When you think of prosthetics, you think of something made for some with a disability — and rightly so. But designer Dani Clode designed the Third Thumb to change the way we think about prosthetics — by augmenting what's already there and enhancing what humans can do.
Dubai's Atlantis, The Palm is home to the Aquaventure Waterpark.

The Lonely Island were asked to write a song for the 90th Academy Awards ceremony. If you actually watched the Oscars, you're probably scratching your head wondering how you missed it.

Usually, there isn't any audio, but that changed with the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper and its rather creepy loop. Steve Mould shows how being a little creative with something that only serves a very utilitarian function makes vinyl special.
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.

Who is Doug Jones? Hollywood's most famous faceless man, Doug Jones is the guy in the suit — from Hellboy to the Faun and Pale Man of Pan's Labyrinth, The Shape of Water's Fishman, and about 150 other roles. When he isn't in a monster suit, he's just a tall, skinny guy on the street and much nicer than the characters he plays.
