Samsung took a hard look at how people actually use big foldable screens and decided the tall, narrow shape everyone had gotten used to was not the full story. The Galaxy Z Fold8, priced at $1,900 with $350 Amazon GC, arrives with a shorter, wider body that feels closer to a passport than a phone book, and that single change unlocks a far better experience for videos, games, and everything in between.
Most people toss old packaging foam in the trash without a second look. Joel from the Lowered Expectations channel decided to turn a pile of it into something that powers a small engine instead. His recent experiment starts with ordinary closed-cell extruded polystyrene, the same light material used for shipping and insulation, and ends with a liquid that lights off in a generator and produces real electricity.
Compact electric pickups rarely make headlines for brute strength. Yet Telo Trucks just raised the bar on its MT1, a vehicle only 152 inches long, by confirming it can safely pull 8,000 pounds. That figure tops the standard Tesla Cybertruck’s 7,500-pound rating and edges past the base 2026 Ford F-150 equipped with the 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine, which sits between 7,400 and 7,600 pounds depending on axle ratio.
Huawei just released the MateBook Pro S, a 14.2-inch laptop that weighs 798 grams and measures only 11.9 millimeters thick. That puts it among the lightest full-metal machines in its size class, lighter than many 13-inch models by a noticeable margin. The magnesium-lithium body keeps the whole package easy to carry all day, and it comes in several finishes including Midsummer Purple, Dawn Yellow, Smoke Gray, Velvet White, and Feather Black.
Soft X-rays from a galaxy about 500 million light-years away triggered an urgent worldwide search in March 2026. The Einstein Probe satellite, built by the Chinese Academy of Sciences with the European Space Agency, recorded a brief pulse of these X-rays and labeled the event EP260321a. Ground telescopes responded within an hour and quickly found a supernova growing brighter by the minute. Researchers later named the explosion SN 2026gzf.
