| A Polychromatic Cybertruck Could Be Available Soon Posted: 27 Jul 2020 11:02 PM PDT
The excitement for Tesla's Cybertruck has once again reignited as Tesla CEO Elon Musk confirmed that the color of the truck's surface could be changed using heated colors. This alternative uses different temperatures to affect the metal's chemical coloring, creating a spectrum of color possibilities from yellow to red and blue. It is still unclear from Musk's tweets whether the color modifications would be an aftermarket job or whether tesla could offer it themselves. We hope to hear more as the Cybertruck edges closer to production – currently slated to hit the market in late 2021. Man, that would be so cool to see on the road! What are your thoughts about this one? (Image Credit: Twitter)  |

Nueva Ecija, Philippines — Richmond Perez, along with his girlfriend, Sandra, had been waiting to spot the comet in the night sky for five days. Eventually, the sky cleared out, and they were able to see the comet. And… As Comet NEOWISE shot across the night sky, Richmond Perez went down on one knee and asked to marry his girlfriend Sandra, and she said yes — for the second time. When they were taking photos of the comet, Sandra was surprised when her fiance proposed anew during the once in a lifetime opportunity. "Finally Lord allows us to see this once in a lifetime event. Thank you Lord for these two wonderful creation in front of my eyes," Richmond said. Now that's a proposal unlike any other. (Image Credit: Richmond Perez/ GMA News) |
| The Type of Person Who Does Not Learn From His Mistakes Posted: 27 Jul 2020 07:33 PM PDT
This person believes that he is better than others, he doesn't take advice from other people, and he doesn't trust them, too. Aside from that, he also believes that he doesn't make any mistakes, and so he doesn't learn from these said mistakes. These traits are true for a narcissistic person. In refusing to acknowledge that they have made a mistake, narcissists fail to learn from those mistakes, a recent study from Oregon State University – Cascades found. The mental process of analyzing past actions to see what one should have done differently is called "should counterfactual thinking." Counterfactual thinking is the mental process of imagining a different outcome or scenario from what actually occurred. All of us engage in some level of self-protective thinking, said study author Satoris Howes, a researcher at OSU-Cascades with the OSU College of Business. We tend to attribute success to our own efforts, but blame our failures on outside forces — while often blaming other people's failure on their own deficiencies. "But narcissists do this way more because they think they're better than others," Howes said. Learn more about narcissists, and how to handle them in the workplace, over at Neuroscience News.

| Man Goes into Mysterious Water Tunnel in Rock Posted: 27 Jul 2020 07:26 PM PDT
I feel like gasping for air just watching this terrifying video of a fool going into a water siphon just above a waterfall. Julie Motoki asks us if we would try this fun ride. That will be a no from me. I plan to die in bed at the age of one hundred. -via Born in Space |
| Fire Pits Inspired by Pop Culture Posted: 27 Jul 2020 07:26 PM PDT Ah, the classic Hippie Wagon. You see, kids, back in the 70s, you could find these things everywhere on the road. The Volkswagen Type 2 microbus was a classic. It lives on now as a fire pit by craftsman Danny Lyons, who owns a shop called Trash Metal Fabrications. He makes many fire pits that look like Daleks, minions, Sauron, and more. -via My Modern Met |
| Yellowstone's Wolves, 25 Years Later Posted: 27 Jul 2020 11:40 AM PDT
The National Park Service was created in 1916, and one of the first things they did was kill off the wolves that lived in Yellowstone National Park. After all, they preyed on other wildlife in the park, and more importantly, were a danger to visitors and nearby livestock. The wolves were wiped out by 1926, and the elk population exploded. Wolves were re-introduced into Yellowstone in 1995, amid much controversy. So how's that turned out all these years later?
In fact, the wolves ate way more elk than scientists had initially predicted. Read about the wolf re-introduction experiment at Earther. |
| Engineering Students Invent Device to Precisely Test the Ripeness of Avocados Posted: 27 Jul 2020 11:40 AM PDT
Do you thump or squeeze avocados in the grocery store to test their freshness? Students at Harvard University have developed a more precise method that examines the fruit chemically. The Harvard Gazette reports: The device they developed incorporates sensors to measure certain chemical properties of an avocado. Information from these sensors is incorporated into a machine-learning model the students developed to predict when an avocado will be ripe. The model's output is displayed through an app that shows the estimated date of ripeness and the number of days until each tested avocado will be ripe for. -via Marginal Revolution | Photo: SEAS Communications |
