Auk Mini Review: Start Your Own Seeds, Scandinavian Style

wired.com Kat Merck 2025-09-20 05:00:00

In my ongoing quest to put as many of the popular indoor hydroponic garden systems as I can through their paces, I have noticed something irritating. Many, if not most, of these systems require—or at minimum, strongly suggest—ordering proprietary seed pods, inserts, or capsules from the company itself. You can jury-rig, of course, but usually at your own hassle and failure risk. If you order through the companies, not only can the excess packaging be wasteful, the costs add up quickly (competit

The Digital Version of ‘Twilight Imperium’ Will Save You So Much Clean Up Time

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-09-20 17:00:21

Twilight Imperium has had a rep for endurance almost since it was first introduced. A dense tabletop experience of spacebound strategy, it’s become the face of marathon-length board gaming as players spend hours after hours dictating their space operatic maneuvers through the medium of many, many, many little tokens and cards being shuffled and passed around the board. So, good news for people who’ve always been interested but daunted by those occasionally tall tales of just what an effort it ev

Spirit Airlines Pilot Reportedly Warned to ‘Get Off the iPad’ After Veering Too Close to Air Force One

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-09-21 09:45:16

President Trump was in the air recently en route to the United Kingdom for a meeting with the nation’s leadership, and as Air Force One flew over Long Island, the craft got just a little too close to another plane, a Spirit Airlines flight on its way to Boston. The New York Times reports that the Spirit flight was given a stern warning by the air traffic control tower, which condescendingly told the pilot to “get off the iPad” and pay better attention to the path of the plane they were supposed

Unprecedented ‘Einstein Cross’ Reveals Fifth Ghost Image and a Dark Matter Surprise

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-09-22 05:30:14

When gravity—an invisible yet ubiquitous force—bends and distorts light from distant galaxies, Earthbound observers get a rare glimpse of elusive cosmic phenomena. And the weirder the glitch, the more insightful the finding, as a team of astronomers recently discovered. These glitches are formally referred to as Einstein Crosses. As light from a distant galaxy travels toward our observatories, the gravitational force of galaxies closer to us bends that light, creating an image of four bright do

This PS5 Update Lets DualSense Controllers Pair With Multiple Devices at the Same Time

All you PlayStation 5 players can now pair your wireless DualSense controllers with up to four devices at a time and toggle between them. For some time, you've been able to pair your DualSense controllers not just with PS5s and other PlayStation consoles, but also with PCs, Macs, smartphones and other Bluetooth devices. But that pairing could happen with only one device at a time; using a different device with a DualSense required pairing all over again. That changes now, with system update 25

Insta360 Go Ultra Review: This Tiny Action Camera Got Swacked by a Sword, and Survived

2025 My brother punched his rapier toward my head. The blade missed me by inches, but the clever duelist swiped down and chopped at my crown, sending the $450 action camera attached to my fencing mask spinning away. The magnetic pod for Insta360’s Go Ultra tumbled to the floor, the light still blinking red, still recording. His sword left a gash along the side of the lens and a scuff on plastic.

60 years after Gemini, newly processed images reveal details

Six decades have now passed since some of the most iconic Project Gemini spaceflights. The 60th anniversary of Gemini 4, when Ed White conducted the first US spacewalk, came in June. The next mission, Gemini 5, ended just two weeks ago, in 1965. These missions are now forgotten by most Americans, as most of the people alive during that time are now deceased.

I don't like curved displays

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-25 00:24:24

I don't like curved displays The vast majority of media uses rectilinear lenses, where straight lines in 3D remain straight in a 2D image: Each light ray lands on a flat rectangle that lies between the viewpoint and the light source, so viewing the image on a flat screen looks exactly the same as how it originally appeared. A curved screen won't do that — straight lines are no longer straight!
