𤯠Not tech, but super interesting: Researchers found 22,000-year-old vehicle tracks at White Sands National Park. Yes, you read that right, 22,000 years ago. They believe itâs from a travois â a sled made with long sticks and a basket. Thatâs huge, since we thought transport tools only dated back to 4,000 BC.

I donât know about you, but when Friday hits, the last thing I want to do is scroll for an hour trying to find something to watch. Usually, I give up and rewatch The Office for the 10th time.
Not this weekend. I made you a watch list, meticulously crafted between dopamine crashes, for the entertainment-decision-deficient among us. Youâre welcome.
Wyomingâs Game and Fish Department built a fake bear on a remote-controlled platform that charges at you going 35 mph. Truly the Teslabear nobody wanted. The test? See if you can whip out bear spray in time. Spoiler alert: Most people would be toast. Your best bet is to keep that spray holstered, and never in your backpack.
đ You made it to Friday. Itâs time to unwind and pamper yourself.

Thatâs how much of his fortune Bill Gates plans to leave each of his kids. But donât start a GoFundMe just yet. Heâs worth $102.2 billion, so theyâll still walk away with over $1 billion each. Imagine hearing âyou only get a billionâ and feeling robbed.
How much longer queen bees live compared to worker bees. One big reason? Their diet. Queen bees eat royal jelly, which is packed with nutrients, lower in sugar and comes with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory perks. Long live the queen, literally and nutritionally.
How much longer a day on Uranus just got. Scientists studied a decade of data from the Hubble Space Telescope to more accurately measure the planetâs rotation. Turns out it now takes 17 hours, 14 minutes and 52 seconds for one full spin. Hey, why donât scientists trust Uranus? Because itâs always up to something cheeky. Come on, that was funny.
Of employees have been backstabbed at work. The main culprits? Gen Z and millennials, who are twice as likely to throw someone under the bus to climb the ladder. One in four workers say their boss has set them up to fail. Coworkers by day, betrayal speedrunners by lunch.
Thatâs the success rate for robot-assisted surgeries. Doctors often use 3D glasses and chopstick-like hand tools, which the robot mimics using tiny instruments. The tech filters out hand tremors and makes less invasive cuts, meaning patients heal faster with fewer complications. Pretty amazing. If R2-D2 tells me to count backward, Iâm trusting the process.
Your workweek in 10 years. Bill Gates thinks thatâll happen thanks to AI (paywall link). It may sound lazy, but weâll be getting even more done. Cities like Tokyo are already testing a four-day workweek to boost birth rates. Next time you feel burned out, just picture those five-day weekends ahead.
How much youâre going to pay for a discontinued Trader Joeâs mini tote bag on eBay. The âHoney, I Shrunk the Tote Bagâ version of its classic canvas tote was $3 in-store. Today, youâd need a small personal loan and a dream.
