing new challenges to conventional outdoor food production methods, hydroponic farming has made quick gains in popularity thanks to its space- and energy-saving design. This enormous indoor lettuce farm for example—the largest of its kind in the world—produces 10,000 heads a day in less space than a single American football field and could signal a sea change in how we get our greens.
