Whatch'a looking at?

I'll be honest with you—I really hate life hacks. They started off well, with people sharing clever ways to make life a little easier . But ever since “life hack” videos became insanely viral, we’ve seen YouTube channels like “5-Minute Crafts,” which is probably the worst thing on the internet right now. These channels offer a collection of incredibly dumb life hacks, like fixing a broken screen with toothpaste or using a glue gun to make see-through gloves. But even without these terrible chan…

Buying a new phone or a new computer will always cost a pretty penny but I don't think we appreciate how good we have it today, relative to how things were back when home computing just started. Computers back then were considered a luxury and they cost accordingly. Don't let the prices you see in these ads fool you. At first you look at an ad to a home computer going for 4,495 dollars and you say to yourself “Yes, that's not cheap but it isn't that bad” well, you are not taking inflation into…

There are three types of people in this world: those who can cook, those who can’t, and those who should stay as far away from the kitchen as possible. We’re not just talking about the ability ( or lack thereof ) to whip up a delicious meal. We’re talking about the people who might burn your house down trying to make a bowl of cereal—people who can’t even pour a cup of water without turning the kitchen into a war zone. It takes talent to prepare a mouth-watering meal, but it takes a whole diffe…

Way before the rise of the hipsters there were nerds . Although not as smug and, frankly obnoxious as hipsters, nerds tend to say things that only they, and a small group of other people with the same interests would understand. The are the originators of the “Umm.. actually” phrase, that only exist to differentiate between those who know and those who do not, in fact, know. “Oh, you don't know what Avogadro's number is? No, you probably never heard of it, why would you? Than you will probably…

In a world still recovering from a global pandemic, the news that scientists have uncovered 1,700 new viruses might sound like the last thing we need. But before you start stockpiling toilet paper again, rest assured these viruses are ancient, frozen for tens of thousands of years in a Tibetan glacier. And no, they’re not here to cause the next pandemic. Instead, they offer a fascinating glimpse into the distant past of our planet. Let’s dive into this icy adventure!

What is it about this dark, bitter, hot beverage that I love so much? And believe me, I really do love my coffee! If I had my way, I’d drink nothing but coffee all day. Actually, come to think of it, it *is* up to me, and that’s exactly what I do—I drink about 7 cups a day! I recently cut back on making every single one of those with a double shot of espresso. If you’re worried about my health, don’t be. I’ve Googled “How much coffee is too much coffee?” more times than I care to admit, and the…

It feels like personal house robots are just around the corner. Tesla is working on its own robot servant , along with several other companies that are making leaps in a field that was long considered a pipe dream, thanks to advances in image recognition and AI. But what if we told you that 40 years ago, you could have purchased a home robot that could do much more than you would expect from a robot of the 1980s? In 1984, Hubot emerged as a pioneer in the world of personal robotics, offering a…

I'm just going to say it: I'm really glad to be out of school . And it's not that I don't love learning new things—on the contrary, it's still one of my favorite things to do. It's just that the entire school system feels outdated and obsolete to me. Not just the idea of putting children in a closed room for hours and expecting them to memorize irrelevant information, but also the textbooks those kids are supposed to learn from. These textbooks are almost always out of date, badly written, and…

Have you tried switching it off and then on again?

Sure, anyone can do their job properly, but where's the fun in that? In this hilarious listicle , people from various different professions share some awkward and down-right ridicules stock photos of their jobs. For some reason, it seems like stock photo photographers are obsessed with representing every profession out there as wrongly as possible. Is your subject an environmental scientist? have him sit in the mud in a full hazmat suit next to a house plant. Is je a biologist? Show him injecti…
