Clyde Shaffer spent years working on a console that would let people create and play entirely new 8-bit games on real cartridges. He started from the premise that most modern retro devices either replay old titles or rely on programmable chips that hide how the hardware actually works. GameTank takes a different route by using only common, still-available logic chips and two real 6502-family processors.
Joby Aviation and Toyota Motor Corporation announced today that they will create a joint venture to prepare for larger-scale production of electric air taxis. The move formalizes and expands a relationship that has existed quietly for nearly a decade.
Summer heat often leaves people weighing comfort against the steady climb in electricity bills. Running central air or room units for hours on end keeps everyone comfortable but spreads cooling across empty spaces and unused rooms. A more focused option directs relief straight to the person who needs it. The TORRAS COOLiFY Air 2026, priced at $99.73 (was $116.99), takes that idea and turns it into a device you simply wear.
Polymatt grew tired of watching memory prices climb. Instead of buying another expensive chip, he reached back to the 1960s and built storage the way engineers once did. Tiny ferrite rings now sit inside a compact case. Each ring stores one bit by holding a magnetic field in one direction or the other. Sixty-four rings together hold eight characters of text. Remove all power and the information stays exactly where it is.
BMW Group has moved its work with Figure AI past the testing stage and into regular factory shifts. At Plant Spartanburg in South Carolina, the Figure 03 humanoid robot now handles a daily logistics job inside assembly hall 52. The robot takes components that arrive in large, mixed containers and places them into the right spots on a sequencing trolley. That trolley then travels by automated tugger train or smart transport robot to the exact station where assembly teams need those parts next, delivered in the correct order.
