A gas station pump computer sits quietly hidden away in a metal cabinet, processing transactions day after day, as most cars go right by without a second thought. Dave from Usagi Electric discovered one of these often-forgotten machines at a swap market and transformed it into a crazy adventure of reverse engineering.

Jay Leno begins the latest episode of his Jay Leno’s Garage series by going hands-on with a new electric truck called Slate, which has the potential to make going electric a viable option for a quarter of the cost of today’s new automobiles.

Cornell researchers developed a method for printing concrete structures in the middle of the ocean, a development that has the potential to transform maritime construction. They’ve been printing homes, bridges, and even rocket parts on dry land with concrete for years, but taking the process underwater has its own set of challenges. Water damages the cement particles before they can bond together, makes the slurry too thick to pump when stabilizers are added too early, and creates a cloud of fine sediment that blinds all light.
A small stealthy device lies in the hand, like something out of a dusty sci-fi prop box, with a compact screen, a grid of keys, and an antenna protruding from the top.

What began as a conference badge for the WHY2025 event has evolved into something far more capable: a portable Linux system suitable for on-the-go work, security testing, experimentation, and simply playing around.
