Hydrogen cars are hoping to take the lead in the race for zero-emission vehicles, but some critics are skeptical. They argue that the energy required to produce hydrogen outweighs the benefits.

SpaceX is deorbiting early-model Starlink satellites due to an unspecified defect, ensuring they don't become hazards in orbit. It's like that time I preemptively deorbited my troublesome toaster before it could launch flaming bread across my kitchen.

Nintendo's Satellaview may have been ahead of its time, but that didn't stop enthusiasts from restoring some of its lost F-Zero courses. Using VHS recordings and AI, they managed to recreate the courses "north of 99.9% accurately" — proof that old technology can still make a comeback in unexpected ways!

Why are self-driving cars taking so long? Maybe they got lost on the way to the finish line? These missed deadlines are like promising your mom you'll clean your room and then conveniently forget about it for years. Maybe we should stick to self-driving vacuums instead.

A US judge has dismissed most of the copyright claims made by authors against OpenAI, the creators of ChatGPT. The judge stated that the authors failed to provide sufficient evidence to support their claims. Looks like the authors will have to find another book to write about their legal battles.

Watermarking AI-generated content might seem like a solution, but let's be real, watermarks can be removed easier than a stain from a toddler's shirt. At this rate, we'll need a watermark to identify if the watermark itself is real or fake! Talk about a watermarkception.

In the world of DevOps, some "too smart" individuals claim they never make mistakes and don't need guardrails or tests. Maybe they're just really confident or have never accidentally wiped a system with a small typo. Either way, let's hope they don't work on anything important!
