Considering our only spacecraft in transit is taking 2.5 billion years to make the trip through it, human domination doesn't seem likely. But there could be a better way. Roey Tzezana explains the idea of von Neumann machines and how they could aid in getting civilization across our galaxy.
Wrestler André the Giant was huge in the ring, and even the big screen was barely enough to contain him.

No Small Parts looks at André's career in film and how being the biggest guy in the room wasn't always a good thing.

Imagine a swing so extreme you need a parachute to ride it. Red Bull takes the venerable playground mainstay to a whole other level, suspending it from hot air balloon 6,000 feet in the air. In the words of skydiver George Lettner, the 400-foot long swing is the realization of a childhood dream: "To swing higher and higher, and finally jump off and fly."
Collars & Co. got its start making polos masquerading as dress shirts. While they look good under jackets, the performance polos look equally as good under that most versatile of pieces, the quarter-zip pullover. Equally as suitable for a chilly morning round of golf as a breezy sunset dinner, they come in a variety of styles, including reversible styles, stretchy, wrinkle-resistant golf models, cashmere and merino blends, and even cable-knit offerings for cooler weather. No matter which one you choose, it's sure to become a wardrobe staple.

With the S8 MaxV Ultra, Roborock ensures every inch of your house is clean. The new model features a Flexi Arm Design with an extendable side brush that reaches into corners, while an Extra Edge Mopping System cleans along edges.

There are two things that couldn't possibly be better suited to each other: Netflix's Stranger Things and 8-bit video games. Imagine finding Barb and Will in a pixelated Upside Down, or flipping over vans with Eleven's superpowers. The 80s-inspired TV show gets an 80s-inspired 8-bit makeover that just screams to be developed into a real game.
