Blink Mini 2K+, priced at $16.99 today (was $40), measures just two inches on each side and weighs about 65 grams, small enough to rest on a shelf or mount discreetly without drawing attention.

Yesterday Electronic Arts closed BioWare after more than three decades and ended work on the next Mass Effect game, which the company described as still in early development under a small team of roughly fifty people. Hours later a burner account on Reddit posted a two-minute internal trailer that Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier and IGN both confirmed as genuine footage created for the project. The clip opens with a disclaimer that it is in-engine material built from pre-production assets by that limited crew, then ends on a title card reading Mass Effect: Universe.

Few people today even know the Epix Pro existed, yet the chunky gray box from 1996 carried more computing muscle than most early digital cameras ever attempted. Released by a short-lived startup called Epix Imaging Systems, the same unit later appeared under the names Obsidian IC/100 and NEC PC-DC 401 after the company shifted labels a couple of times.

Robert Downey Jr. drove away from the final scene of 2012’s The Avengers in a low, open roadster finished in a deep red close to Iron Man’s armor, wearing a New York plate that read STARK 33. That exact car now sits on Cars & Bids with no reserve, and every dollar of the winning bid goes to a charity chosen with the buyer. American Honda will also cover the platform’s buyer’s fee once the sale closes on October 31.

Fans of the French electronic duo have waited years for something like this.
