This is a video documenting Youtuber HeroTech’s effort to build a realistic lightsaber replica capable of extending and retracting with the push of a button (pervious iteration HERE), and fitting everything inside a Graflex 1:1 scale hilt.

Now that’s an orchestra performance I would pay to see! Normally I just sneak inside the

This is a video from appropriately named Youtuber Picard Looking imagining Star Trek’s Captain Picard and crew attempting to hold an agenda-less (my favorite 🙄) Zoom meeting from their own quarters. Despite the dysfunction, that was still 95% more productive than 100% of the Zoom meetings I’ve attended recently, which,
