Unveiling the Hidden Dance of a Chainsaw Blade at 20,000FPS

By Jackson Chung January 9, 2026

Chainsaws rip through forests and backyards alike, reducing thick logs to manageable bits with brute force, but few people consider the little dance that occurs when the chain strikes wood. A mind-blowing film taken at 20,000 frames per second slows down this crazy process, exposing details that would otherwise be imperceptible to the naked eye. The team behind The Chainsaw Manual caught this using a high-speed camera, revealing the delicate ballet of tiny parts working in perfect harmony to make wood cutting so efficient.

Forget Pokemon and Other TCGs, Pocket Ink AI Cards Boast Flexible E-Ink Displays

By Jackson Chung January 8, 2026

Researchers at MIT’s Media Lab are developing a new deck of AI-enhanced playing cards featuring electronic ink displays, called Pocket Ink. At a player’s request, each card can suddenly change to display a new image. A companion box acts as the brain, handling the changes and connecting to outside services. When you place a card in the box, it acts as a small reset; pull it out and you’re ready for the next hand.

By Bill Smith January 8, 2026

In 1976, Hollywood attempted to mock the plethora of disaster films that were filling theaters at the time. Paramount Pictures stepped up with The Big Bus, a comedy about a comically enormous bus attempting to go from New York to Denver nonstop. Cyclops, the bus, was there in the middle of the mayhem, a genuine article capable of driving on real roads.

Grecell’s Compact Power Station Proves You Don’t Need a Tent to Appreciate Reliable Backup Energy

By Bill Smith January 8, 2026

Portable power stations were once marketed primarily to outdoor enthusiasts, but Grecell’s 240W model, priced at $59.99 for Prime members (was $109.99), has reversed that trend. Weighing in at roughly four pounds, the little battery has a good 154 watt-hour capacity, which is a lot of power for its size. But forget about the great outdoors for a while; anyone living in a city apartment or simply working out of the house in a coffee shop, coping with regular power outages, or always on the move would find a lot of value here.

Researchers Encounter Rare Giant Phantom Jellyfish Off Argentina’s Coast

By Jackson Chung January 8, 2026

During a recent expedition, Schmidt Ocean Institute researchers captured fantastic footage of a rare giant phantom jellyfish. But they had to put in the time: the remote-controlled vehicle, which was exploring the Colorado-Rawson submarine canyon off the coast of Argentina, didn’t detect the species until it was 830 feet down. Even so, it was only because the ROV illuminated its translucent bell as it slowly drifted down into the depths.

By Bill Smith January 8, 2026

KEYi Tech introduced its Loona Deskmate to the world, or at least to those who were lucky enough to attend CES 2026 in Las Vegas. Here’s the thing: the minds behind Deskmate were rather transparent in their ideas. It went something like this: you already have a mobile computer in your pocket. Why step it up a level and construct a full-on robot when that same iPhone can power the screen, camera, microphone, speakers, and all the rest?
