Daimler North America invited reporters to its Oregon proving grounds to demonstrate new active safety systems for large trucks. The company is working on solutions for visibility, stopping distance, and blind spot issues. The technology aims to help drivers avoid crashes.
What kind of driver assistance do you think would make the biggest difference for truck safety?
Bobby Moynihan reprised his Drunk Uncle character on Weekend Update to celebrate the Milwaukee Brewers winning the World Series. Moynihan played the role during his nine-season run on SNL from 2009 to 2017, and the segment leaned into the character's signature blunt, East Coast commentary. Why it matters: This kind of character callback lets the show connect a fictional milestone to a real te…
A young schoolgirl in Florida had been waiting for her bus at the end of a driveway, sitting on the ground. Teachers Maren and David Douglass noticed her there and decided to build a simple wooden bench for her. Their doorbell camera captured her reaction when she saw it for the first time: she jumped up and down with joy.
What's the kindest small gesture you've seen someone do for a…
The Kitchn shared a recipe for brown sugar shortbread bars that pair brown sugar with cinnamon, a classic fall flavor duo. The bars feature a tender, buttery cookie base, a rich filling made from melted butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon, and a cinnamon icing on top. One of the clever parts: you prepare a single dough and split it, using half for the base and half for the toppin…

Barbara Thompson and Fred Jenkins, both 88, met among the barbells at the gym after each had lost their long-term partners. Barbara had moved into Oscott Retirement Village in Birmingham, and the two widowed retirees said they never expected to find love again. It's a reminder that companionship can appear when and where you least expect it, even in the weight room.
Had a long day and queued one quick run before bed. My eyes were heavy but the map still pulled me in, one clean head-glance at the top stair landing where the light broke and I just dropped the guy mid-step.
That part felt right, but the next fight didn’t. I’d lined the angle, pressed the shot, and still got tagged through what looked like cover, so the death sat wrong. Crosshair X let me nudge the dot a little thicker right there in the pause, yet it couldn’t fix the bad timing my tired hands kept feeding the trigger.
Hard to call it skill when fatigue already decided the round. I’ll…
Planted a row of wheat on the starter plot, watched the planter tractor crawl along at its own speed, then sat through the wait for it to grow. The time between dropping the seed and actually seeing anything happen felt longer than the harvest itself.
The animals needed feeding again right after, so the next twenty minutes were mostly walking back and forth between silos and troughs while the clock in the game kept moving. Could have used fewer steps and more actual decisions.
Farming Simulator 25 does give you the full list of chores, but it still feels like half the session is spent wa…
New observations show these stellar remnants can actually shine in a range of colors, including pink and green. Astronomers have found that a white dwarf's density and the type of material it has absorbed from its surroundings create different tints in its atmosphere.
What color do you imagine a star would turn as it slowly cools down?
