Bigme built the HiBreak Dual 2 around a simple mechanical solution to a familiar problem. Regular smartphones deliver color, speed, and apps but wear out eyes during long reading sessions. Dedicated e-readers protect vision and sip power yet lack cameras, video, and quick multitasking. This device carries both screen types in one slab so owners turn it over instead of juggling separate gadgets.
Bluetooth speakers in the $100 to $200 range often promise big performance from small packages. Many deliver on volume or bass at first listen, only to reveal thin sound, weak build quality, or quick battery drain once real life enters the picture. The Bose SoundLink Flex 2nd Gen, priced at $99.99 (was $159), stands apart by focusing on the things that actually matter day after day.
Boston Dynamics has released a new video from its offices that shows three humanoid robots executing a Viking Row in rhythm. The video shows the robots in a wide open workplace with plenty of natural light coming in through the tall windows and many Boston Dynamics employees scattered about, joining in on the row from the floor and other nearby spots.
Curiosity had been working its way down the Gediz Vallis channel on the flank of Mount Sharp for months. The rover’s wheels left fresh tracks in the loose soil and scattered stones as it hunted for clues about the planet’s ancient past. On May 30, 2024, during the 4,200th Martian day of the mission, one of those wheels rolled over a rock that looked no different from thousands of others nearby. The one-ton machine pressed down, and the stone gave way with a quiet crack that no one on Earth witnessed in real time.
Houston drivers caught an unusual sight not long ago when a long, dramatic shape from movie history appeared in regular traffic. The car stretched 20 to 22 feet, rode on a fiberglass body, and carried the unmistakable profile of the Batmobile from the 1989 Tim Burton film. What set this version apart was the fact that it actually drives on public roads, complete with lights, signals, and enough power to move its reported 19,000-pound mass.
