Nascent Materials emerges from stealth to make LFP batteries better and cheaper

Lithium-ion batteries have dropped in cost by 75% over the past decade, a marvel of research and development that isn’t the result of a singular breakthrough but of myriad incremental improvements.

Sharma spent a little over two years working at Tesla’s Gigafactory in Nevada and another two leading iM3NY, a lithium-ion manufacturer in New York.

Extreme Heatwave Makes This Handheld Mini Fan Almost Free, this Amazon Deal Won’t Last but the Heat Will

It turns out that Summer is pretty hot for most of us. While there are those who proclaim to love being cooked alive while out and about, but we reckon they’re lying.

Can’t change smart light colors with Google Assistant? You’re not alone

Netflix Noooo! One of My Favorite Games and 21 Others Will Get the Axe Soon

More than a year after Netflix added the award-winning game Hades to its gaming service, the streaming giant will remove the game from its service on July 1. No, I'm not crying, I just have something in my eye. Supergiant Games released Hades in 2018 to near-universal acclaim before releasing the game on Netflix. It won numerous awards, including Game of the Year and Action Game of the Year at the 24th Annual D.I.C.E. Awards. It also made history as the first (and so far only) game to win a Hug

Snake Venom, Urine, and a Quest to Live Forever: Inside a Biohacking Conference Emboldened by MAHA

I have been to the undying convention. I have been pressurized in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber and bathed in flickering gamma-wave light. I have had my electromagnetic field manipulated. I have taken an IV drip of green liquid that looked nearly radioactive. I have been frozen in a cryochamber (and felt amazing afterward) and baked in a one-man, zippable sauna (I didn’t). I have eaten more consecutive meals of beef than ever in my life, grinding unrefined Kalahari desert salt over the slabs of f

This New Watch Is Being Purpose-Built for Space Exploration—and It's Not an Omega

When you think of space exploration and watches, one name immediately comes to mind: Omega. Since its Speedmaster chronograph was selected by NASA half a century ago it has become synonymous with space travel. The timing of a 13-second engine burn to save Apollo 13 cemented its role in space history, and Omega has not missed a single opportunity to deepen the partnership, from officially naming it the Moonwatch to creating endless commemorative limited editions (even if it is by no means the onl

Zombie Dong Will Return in ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’

Two topics of conversation dominated the opening weekend of Danny Boyle’s new film, 28 Years Later. One, that wild ending that introduced a seemingly out-of-place controversial new character. And two was the sheer amount, and size, of the penises seen in the film. Throughout 28 Years Later, the Rage virus-infected zombies that run around the mainland are all naked. As one would be if you’d been running around killing people as a zombie for 30 years. That means, yes, there’s lots of nudity in th

Samsung needs to build a Galaxy Watch that looks as good as this mod

TL;DR A Redditor modified a mechanical watch body to fit the electronics from a Samsung Galaxy Watch 4. The 40mm Watch 4 was supposedly the only one small enough to fit in the case, which appears to be from a Panerai Luminor watch. Even the crown button is reportedly functional. What’s the most customizable device you own? Plenty of us dress up our phones with a case intended to help it stand out, but we might argue that smartwatches place an even higher priority on customization. Alternate b

This 250W Charging Station Replaces All Your Chargers, Now at a Record Low Price for Early Prime Day

Amazon’s one-day deals are coming out before Prime Day and this year there is a true gem for customers who appreciate speed and efficiency in charging. Although 10,000mAh or 20,000mAh power banks are convenient for charging your phone or tablet while on the move, they do not suffice for quick charging of laptops, tablets, and several devices. Anker has a bunch to pick up this slack and for now, the Anker 250W GaN-powered charge station is on sale for a record-low $119 from its normal $170. This

The ‘GQuuuuuuX’ Finale Might Be One of the Most Hopeful ‘Gundam’ Endings in Years

So much of Gundam GQuuuuuuX‘s riffing on the legacy of the 1979 original across its 12 episodes has been almost about a yearning sense of inevitability that it could only end in one way—a retread of what came before narratively, and a continuation of the cycle of conflict that has broadly defined the franchise at large and the Universal Century setting that GQuuuuuuX played with in particular. But in its final episode, GQuuuuuuX played with its nostalgic sensibilities one last time to imagine fo

I Won't Be Getting the New Chase Sapphire Reserve. Here's Why

Chase/CNET The Chase Sapphire Reserve®* is well-known among travel enthusiasts and average credit card users as a great travel credit card.

Aside from the higher fee, the biggest changes to the card are a greater emphasis on annua

OpenAI's hardware plans with Jony Ive just hit a legal snag

‘The Strangers – Chapter 2’ Pays Homage to ‘Halloween II’ in First Trailer

Maya (Madelaine Petsch) survived the horrors of The Strangers—but she can’t breathe easy yet. The hospital where she’s supposed to be recovering is hardly a safe place, as the first trailer for The Strangers – Chapter 2 reveals. Remember when Laurie Strode realized Michael Myers had followed her to Haddonfield Memorial Hospital in Halloween II, intent on finishing what he’d started in the first film? Same vibes here. As slasher fans may recall, Renny Harlin (A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dre
