| Some of the Best Easter Eggs Hidden in Sites Across The Web Posted: 05 Jun 2021 06:30 AM PDT  Typically when we talk about things that are "hidden" in websites, we're referring to something malicious—data-hoovering cookies, for example, or massive amounts of malware. But not every website dev is trying to con visitors out of their personal info or utterly wreck their devices; some of them just want to say… |
| The American Museum of Natural History’s Gems and Minerals Halls Get a Dazzling Upgrade Posted: 05 Jun 2021 06:00 AM PDT  If you love things that sparkle with all the colors of the rainbow, glow in the dark, and seem to defy any definition of the term rock, you've got to visit the new Halls of Gems and Minerals at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.

| AMC's CEO Apparently Didn't Bother to Put on Pants for This YouTube Interview Posted: 04 Jun 2021 05:17 PM PDT AMC is the latest meme stock darling for hordes of online investors, and CEO Adam Aron has been leaning heavily into the company's newfound virality. However, I doubt he ever expected to become a meme himself, as was the case this week after he appeared to be pantless during a live interview with a YouTuber. |

| Posted: 04 Jun 2021 03:20 PM PDT  A ferocious bidding war over a misshapen chicken nugget concluded at $99,997 in the wee hours of Friday morning. Doesn't seem weird at all, in a world where people are spending millions of dollars for blockchain tokens backed only by words. But wait, is this a sign of a healthy economy, us walking around like the… |
| N.K. Jemisin's Hugo-Winning Broken Earth Trilogy Is Coming to the Big Screen Posted: 04 Jun 2021 03:15 PM PDT  N.K.

Reports on Friday, citing people familiar with the inquiry,… |
| Infinite's New Trailer Forgoes Plot for a Ludicrous Amount of Action Posted: 04 Jun 2021 02:00 PM PDT The first trailer for Mark Wahlberg's upcoming sorta-sci-fi movie Infinite dropped a mere week ago, explaining how a select group of constantly reincarnating people keep their memories and fight each other. This new trailer drops all that to present the movie as a Fast and the Furious clone built on the bones of… |

| Ball in God's Court as Utah Governor Declares 'Weekend of Prayer' for Rain Posted: 04 Jun 2021 01:41 PM PDT  The West is in drought. You might even call it Biblical given that a drought this fierce hasn't hit the region in at least 1,200 years. |

Unsurprisingly, the extravagant mutant gathering is already threatening to upend the delicate balance of power keeping humanity from going to war with Krakoa. Let… |
| NASA Has Spotted Sneaky Methane Emissions From the Biggest Oilfield in America Posted: 04 Jun 2021 12:52 PM PDT  There's no such thing as easy climate fixes, but when it comes to methane emissions from oil and gas production, a couple of little patches could go a long way. A new study suggests that just 123 sites in the Permian Basin in Texas could be responsible for a huge chunk of the region's accidental methane leaks—and that… |

| Boston Dynamics’ Robotic Dog Can Now Play the Saddest Futuristic Game of Fetch Posted: 04 Jun 2021 12:00 PM PDT Boston Dynamics promises its impressive Spot robot can do a lot of things, but as we can see in the company's latest demo, replacing the family pet isn't one of them. Even with incredible autonomy, advanced sensors, and an articulated arm instead of a head and neck, Spot manages to make a fun interaction like a … |
| Sweet Tooth’s Showrunners on the Heart of the Show and Changes From the Comic Posted: 04 Jun 2021 11:15 AM PDT  If you were just to list all the elements that make up the new Netflix show Sweet Tooth, you'd think it was just a bunch of random ideas thrown together. In fact, let's test that theory: deer boy. Robert Downey Jr. Post-apocalypse. Animal army. DC Comics. Football star. Lord of the Rings. VR gaming. Weird, right? But… |

| Star Wars: The Bad Batch Is Playing Catch Up With the Forgotten Corners of the Galaxy Posted: 04 Jun 2021 10:15 AM PDT  After its explosive opening, Star Wars: The Bad Batch has hit a bit of a weird, interesting, and yet kind of frustrating rut.
