Apollo 16 Lunar Rover Ridealong Upscaled To 4K, 60FPS

Because upscaling to 4K, 60FPS is clearly the new CSI zoom and enhance, this is a video from the Apollo 16 moon mission of a ridealong in the lunar rover to Station 4, Stone Mountain (the Cinco Crater) that’s been given the treatment. For reference, the original footage was 16mm and only 12 frames per second. That’s a whole lot more FPS now. It’s a trip, isn’t it? “What?” That after all these years NASA is still trying to convince us this isn’t an Arizona desert. You’d think they’d give up and try to fake something more believable like a journey to the center of the earth or something.
It Happens: Kid Playing Fetch With Dog Accidentally Picks Up And Throws Snake Instead Of Stick

This is a short video of young Asher playing fetch with his canine friend Raven and accidentally picking up and throwing a snake, presumably thinking it was just a really weird-ass stick. Even Raven is all, ‘Whoa, what the heck, little bro? That stick is ALIVE and it is ANGRY.’ Thankfully, the snake was unharmed and nobody was bitten and everyone lived happily ever after, and *getting teary eyed* I’d like to think Steve Irwin is looking down on us all smiling right now.
I bet he thought it was stick to throw for the dog. 😳🐍🐕#viralhog #unexpected #snakes pic.twitter.com/uXLjzPItm2

Thanks to MSA, who agrees never grow up. But also, learn to tell a snake from a stick.
Gallery Of Artist’s Incredible Comic Book Stained Glass Art

These are a few examples of the comic book cover stained glass art (plus BONUS Victorian/gothic Wolverine and Cyclops stained glass portraits) produced by artist Jesse Olwen (pieces available in his Etsy shop, Cyclops portrait $730). Obviously, they all include some glass painting as well because of all the too-small-to-cut-glass-for details. For reference, the X-Men cover measures 25″ x 16″. I’m particularly fond of the Wolverine and Cyclops portraits. I could see either one of those hanging in my bedroom window, watching my girlfriend longingly stare at it, my jealousy building. “Wait, what?” I’ll make a point to always close the blinds before making love.
Keep going for closeups of each, as well as the equally impressive Wolverine and Cyclops portraits.
Boston Dynamics’ Spot Robots Join Pepper Humanoid Robots To Cheerlead At Japanese Baseball Games

Because the world is going to hell in the bicycle basket of Wile E. Coyote’s rocket-powered jet-bike, the Nippon Professional Baseball team Softbank Hawks have added 20 Boston Dynamics Spot quadruped robots and 20 Softbank Robotics Pepper humanoid robots to the stands to act as cheerleaders in the fan-less Paypal Stadium during games while human admission slowly resumes. There’s a disconcerting video of them in action below (are those robot dogs gyrating?), and let me tell you, if I were a player I would be aiming for them. I’d do the ol’ Babe Ruth point into the stands, then grand slam one of those sucker’s heads off and wake up in a hot sweat with a boner like one of those toy plastic jumbo bats.
Thanks, Internet!: A Video Of Nine Baby Opossums Munching On Banana

In sweet, wholesome internet news, this is a short video of nine baby opossums chomping on some banana. Man, I love opossums. Raccoons too. People think they’re weird, but that’s because people need to pretend they’re better than eating out of trash cans and playing in the sewers at night for their own ego. Just to be clear though, if you think you’re all high and mighty just because you don’t eat out of trash cans and play in the sewers at night, I’ve got the feeling the bar doesn’t need to be much higher than that for you to trip over.
Finally, A Decent Convertible Car Inflatable Pool Float

Seen here being modeled by a man pretending to change his own gears, this is the Giant Convertible Car Inflatable Pool Float created by Hoovy and available on Amazon. The $100 float is over eight feet long, almost five feet wide, has a suggested weight limit of 300-pounds, and is the perfect raft for cruising a pool wearing your Ray-Ban Wayfarers. Did I mention it has two cup holders? Drinking and driving? Not cool. Drinking and floating? Also not cool, you could drown and that sign clearly says ‘NO LIFEGUARD ON DUTY’. “No, that sign says ‘WELCOME TO OUR OOL. NOTICE HOW THERE’S NO P IN IT? PLEASE KEEP IT THAT WAY!'” *spit-takes White Claw* Oh my God I need that sign except for my ullout bed when I have guests sleep over.
