It is impossible to overstate just how big an impact Star Trek: The Next Generation had on an entire generation of kids growing up in the 1990s. I watched every episode with my mom. When I walked into my friend’s house after school, a gigantic cardboard cutout of virile, bald Captain Jean-Luc Picard greeted us…
Zoë Schiffer: I think also it’s a good moment to bring in the IP angle. You might be asking yourself, why did ClawdBot change its very cute name to MoltBot? And that’s a great question.

“I think there’s been a large misconception in the Republican Party, thinking that the constituents don’t really care about these issues,” Kelly Ryerson, one of the organizers of the petition, told Grist. “A key part” of the MAHA agenda, Ryerson continued, “is removing corporate interests from our regulators.” “If anything, the EPA is significantly worse…
The best folding treadmills offer many of the same features as pricier nonfolding machines. That includes heart rate programs, where you choose a target heart rate zone and the treadmill adjusts its speed and/or incline to automatically let you reach that goal; heart rate monitoring, either via grips or a chest strap (the latter is…
Toy companies are not required by law to list their ingredients or material makeup on the toys’ packaging, but some companies do. The Nee-Doh packages and the Schylling website say that the gel inside the Nice Cube is “Maltose” or “100% Malt Extract” (a type of sugar made from barley) and the Nee-Doh Groovy Glob…
