Driving a Real Mech
Mechs: They aren't just for animes and video games anymore. Yang Jin-Ho is the chairman of Hankook Mirae Technology, a company focused on robotics. And they're focused on big robotics, creating a fully-articulated mech, piloted by a human. Translogic went to South Korea to take a test drive in something straight out of science fiction.
No One Dies in Longyearbyen
Living on top of the world does strange things to people — just as the residents of Longyearbyen, the northernmost city on Earth. You don't want to be buried in Longyearbyen. The permafrost makes for shallow graves, and bodies sometimes come back up again. And as the Earth warms, the thawing permafrost is wreaking havoc, causing the Global Seed Vault to flood, and potentially releasing ancient pathogens into the atmosphere.

Nike Zoom Vomero 5
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.

Dreame L40 Ultra Gen 2 Robot Vacuum and Mop
The Dreame L40 Ultra Gen 2 continues the march toward fully autonomous floor care, combining powerful vacuuming with an equally capable mopping system in a package designed to require as little human intervention as possible. Its 25,000Pa Vormax suction, driven by a sixth-generation TurboForce motor, tackles everything from fine dust to pet hair and cat litter, while DuoScrub mopping and extendable SideReach and MopExtend technologies ensure corners, edges, and tight spaces don't get overlooked. The real centerpiece, however, is the multifunctional PowerDock, which automatically empties debris, cleans the mops, and uses hot-air drying to keep the system fresh between runs. Intelligent carpet handling, off-peak charging, and enough battery life to clean large homes in a single session round out a robot designed to do more than maintain floors. It aims to eliminate cleaning chores altogether, especially for busy households and pet owners.

Curb Your Enthusiasm / Season 9
It's nice to see that after a six-year hiatus nothing has changed. Larry is still just as socially unaware as ever and we couldn't be happier about it. See him get back to his old, neurotic ways when Curb Your Enthusiasm returns to HBO for a long-awaited ninth season October 1, 2017.
IT the Miniseries vs IT the Book
Once upon a time, there was a 1,100-page book called IT. Then there was a TV miniseries based on the book. Then there was a movie that we'll skip, and now, there's a feature-length film that hopefully skips the cheery montages for something a little more sinister. CineFix breaks down the changes you can expect to see between the book and miniseries.

Creating Neon with Montreal's Neon Family
In a converted two-story industrial building in Montreal, the Ateleir Neon Family is keeping the light alive. Gérald Collard and his company create commercial art in neon signs, with complex designs that are more than just a logo or call to eat at Joe's. And when Gérald isn't bending tubes, he's teaching — 25 years at the Espace Verre glass school.
The History of National Parks
Although Yellowstone National Park was established in the late 1800s, the National Park Service wasn't officially formed until 1916 — over 100 years ago. That's a whole lot of time to cover. So to make sure you get the full story without burning several hours on a complete documentary, filmmaker Ryan Maxey pieced together a timeline, going back as far as the Big Bang, in this abridged version of the history of our National Parks.

Nike P-6000 Shoe
Before running shoes became lifestyle staples, they were built with one purpose: logging miles. Nike revisits that era with the P-6000, a silhouette inspired by the Pegasus 25 and Pegasus 2006 that brings early-2000s running design back into everyday rotation. Layered mesh, genuine leather, and synthetic overlays create the technical look that defined the period, while a foam midsole delivers the comfort expected from a modern sneaker. Underfoot, a durable rubber outsole provides dependable traction whether navigating city streets, airport terminals, or weekend coffee runs. The P-6000 captures the grit of early performance footwear while fitting naturally into today's wardrobe.

Designing the iPhone 8
There was time before the softly-squared rectangle in everyone's pocket. The iPhone revolutionized the way we communicate, but over the last decade, it's been a design of compromises. The iPhone8 promises to be the iPhone that Apple has always wanted to make, as technology and design come together.
