A lot of people like to do all kinds of funny things with their animals. Some like to dress them up, others like to film or take pictures of them doing crazy things, and some combine both of these things for the viewing enjoyment of the Internet. Instagram user @moviecats has recently started recreating various scenes from famous movies with the help of their two cats. Check it out!

8 actresses from the Marvel Cinematic Universe; one unique photo. Behold:
In order from left to right: Gamora (Zoe Saldana) from Guardians of the Galaxy, Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson) from Thor: Ragnarok, Captain Marvel (Brie Larson,) Black Widow (Scarlet Johansson) from The Avengers, Okoye (Danai Gurira) from of Black Panther, Nebula (Karen Gillan) from Guardians of the Galaxy, The Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) from Ant-Man, and Mantis (Pom Klementieff) from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2).

From The Domino King:
After 2 months of continuous work here it is, Super Mario Odyssey In Dominoes!
Overall this video consisted of 148,777 dominoes! This is easily one of my personal favorite videos that I’ve done. I originally planned on uploading this video back when the game was released 2 weeks ago but ultimately decided to put more work into it.
A designer has created a bogus smartphone to help addicted users wean themselves off handling devices. But it appears to be more of a conversation-starter than a serious commercial prospect.
The range of five designs take a similar approach to smoking cessation projects of yesteryear which worked on the basis that the physical sensations of handling a cigarette were as much a part of the addict’s routine as the tobacco and nicotine inhalation itself. That led to many ‘devices’ that were effectively just a stick that the user could hold on to rather than risk ‘itchy fingers’ leading to a relapse.
Leonhard Hizensauer’s fake phones are simply black plastic with stone beads arranged in familiar shapes. The idea is that users can handle the phone and even use the beads to simulate scrolling, swiping and pinching-to-zoom. He says it’s a therapeutic approach to the problem of “grabbing your smartphone at the first sign of boredom.”
The phones aren’t on sale right now and instead have only been publicly available at a recent design exhibition in Vienna.

After getting my Vic-20 in 1980, the Commodore 64 was the second computer my parents got me. I was not even ten years old back then, and in my memory, it’s still the best computer I ever owned as a child. It can’t really compare to today’s PCs, but back then, it was also the best gaming platform someone could get.
Earlier this morning, I learned that a small auto repair shop located in Gdansk, Poland is still using a C64 to balance driveshafts, and they’ve been using it for over 25 years! It even survived a flood! According to “Retrokomp / Loaderror,” the story even caused the price of C64s to rise quite a bit on Polish auction sites.
If your car ever stops working while you’re near Gdansk, you might want to attempt to locate this place!
