$350 million might not sound like blockbuster money in the era of AI arms races and satellite internet constellations, but in the audio world, it’s enough to rearrange the high-end soundscape. Samsung, through its audio specialist Harman International, just scooped up Bowers & Wilkins, Denon, Marantz, and Polk Audio from Masimo. If those names don’t immediately trigger goosebumps, ask anyone who’s ever agonized over speaker placement or debated the merits of lossless compression over...
Power outages have become more than just inconveniences. Ask anyone who’s lost refrigerated food during a storm, needed to keep vital medications at stable temperatures, or tried working remotely during a blackout. As more people face these challenges, the search for reliable backup power intensifies. Solar generators now emerge as the solution for those seeking emergency readiness and energy independence.
The market offers numerous options, and two specifications consistently rise to the...
Stalk-like arches and mushroom-inspired canopies create a whimsical shelter for the Mushroom Library, a children’s space in Yanzitou Village, rural China. Imagined as a “fantastical village landmark,” this unique library welcomes visitors and serves as the inviting gateway to a future community center.
Drawing inspiration from the fungi that thrive in the nearby forests, the design blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings. More than just an architectural statement, the Mushroom...
There is a nationwide talent war for frontline, skilled workers, and unfortunately, too many companies are losing. Turnover among deskless workers, who account for about 80% of the workforce globally, is high, and they are notoriously difficult to train through traditional training programs. Corporate training solutions that work for someone sitting behind a desk rarely work for someone on a job site or factory floor.
HR professionals cited employee engagement, retention, and...

White smoke poured from the Sistine Chapel chimney Thursday at 6:07 p.m. local time, signaling the end of the conclave and the election of a new pope to lead the Catholic Church. Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost of the United States is now the 267th pope, taking the name Pope Leo XIV.
Just a minute later, the folks behind Pope Crave broke their silence: “We don’t claim him,” they posted to their 93,000 followers, beating even the Vatican News portal to the update. “His views...
As we welcome the newest Pope after a mere 2-day-long conclave (I honestly thought it would last longer), our eyes are on the Vatican too – not the real Vatican but rather, this staggeringly detailed LEGO version of the Vatican City, built in 2018 by Rocco Buttliere. The 1:650 scale model is so hyper-accurate, it captures every single building visible in the area – and the only thing really missing is the white smoke that billowed from the conclave’s chimney a mere hours ago!
It’s...
The UK Government has revealed five extraordinary design proposals for the national memorial to Queen Elizabeth II, marking a significant milestone in creating a lasting tribute to Britain’s longest-reigning monarch. Located in St James’s Park, London, the memorial will honor the Queen’s extraordinary 70-year reign and her profound impact on the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.
The winning design will be announced in early Summer 2025 and unveiled in 2026, the late Queen’s...
The first glimpse of Newt reminded me of Wall-E, but this guy is different. Cuteness aside, the trash-collecting robot was a computer-generated character for the Pixar movie; Newt, on the other hand, is a companion robot built on demand from scratch. It is created and built by YouTuber Davis Dewitt of Backhaul Studios for the upcoming family-friendly, sci-fi movie The Lightning Code.
Slated to be theatrically released on May 9, 2025, the film revolves around a teenage inventor who has...
The Pagani Zonda is one of the most iconic supercars of the 21st century. First unveiled in 1999, it established Pagani as a serious name in high-performance automotive engineering. Known for its lightweight construction, V12 powertrain, and artistic design, the Zonda series has evolved through numerous iterations. The latest creation, the Zonda Unico is a one-off, custom-built model that adds a unique chapter to the Zonda legacy. Inspired by fighter jets and rugged mountain terrain, the...
Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was just elected as the new leader of the Catholic Church, seems to have similar views on the environment as his predecessor, Pope Francis. Prevost, who is taking the name Pope Leo XIV, has been outspoken about the need for urgent climate action and voiced his support for the use of climate technology such as solar panels and EVs.
Pope Francis, who died in April, made the climate crisis a central issue of his papacy. He urged fossil fuel executives to...
Since the beginning of backpacking, the need for lightweight tents has been second to none. Ever since, tent makers have toiled with fabrics and designs to trim the weight off of our backpacks. While some makers, including Canadian outdoor gear manufacturer Durston Gear, have made impeccable inroads with their renditions of the ultralight tents, the previously launched 1.9 lbs. X-Mid 2 being a tipping specimen, the space inside such tents continues to be a problem.
If a tent sheds its...
A hot new high-stakes competition show went viral on the internet this week that had fans placing bets, joining fantasy leagues, tweeting live updates, and posting daily recaps. But it wasn’t Love Island or Survivor. It was the conclave.
The conclave is the Catholic Church’s traditional process for picking a new pope. It involves sequestering dozens of cardinals in an locked-down Sistine Chapel for an indefinite period, during which time they use a series of votes to elect a new...
On 212 E 141st Place in Dolton, Illinois—just a few blocks from Andy’s hot dogs and Chuck’s Gun Shop & Pistol—resides a typical 5 bed, 3 bath, 1,200 sqft brick home that is about to become a landmark. Because it’s the childhood home of Robert Prevost, the cardinal who has just been elected to become the next Pope.
[Photo: Redfin]Listed on Redfin for $199,000 at the time of publishing, the home matches an address and tax records first reported by South Cook News. It also aligns...

On Wednesday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman announced Simo’s new role as CEO of Applications. She will report directly to him after transitioning out of her current role at Instacart later this year.
