Here’s a fun one for Mac nostalgia fans: a new project by hobbyist Nick Gillard has taken the idea of mini retro builds to a whole micro level. Called the pico-mac-nano, this is a working replica of the original Macintosh that stands just 62 millimeters tall (that’s 2.4 inches for you, Casey Liss). And what’s more, you can actually run MacPaint and MacWrite on it. How awesome is that? The project (via BoingBoing) builds on an earlier open-source emulator by Matt Evans, who had already managed to get a Raspberry Pi Pico running System 1. Gillard took that idea and ran with it, packing it into a shockingly faithful 3D-printed case, complete with a tiny rainbow Apple logo and even a scale replica of the original Picasso-style shipping box. “I just couldn’t resist creating a matching, tiny version of the iconic ‘Picasso’ box that the original 128K Macintosh shipped in. After finally finding a manufacturer (in India!) and having the first batch back, I’m super-happy with the result; a white, full colour printed, corrugated cardboard box.” The guts of the machine are made of a Pi Pico microcontroller, a 2-inch 480×640 TFT screen configured to match the original Mac’s 512×342 resolution, and a speaker capable of those signature startup chimes. Everything runs off a custom firmware that emulates a 68000 CPU, all open-sourced and shared on GitHub. The result is a perfect desktop curiosity you can gift yourself on a special occasion or, if you’re one of these DIY creatures, build on your own. Gillard says he’ll be selling a few pre-assembled kits soon, but if you’re the DIY type, you can also grab the STL files, firmware, and a full parts list for your next weekend project over at 1BitRainbow.com.

Tech Flying motorcycle zooms at 124 mph without touching the ground A jet-powered flying bike that combines speed, agility, and futuristic design Published June 1, 2025 6:00am EDT close Flying motorcycle zooms at 124 mph without touching the ground Soar above traffc in the air with ease. Imagine gliding through city traffic, not stuck in traffic jams on the road, but soaring above them in the air with ease. The Volonaut Airbike, a jet-powered flying bike developed by Polish entrepreneur Tomasz Patan, is turning this vision into reality. With a top speed of 124 mph and a frame that is seven times lighter than a typical motorcycle, this innovative vehicle could change the way we get around in cities, making travel faster and easier. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)Jet power and featherweight designUnlike many personal flying devices that depend on large, noisy propellers, the Volonaut Airbike uses a jet propulsion system. While the exact technical details have not been disclosed, the Airbike's design emphasizes extreme lightness and agility.CHINESE WEARABLE EVTOL JETPACK MAKES HISTORIC FIRST FLIGHTExtensive use of carbon fiber and 3D-printed parts allows the vehicle to weigh just 86 pounds without a rider. This is approximately seven times lighter than an average motorcycle, which typically weighs around 600 pounds. This featherweight construction makes the Airbike nimble and efficient in the air. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)Performance and featuresThe Volonaut Airbike can reach speeds of up to 124 miles per hour, making it faster than most motorcycles in traffic. It features a proprietary stabilization system enhanced by a flight computer, which automatically maintains hover and provides ease of control for the rider. This technology allows even those with limited flying experience to handle the bike safely and confidently. The Airbike's open, roofless design offers the rider an unobstructed 360-degree view, creating a sense of complete freedom and immersion in the flying experience. Additionally, the absence of spinning propellers means the Airbike can navigate through tight spaces with greater ease and safety. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)A real-life flying bike inspired by imaginationThe Volonaut Airbike's sleek, futuristic silhouette and compact size evoke the image of a flying motorcycle that many have dreamed about for years. Its design and performance bring to life a concept often seen in movies and stories about the future of transportation. Volonaut's promotional videos even feature a rider dressed as a Stormtrooper, highlighting the bike's resemblance to the flying vehicles of popular culture. This playful nod underscores the Airbike's blend of cutting-edge technology and imaginative design. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)Meet the inventor: Tomasz PatanTomasz Patan is a visionary engineer with a talent for creating groundbreaking airborne vehicles. He is best known for the Jetson One, a quad-rotor electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) drone that can carry a human pilot. Building on the success of that project, Patan has now introduced the Volonaut Airbike, a smaller, more agile flying machine that relies on jet propulsion rather than propellers. His work continues to push the boundaries of what personal flight can achieve. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)What about the cost?When it comes to price, the Volonaut Airbike is still something of a mystery. Patan has not yet revealed an official cost, but if you look at his previous project, the Jetson One drone, which was priced at around $92,000, you can get a rough idea of where the Airbike might land. Given the advanced materials, jet propulsion and sophisticated flight computer involved, it's safe to assume this won't be a budget-friendly ride. However, as with most new technologies, prices often come down over time as production scales up and designs are refined. So, while it might start out as a high-end gadget for early adopters and enthusiasts, there's hope that flying bikes like this could become more accessible in the years ahead.WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)? Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)What lies ahead for the Volonaut Airbike?Although the Volonaut Airbike has already been demonstrated in flight, many details remain undisclosed. Patan has not yet revealed the exact propulsion technology, pricing or release date, but he has expressed optimism the Airbike will be available to the public in the near future. As development continues, this flying motorcycle could soon become a practical option for urban commuters seeking a faster, more flexible way to travel. Jet-powered flying bike  (Volonaut)Kurt's key takeawaysHonestly, the Volonaut Airbike feels like something we've all dreamed about but never thought we'd actually see. It's exciting to watch this blend of bold engineering and creative design come to life, making personal flight more real than ever before. Sure, it might be a bit pricey at first, but who knows? Maybe in a few years, zipping through the skies on a flying bike will be just as normal as hopping on a motorcycle today.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPWould you feel comfortable trading your motorcycle for a flying bike that soars above city traffic?

Dotemu is on a pretty good run. The video game studio and publisher has been around since 2007, and much of its history is largely working on remakes and remasters of older games. But it’s also been involved with major hits in the form of sequels and new games that are in the spirit of older classics, including Streets of Rage 4 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge.All of that work is culminating in what looks to be a promising 2025, with three new but classics-inspired games: Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, a new side-scroller for the series; Marvel Cosmic Invasion, an arcade-y beat-’em-up; and Absolum, an original beat-’em-up with roguelike elements. Absolum. Image: Dotemu“We’re open to everything,” CEO Cyrille Imbert tells The Verge. Despite his title, Imbert says his job involves acting like an executive producer to bring together concepts that answer specific needs for franchises.Before Shredder’s Revenge’s 2022 release, for example, there hadn’t been a good side-scrolling TMNT game for “a while,” he says. (Turtles in Time, which helped inspire the game, came out in 1991.) “We were convinced that there was a need for that.” There was: the game sold 1 million copies in its first week, developer Tribute Games said at the time.Dotemu takes on “most of the risk” of a project based on an existing franchise, Imbert says, meaning that while the company needs to convince a franchise owner to get on board, Dotemu typically finances everything and is responsible for finding a studio to execute a concept.“From A to Z, we are in control of the project, but we take the risk from A to Z as well,” explains Imbert. “Sometimes the studio will also participate financially, but it’s fairly rare, or it’s usually a minority of the total spending.” Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound. Image: DotemuWith the new Ninja Gaiden game, for example, Imbert says he was familiar with the 3D iterations of the franchise on Xbox, and he also saw the success of recent action-platformers like The Messenger. So, he started conversations with Koei Tecmo, and then worked with The Game Kitchen, the developer of Blasphemous, on a pitch. “That’s the story, basically,” Imbert says.For Marvel Cosmic Invasion, Imbert says that following Streets of Rage 4, “lots of people” had been asking for a new X-Men game that was like what you used to find in arcades. “We knew there was a need and that people would really like it,” he says, especially if it got a similar treatment as Streets of Rage 4 or Shredder’s Revenge. The idea was “very obvious” to the Tribute Games team as well, so Dotemu and Tribute made a pitch to Marvel Games.Absolum, as a fully original game, is different from its other titles. From a pure business perspective, it’s a way for Dotemu to diversify its lineup so that the company doesn’t rely entirely on licensed games. Internally, the Dotemu team felt like they could do their own thing, and by making it inspired by classics, it would still fit in Dotemu’s lineup, Imbert says. They also wanted to work with Guard Crush, which worked on Streets of Rage 4, on another beat-’em-up.It all adds up to what’s going to be a busy year for the company. It has three games that show the different approaches it has to making these kinds of experiences, and all of them were chosen for a specific reason. “That’s how we’re going to be proud of what we do.”See More:
