gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-11-23 08:33:20

Toxic Avenger‘s unrated cut gets wild. Edgar Wright’s Running Man is running a little late. Plus, Russell T Davies hypes up the new Doctor Who spin-off, War Between the Land and the Sea. To me, my spoilers! The Toxic Avenger According to Bloody-Disgusting, the unrated cut of The Toxic Avenger includes a scene in which the titular character “finds himself in a unique situation where the only way to escape is to weaponize his radioactive urine,” revealing the character’s “Monster Dong.” Luckily,

Dead EV Batteries Are Hoarding a Shocking Amount of Useful Lithium

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-11-23 08:40:53

The lithium batteries we deem unfit for use in electric vehicles might still contain copious amounts of usable, pure lithium we could retrieve and reuse—a potentially consistent, bountiful supply we’re just not trying hard enough to tap into, a new study suggests. In a study published August 14 in the Journal of Environmental Management, researchers at Edith Cowan University (ECU) in Australia argue that tapping into the leftover lithium in used batteries could fuel a pragmatic, sustainable alt

Google is testing customizable calling cards for Android that show up when your friends call

Google has started rolling out customizable calling cards for the beta versions of its Android Contacts and Phone apps. Android Authority found clues that the company was working on the feature back in July when it did an APK teardown. Now, you can give it a try if you decide to install the beta versions of the apps.

Dyson Airwrap Co-anda 2x Review: Great, Not a Must-Have

wired.com Boutayna Chokrane 2025-11-23 23:30:00

Each attachment is embedded with RFID chips that auto-adjust heat and airflow based on your last-used settings. Not a revolutionary change, but it is nice not to have to toggle settings every time I switch attachments. You can also pair it with Dyson's app, which offers tutorials based on your hair type and goals. Dyson also moved the fan and heat controls to the base of the handle. It’s a cleaner look, but it can get finicky if you’re used to adjusting settings mid-styling. If you’ve already p

Snapshots of Kids Bike Jumping in the 1970s

news.ycombinator.com Sheldon D. 2025-11-19 21:37:20

Back in the 1970s (and before), parents didn’t stress about our health and safety as much as they do today. It’s not that they cared less – they just didn’t worry obsessively about it. It’s a far guess to say that some of the kids seen bike jumping and being bike jumped (which is the more dangerous?) are parents now – which means that they survived and can recall how less restricted, less supervised, less obsessively safety-conscious things were – and it was fine.

Booking.com phishing campaign uses sneaky 'ん' character to trick you

Threat actors are leveraging a Unicode character to make phishing links appear like legitimate Booking.com links in a new campaign distributing malware. The attack makes use of the Japanese hiragana character, ん, which can, on some systems, appear as a forward slash and make a phishing URL appear realistic to a person at a casual glance.

Airbrush art of the 80s was Chrome-tastic (2015)

The 80’s was a decade of many things — excess, greed, and big hair, to name a few — but it was also the heyday for airbrush art. As a teenager in the late 80’s, I desperately wanted an airbrush so I could paint my favorite band logos on the back of my jean jacket, and maybe make some money on the side painting t-shirts and license plates. I thought those guys on the boardwalk selling custom shirts were gods — how could they produce such amazing works of art in just minutes? My graduation gift f

I love my grill, but standing over blazing flames in 90-degree weather isn't my idea of summer fun. Cooking indoors isn't much better -- the oven turns the whole house into a sauna, and firing up the gas range with the windows closed can hurt indoor air quality. That's where the air fryer comes in. These compact powerhouses cook quickly while using far less energy than a traditional oven, making them a perfect heat wave solution.
