Apple’s new foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, has a selfie camera hidden underneath its inner display. When the camera isn’t active, there is no visible cutout, hole, or notch on the screen.

The feature drew a strong reaction online, with one Japanese tech commentator posting a video capturing the exact moment the camera vanishes, calling the effect surprisingly moving despite knowing it’s a trick of engineering. Outlets covering hands-on time with the device confirmed the same effect, describing it as one of the more striking details from Apple’s September 9 unveiling.

Samsung tried a similar under-display camera on earlier Galaxy Fold models before dropping it in 2025 for image quality reasons.

Would a hidden camera like this change how you use a foldable phone.

Elon Musk says Tesla plans to start public sales of its Optimus robot by the end of 2027. He made the announcement at the World Economic Forum, tying the timeline to reliability and safety thresholds Tesla has not yet hit.

Tesla is already installing a production line for Optimus at its Fremont, California factory, on the same floor space once used for the Model S and Model X. The line’s target capacity is 1 million robots a year, though no units have shipped to any customer yet.

The pitch is a robot that helps around the house, for years at a time. What that means for people who grow attached to one is still an open question.

Would a robot like this fit into your home.

AsFoundX posted that Tesla plans to reveal the long-awaited Roadster in three days on October 15, assuming no further delays. The October 1 event was postponed due to severe weather as the outdoor demonstration with SpaceX thrusters can only be held outside.

The car was first shown in 2017 with original delivery promises for 2020 that have slipped repeatedly. Price, final specs, and production timeline remain unknown ahead of the event. The post includes a video highlighting the anticipation around the reveal.

Replies show a mix of excitement for the potential hover demo and skepticism given the nine years of delays.

Would you attend the Roadster reveal if invited?

DragTimes posted handheld night footage captioned “Shot on iPhone 18 pro 😂 Tesla Roadster can fly.” The clip shows the white Roadster accelerating on the test pad before rear cold-gas thrusters activate, producing visible exhaust plumes as the car lifts off, rotates, and briefly flies above the ground and vehicles.

This follows the prior day’s live demo where the Roadster hit 0-60 mph in 0.81 seconds using the same SpaceX-developed thrusters powered by rechargeable compressed air tanks. Three variants were shown for 2028 production, with advanced thruster models not approved for public roads. The post highlights the aerial capability in a humorous way.

The video was filmed in controlled test conditions rather than normal driving. It quickly gained traction with replies comparing it to video game physics.

Sawyer Merritt posted footage from inside the redesigned Tesla Roadster during the company’s live event. The clip shows the driver’s seating position and the on-screen interface that controls vehicle functions. He described the layout as unlike any other Tesla model and specific to this car.

The post followed Tesla’s demonstration of the Roadster using rear cold-gas thrusters developed with SpaceX. Those thrusters enabled a live 0-60 mph run of 0.81 seconds and short aerial maneuvers on a prepared pad. Production of the vehicle is targeted for 2028 across multiple versions, with higher thruster packages limited in availability.

The interior view adds detail on how the car is operated beyond the external performance clips. No production pricing or full specifications were included in the post.

Does the screen layout change how the thruster features would be used day to day?

Tesla demonstrated the redesigned Roadster at a live event by accelerating it from a standstill to 60 mph in 0.81 seconds. The run used four rear-mounted cold-gas thrusters developed with SpaceX that release compressed air stored in onboard tanks.

The vehicle also performed short aerial maneuvers and flips during the same session. Tesla listed three versions: a road-ready model without thrusters, a race-oriented version with rear thrusters, and an invite-only model with additional thrusters around the body. Production is scheduled for 2028.

The top variants are not approved for public roads. The demonstration focused on controlled test conditions at the facility.

Would the thruster option change how people view everyday electric cars?

Josephflaherty shows a person using custom-built flight stick controllers with exposed wiring, 3D printed parts, and electronics to play a high-action spaceship combat game on dual monitors. The caption predicts that vibe coding, DIY hardware, and 3D printing will spark a revival in arcade-style gaming.

The account followed up by directing viewers to LinsLabs.net, which offers 3D printable kits for gadgets, toys, and custom rigs. This ties into growing trends of AI-assisted “vibe coding” for rapid game prototyping and accessible maker tools for physical controllers.

The video highlights hands-on play with mechanical ships firing energy beams in a desert arena environment.

Would you build your own custom arcade controller?

Elon Musk explaining that Starship’s fuel is 78% oxygen and 22% methane, with the methane easy to produce on Mars. With a propellant depot there, Starship becomes a reusable transport for the asteroid belt, Jupiter’s moons, Saturn, and beyond.

Musk noted full propulsive landing with no parachutes or disposable parts, plus a heat shield for Earth or Mars entry. The post also quoted an older Bezos clip on the Moon as a stepping stone due to its low gravity well for lifting materials like liquid oxygen.

These remarks highlight SpaceX’s in-situ resource utilization strategy for making long-duration solar system travel feasible.

How far do you think Starship could eventually reach with Mars as a refueling base?

Footage shows a four-legged robot moving across the grass at an Atlanta apartment complex at night while a voice with an Indian accent speaks through its speakers. The robot identifies itself as OPM Super General and continues talking to people nearby.

The units belong to Undaunted Robotic Security, an Atlanta startup that has placed the robots at multiple properties around the city. Human operators watch through the cameras and talk through the two-way audio system instead of the robots acting on their own. The company has said the service costs less than hiring traditional overnight guards.

Local reports from earlier in 2026 describe the same robots helping track car break-in suspects until police arrived and scaring off a trespasser at another complex. Some operators have been located overseas in past coverage.

Would you want a robot dog on night patrol where you live?

Reflex Robotics posted video of its semi-humanoid robot clearing snow with a standard shovel during a major New York blizzard. The machine has a wheeled base, an adjustable mast, and two arms. It was built mainly for warehouse work such as picking items and packing boxes.

The company adapted the same arms to hold and swing a shovel on the sidewalk outside its office. Reports noted the robot moved snow in short passes while snow continued to fall. Unit pricing has been reported near $50,000. Whether the robot ran fully on its own or under remote control was not confirmed.

Would a warehouse robot that can also handle outdoor chores change staffing plans at your site?

AMD CEO Lisa Su held up a compact device on stage and called it the smallest AI development system in the world. The Ryzen AI Halo uses the Ryzen AI Max+ 395 chip with 128GB of unified memory shared across the CPU, GPU, and NPU. That pool lets the machine run models with up to 200 billion parameters without a data center or cloud connection.

The platform ships with Windows or Linux and full ROCm support. AMD priced the 128GB version at $3,999 when pre-orders opened months later. Developers can load tools like LM Studio and start local inference minutes after power-on.

Would a $4,000 desktop that keeps large models on your machine change how you handle AI work?
