Engineers at Mazda built a prototype suitcase “car” in 1991 to showcase(!) at auto shows. It never made it to production. That’s a shame, the world might be so much different now if it had. Probably not, but you never know. I’m kidding, I slipped into that alternate reality briefly

Is smaller better? Depends on the context. Tax bill, absolutely. Computers? Maybe. But did that stop Youtuber Dr. Kun Dániel from building a functional Windows XP “gaming PC” inside a walnut shell?

For reference, the average width of a human hair is about 50 microns. Damn, that’s one small violin! Unfortunately it’s not

This is a video that, just like the title describes, imagines various microscope objects on a human scale, beginning with a hydrogen atom resized to 5cm, and making its way through various bacteria and viruses, a city-sized sperm, and a continent sized dust mite. I learned a lot by watching

Because everybody needs a hobby and coffee beans are cheap, this is a timelapse video of artist Valeriano Fatica carving a series of Marvel character faces into coffee beans, including Nick Fury, Iron Man, Thanos, the Hulk, and Groot. He does a great job. Me? I could never work with

This is one of the $1,900 tiny 9.9-millimeter (I lied in the title like a no-good son of a gun) Rubik’s Cubes going on sale in Japan to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the toy being sold in the country. And, I think we can all agree, what a way
