I spent years working on a dual monitor setup and just recently purchased an ultrawide monitor to replace them in my home office. The monitor I bought is an 34” Acer CB342CK (3440x1440) with a 21:9 aspect ratio, and I only use it for “standard” office work (no video editing, photoshop, gaming, etc.) so some of the more expensive options weren’t necessary. I managed to buy it certified refurbished for $280, which seemed very reasonable given the cost of other similar options. The main factors...

The event starts by sending a 7-9 pound roll of cheese down the hill. After the cheese has a one second head start, competitors chase the cheese. The first person to catch the cheese, or...

Reaching speeds of over 2400mph (Mach 3.2), the SR-71 “Blackbird” has cemented itself in history as the fastest plane in the world. It was so purpose built that the plane actually leaked fluid when it wasn’t flying, as the connections and hoses were designed to perform in high heat/high stress applications where they would expand and seal. The USAF could reportedly only fly each plane once per week since maintenance and repairs after each flight were so extensive. Even with these...

Being an astronaut is enough to make most men jealous in itself, but Jonathan “Jonny” Kim has an even longer list of accolades that would make any man feel inadequate.

Bitcoin has recently surged to record highs, reaching values of over $40,000 USD per coin earlier in January. Unfortunately for Stefan Thomas, a programmer based in San Francisco, these price jumps have caused nothing but suffering. Thomas owns an IronKey hard drive with 7,002 bitcoin, or ~$280,000,000 at a price of $40,000 per bitcoin. IronKey allows owners 10 chances to enter the correct password before permanently locking down and encrypting the contents. For Thomas, this would mean...

On the morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded.

At least 5 percent of the radioactive material from the core was pushed out into the atmosphere, distributing radiation for hundreds of miles and endangering the lives of thousands of people. The initial fires were extinguished within a few hours and nearby cities were...
