Projectiles have been traveling faster than the speed of sound for hundreds of years. Giaco Whatever decided it's time for NERF darts to have their chance. His DIY compressed air-powered NERF gun successfully fired a dart at over Mach 2.3 — or over 2,587 feet per second.
After a staged attack kills the President and most of Congress, a theocracy called the Republic of Gilead installs a militaristic dictatorship in the United States. Women's rights are severely curtailed, and some are taken into bondage to produce offspring for the ruling class. Offred, played by Elisabeth Moss of Mad Men fame, is one of these reproductive "handmaids", and is forced into an illicit affair with the Commander, a high-ranking member of the ruling class. This dystopian look at the future comes to Hulu April 26, 2017.

Rogue One director Gareth Edwards talks with WIRED about how the scene was initially planned versus how it ended up on the big screen.
Bar soap rarely gets an upgrade, but the Duke Cannon Soap Puck rethinks the format with a compact, palm-sized design built for grip, portability, and longevity. Triple-milled for a denser, longer-lasting bar, it delivers a rich lather while holding up better than typical soaps, making it just as suited for daily showers as it is for gym bags and travel kits. Formulated with natural oils and free of phthalates, it cleans without overcomplicating things, while the rounded puck shape feels deliberate in hand. It's a small shift in form that turns a basic essential into something more considered and durable.

No one writes a song by themselves. Whether we know it or not, all the music we've heard before is shaping what we're creating today. Kanye's hit single "Famous" is a perfect of example of the amalgam of music — the samples, original music, and even the main idea of the song are layered together in a mash of old and new. Noisy Images launches a full-on investigation of "Famous" and pieces together the elements that Kayne draws from.

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.
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.
