Continuing the trend of "Surprise!" album releases that his band Radiohead pretty much started seven years ago, Thom Yorke just up and released an album on BitTorrent today. It’s called Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes and it’ll cost you $6. This almost feels like déjà vu.

Hi, I’m an autojournalist. Car companies fly me and my colleagues around the world to drive their fancy new cars.

Forza Horizon 2, available for Xbox One on September 30, is different from last year’s Forza 5, which aims to offer an exact reproduction of real-world racing. Instead of being limited to tracks, Horizon 2 drivers have access to a huge chunk of southern France and Italy, from Nice to Castelletto (complete with stunning visuals and realistic weather). Even better, unlike the original, Colorado-based Forza Horizon, drivers aren’t limited to roadways. It’s like Grand Theft Auto: You can go nearly anywhere. Forests, hay fields, off-road trails, and pedestrian walkways are all accessible.

Through apps and accessories our smartphones can be almost any digital tool we could ever need, including a thermal camera as FLIR showed us
earlier this year. Not surprisingly, competing products to the FLIR ONE have started to appear, including the Seek thermal camera which promises a considerably smaller form factor and a cheaper price tag, without sacrificing too much in terms of its capabilities.

If you’re lucky enough to catch a glimpse of cardboard’s enemy list, you’ll probably find water up near the top alongside cats and fire. The two just don’t mix, which is why it’s incredibly impressive that Ernest Packaging Solutions, working with the folks from Signal Snowboards, were able to make a surfboard out of cardboard that didn’t disintegrate as soon as it touched the ocean.
