| Posted: 18 Jun 2021 07:00 AM PDT  I have a confession to make: I am a horrible recycler. Even though my job is to think about and chronicle the fate of our polluted planet, I still often can't be asked to rinse out my plastic containers or find a recycling can on the street when I'm done with my Coke. My even darker confession: With how broken our… |
| How My Robot Vacuum Got Me Through the Pandemic Posted: 18 Jun 2021 06:30 AM PDT  Like many of you, I spent most of the pandemic buying way too much shit. Dumb shit.

| This Weird Air-Filtering Face Mask Picked the Worst Possible Time Posted: 18 Jun 2021 05:00 AM PDT  In the last 16 months, masks have become a part of our daily lives.

| Settlers' New Trailer Harvests Peril on the Martian Frontier Posted: 17 Jun 2021 05:15 PM PDT  As Elton John once cautioned, "Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids," but it appears the characters in Settlers—a new sci-fi film from first-time feature director and writer Wyatt Rockefeller—must've missed that lyric.

| Amazon's Weird Body Fat Scanner Is Still a Problem Posted: 17 Jun 2021 03:30 PM PDT  Amazon would like you to believe that knowing your body fat percentage via its Halo Band fitness tracker's body scan feature will make you a healthier person.

| 10 Things We Liked About The Handmaid's Tale Season 4 (and 6 We Didn't) Posted: 17 Jun 2021 03:00 PM PDT  The Handmaid's Tale season four was much improved. It dismantled the God Complex that June/Offred (Elisabeth Moss) had spent most of season three building around herself, while finally acknowledging how much June's trauma has damaged her. But even if things were better this time around, some of the Hulu series was… |
| Mirrors That Detect Ripples in Space-Time Were Frozen to Near Absolute Zero Posted: 17 Jun 2021 02:45 PM PDT  A team of physicists say they've managed to nearly freeze the motion of atoms across four suspended mirrors.

| Making Mass Effect Recognize My Queerness Was Worth the Wait Posted: 17 Jun 2021 01:20 PM PDT  Coming into Bioware's recent release of its beloved sci-fi saga Mass Effect in Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, I knew that I wanted to re-experience the video games' journey in a way I had tried and failed to as a young teenager: to cast my Commander Shepard as a proud, gay man. Doing so was a reward in and of itself,… |
