Because some people refuse to go to sleep at night without having their nagging questions answered (do storks bring the babies or not?!), this is is a video of Youtuber Cal Pal testing which basic 3D shapes are the most aerodynamic using physics vehicle simulator BeamNG.drive. He tops ten go-karts

These are several videos of the work of João Paulo Gonçalves, who uses carefully placed wooden blocks illuminated by a mirrored bulb in the center to produce precisely shaped shadows. How about that! Me and my shadow? We’re not talking. We got into a huge fight after he said he’s

Constructed by HackADay user mircemk using as many 3D printed parts as possible, this self-balancing cube uses an Arduino Nano microcontroller and MPU6050 gyroscope / accelerometer to control 3 motor-driven reaction wheels to keep itself balanced — even standing on one corner on a slope! Me? I can’t stand on

This is a video captured by wildlife artist Robert E Fuller of a winter murmuration of starlings at dusk at the Ripon City Wetlands in Yorkshire, England (love your pudding!). Per Robert: “Starling murmurations are one of Britain’s greatest wildlife spectacles. Studies suggest the birds congregate in great swirling masses

This is a video of Youtuber Inheritance Machining creating a Mobius cube — a cube that, like it’s Mobius strip cousin, only has a single side. My brain hurts just thinking about it. I remember the first time I saw M.C. Esher’s Mobius Strip II (with the red ants) I

This is a video of object manipulator and prop designer SHAO performing a routine using a morphing cube prop developed by fellow prop designer Thomas Foyk. It was pretty fun to watch. How about all those faces he has though?! I’ve heard of people being two-faced, but four? That’s a

In other wiener related news (is it going to be one of those days?! Only time will tell. We can all hope though), this is a video of a phallic cloud spotted while driving. There’s no doubt about it, that’s a cumulus wiener. I included screencaps with both the Steak

According to this NES Tetris game manual that Twitter user vecchitto dug up, these are the names of the various Tetris blocks. And here I’ve been calling them L and backwards L blocks, when they’re actually Blue and Orange Rickys! I should have known. Hero and Smashboy are definitely the
