Porsche Design's new laptop is thin, light, and expensive

Love Porsches but can't afford them? Check out the Porsche Design Ultra One i5, a laptop that, at $1350, is a lot more affordable than the famous German cars. It has a 15.6 inch, 1080p touchscreen display, a fingerprint sensor, a magnesium case, and speakers co-designed with Harman/Kardon. The notebook features a special hinge block that puts practically all ports of the device at the back in order to hide cables when they are in use.

The Ultra One definitely wants to stand out. But will it speed past the race to the checkered flag or end up in a devastating crash?


I love the minimalist design. It's thin, lightweight and stylish. Unfortunately, the laptop is powered by an Intel Core i5 8200Y processor, which is designed for low-power computers where energy efficiency is more important than speed. For general purpose computing, the Ultra One is okay. But $1350 is a lot to spend on a notebook with performance that's just 'okay.' With that price I could buy an actual used car.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Details from lucid dreams

If Audrey Stomme s' paintings came alive and transformed into celebrities, they would be Alicia Vikander or Cara Delevingne — confident, perky, and unabashedly luxe. The Minnesota-based artist has a knack for blending ink and acrylic paint in striking combinations to create abstract human forms with an exciting curiosity surging through them. Her pieces brim with courage and exhibit the inherent freedom of her subconscious. Sometimes I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but it still fascinates me.

This jellyfish can age backwards and regenerate body parts

Moon jellies have amazing superpowers. They have the ability to regenerate lost body parts - just like Deadpool, create clones of themselves - just like Multiple Man and, recent research has revealed, they can age backwards - just like Benjamin Button. The discovery was made by Jinru He, a graduate student in marine biology at China's Xiamen University. According to National Geographic , Jinru collected a baby male moon jellyfish from the ocean and raised it to a full grown adult. When it died, he transferred the corpse into a new tank, and noticed a sea anemone-like polyp on the specimen three months later. Scientists believe that the discovery could give us better insight into cancer cures. If you're interested in jellyfish, check out these stunning images taken by Russian marine biologist Alexander Semenov.
