Mike Tyson is no stranger to film. The boxer has made numerous cameos throughout the years but for the first time, he's taking the lead. In the movie directed by Egyptian filmmaker Raouf Abd El Aziz, Tyson is an ex-military official on a mission to protect a group of Egyptian refugees from Hafthor Bjornsson. Even with two powerhouses, the trailer is as painful as taking a punch from Iron Mike. Desert Strike premiered in Egypt in 2019 and is expected to release in The States sometime this year.
This is the real thing — kind of. After years of development, Hacksmith is finally ready to test its fully-functioning hoverboard after a few hiccups in testing, including catching on fire.

The modern sneaker rotation demands versatility. One day starts with a flight across the country, the next with a coffee stop across town. The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 thrives in both worlds, combining the technical complexity of an early-2000s running shoe with the understated versatility of an everyday staple. Layered mesh, synthetic suede, and plastic accents create a distinctive honeycomb-like look, while Zoom Air cushioning and a foam midsole provide comfort for long days on your feet. Originally built for performance, the Vomero 5 has become one of Nike's most adaptable silhouettes equally comfortable navigating airport terminals, city streets, and everything in between.

Four legends of the Civil Rights movement find themselves in a hotel room in Miami — Malcolm X, Cassius Clay, Sam Cooke, and Jim Brown — in director Regina King's One Might in Miami. . .

The robotics engineer built an Arduino-controlled pastry chef that replicated the cupcake process including pouring the dough, baking, and topping with icing. Although the presentation leaves a lot to be desired, the taste is there.

Built for long days that start in the surf and end somewhere near the bar, Brixton's latest trunk lineup balances heritage styling with modern performance without leaning too hard into either. The Blitz Boardshort is the more aggressive option, a lightweight stretch trunk cut from quick-dry polyester and spandex with a water-repellent finish, invisible zip pocket, drainage eyelet, and bold graphic treatments that push beyond the standard washed-out beach palette. Available in both 19-inch and 21-inch outseams, it is engineered to move cleanly from paddle-outs to pool decks with minimal fuss. Countering it is the Classic Trunk 17", a stripped-back staple with clean lines, minimal branding, and an easy shorter cut that feels rooted in vintage surf culture while still delivering dependable quick-dry performance. Together, the collection hits the sweet spot between technical utility and everyday wearability, exactly where Brixton tends to do its best work.

While most of us spent our New Year's at home alone, the Boston Dynamics robots rang in 2021 with a dance party.

It might be our only hope.
