Description

Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi start this week's episode off with some deep space news, as NASA's OSIRIS-REx returns home with a sample it snapped up from asteroid Bennu back in 2020. From there, discussion moves on to magical part sorting, open source (eventually...) plastic recycling, and the preposterously complex method newer Apple laptops use to determine if their lid is closed. They'll also talk about the changing perceptions of 3D printed parts, a new battery tech that probably won't change the world, and a clock that can make it seem like your nights are getting longer and longer. Stick around until the end to hear about the glory days of children's architecture books, and the origins of the humble microwave oven. Check out the links over on Hackaday if you want to follow along, and as always, tell us what you think about this episode in the comments!
