Bellyflop Competition
Hear that? That is the sound of pain. Oslo, Norway, is home to the official dødsing competition, more commonly known in English as bellyflopping. The goal of the sport is to curl into a ball a split second before hitting the water, saving the competitors a painful slap and scoring points with the judges. Judging by the footage, it's every bit as hard as it sounds.
We're Living in a Simulation
Philosopher Nick Bostrom thinks there is a 20% chance that this universe is a simulation. Created by our future selves and running on an advanced computer, Bostrom believes that there could be an infinite number of these "ancestor" simulations. His arguments are so persuasive that he's convinced Elon Musk and Bill Gates that he's probably right.

Roborock Saros 10R Robotic Floor Cleaner
Homes with complex layouts and/or a lot of floor obstacles can befuddle a lot of robot cleaners. With the StarSight Autonomous System 2.0, Roborock's Saros 10R handles them with ease. Its 3D ToF sensors and visual recognition technology allow it to create 3D maps of its environment — as opposed to the 2D tech in most robovacs — boosting sampling frequency, response times, and the ability to see small objects. As the thinnest Roborock yet, it easily navigates under furniture and into hard-to-reach spots. It has a dual anti-tangle system for dealing with hair and an industry-first AdaptiLift Chassis to easily tackle thresholds and obstacles up to 1.5" tall; the latter joins a liftable mop, main brush, and side brush to make this one of the most versatile cleaners on the market. Enjoy $200 off through 2/16.

Sushi Robot
It may be the future of sushi, but the future of good sushi? We're not so sure. Built by Kawasaki, this bot is more of a sushi assembly machine, stacking precut pieces of fish on formed rice. And not to mention that wasabi from a tube. Although this seems to be just the beginning of an animatronic chef, we don't think Jiro has anything to worry about anytime soon.
Evolution of Racing Helmets
Rule #1 of racing: Protect your dome. Keeping the grey matter inside the skull has become a top priority in racing, and the helmet has evolved to meet that challenge. From the early days when helmets were little more than scarves to keep out dust, dirt, and exhaust, to modern impact-resistant lids of Kevlar and carbon fiber, helmets serve both form and function.
