MacPaint Art From The Mid-80s Still Looks Great Today I really enjoyed browsing the BMUG's CD-ROM and discovering earliy 80s art made in MacPaint, so I browsed all 18,000+ MacPaint images on Discmaster to see what gems I can unearth. Here is some what I found - I've got so many more cool icons/smaller drawings kept aside for the next time I'm bored and feel like making a blog post. Would be cool to try track down some of these artists and see what they're up to these days. If they could do thi

These ‘4K-Like’ AR Glasses Are Actually Only 1080p, but I Want Them All the Same

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-03-03 09:00:27

When it comes to gadget specs, it’s best to be precise. For example, if you were buying a TV, you may want to know the resolution, and if you showed up to Best Buy and the tag on your brand-spanking-new Sony said “kind of, sort of, 4K,” you’d probably have some questions. Same goes for AR glasses, in my opinion, but that didn’t stop Viture from slapping “4K-like” branding on all of its new frames. It also doesn’t stop me from wanting them all the same.

Summer in the U.S. is now in full swing. That means plenty of outdoor fun, Sun, and, unfortunately, for many of us, tiny eight-legged ticks to avoid. Ticks and the many illnesses they carry, like Lyme disease, are a growing public health threat. Just this week, for instance, the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that 2025 so far has seen the highest number of tick-related emergency room visits recorded since 2019.

An economic downturn combined with high inflation is a double-whammy for your finances.

How to Watch the Southern Delta Aquariids and Perseids Meteor Showers

wired.com Gretchen Rundorff 2026-03-03 09:00:00

If you want to get into stargazing in 2025, there’s no better place to start than viewing a meteor shower. Meteor showers, or shooting stars, happen when Earth’s orbital path crosses a path of debris left by a comet and that material burns up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Watching a meteor shower is one of the most accessible ways to engage with the night sky. The next showers of the year are the Southern Delta Aquariids—which peak for about a week at the end of July—and the Perseids—which will pe
