The Futurist is your daily tech, cosmic, and science (both weird or otherwise) newsletter with articles and content curated just for you. // Computer brains // Hibernation // COVID fatigue // EV design | | "The light bar, for those uninitiated to our new era of EV design language, is the modern take on traditional headlights or taillights. Instead of the more pedestrian dual-light setup — a pair of bug eyes fixed on the front or back of your car — the light bar is, well, a bar. If you've been paying attention to almost any modern EV you've almost certainly seen the light bar's aesthetic impact in action." | Nothing — and we mean nothing — compares to the feeling of finally getting the kind of sleep your body needs. That feeling after an intense 60-hour (or more) work week, complete with five days straight of walking on a treadmill desk, doing boxing classes, and raising three kids, when you get to the mattress and pass out for eight straight hours. However, your mattress is old and needs an upgrade, doesn't it? Get the sleep you truly deserve, plus save $600 on the best mattress around for Memorial Day.

If this is true, it means that actual humans could be getting a device from Neuralink implanted in their heads. The news follows Elon Musk's November claim that Neuralink was about six months away from its first human trial — which suggests it's the rare Musk promise that's actually coming true on time." | Interested in having one of your social posts featured in The Futurist? | | Approx. how much does the sky weigh? | Because yes, it weighs something. | | | | |
