In other, somehow less stupid Dodge Challenger news (when it rains it pours), this is a video of Youtuber WhistlinDiesel adding horse & buggy wheels to his Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat to see how they perform. They actually work remarkably better than I anticipated, although you still won’t see me

Remember payphones? Feels like a hundred years ago, doesn’t it? Well it was, it was actually a hundred years ago when AT&T tore the last payphone off an outside wall at a 7-11, its phonebook stolen long before by hoodlums who burnt it in an alleyway. My God we’re old.

This is some breathtaking footage from various locales around the world as filmed in the 1890’s and recently restored and colorized via artificial intelligence. It really is something to see. Timestamps for all the locations visited in the film so you can skip around and pretend you’re a jet-setting time

Have you ever wondered what the dial-up modem handshake sound LOOKS like? Just how high were you? Edibles? Maybe next time wait an hour before eating the rest. This is the dial-up modem sound presented in spectrogram form. Sure brings back memories, doesn’t it? MOM! MOM HANG UP THE PHONE.

This is a video of what Marvin Gaye’s rendition of ‘I Heard It Through The Grapevine’ sounds like with his vocals isolated. SPOILER: Amazing. Man….what a voice. For reference, my voice kinda sounds like– “A cross between a garbage disposal full of gravel and a fart in an airport bathroom.”

This is Bataille de boules de neige (Snowball Fight) by Louis Lumière, a short silent film shot in Lyon, France in 1896 that’s been upscaled and colorized using DeOldify, an open-source AI tool that does just that. The result is impressive. Also, I really liked the plot: everybody nail the
