Watch Janelle Monáe do yoga while wearing a crown in her new video


Janelle Monáe is gearing up to release her label compilation Wondaland Presents: The Eephus later this year, and today she dropped its first video. It's for the EP single "Yoga," a collaboration with Jidenna (Monáe's Wondaland Records labelmate) that's literally about yoga.


The song is a seductive, rolling anthem propped up by metallic handclaps and a charred, stuttering beat. And the video, which features choreographed dance moves and a diner lit by a candelabra, is pretty solid proof that Janelle Monáe is the only person in the world who can do yoga while wearing a crown.

Amazon's Fire TV now tells you which actors are in movies and shows you stream


It wasn't available at launch, but Amazon's handy X-Ray feature is now arriving on the company's Fire TV and Fire TV Stick. Just like on Fire tablets, X-Ray will provide interactive popovers displaying cast and crew details for any movies and TV shows you stream through Amazon Instant Video. (The feature does not work with Netflix, Hulu, and other streaming services that aren't Amazon's.)


X-Ray pulls in all of this data from IMDB, and as a result its capabilities extend beyond just revealing which actors you're seeing on screen. It'll also let you know what other shows and movies an actor has appeared in, and if you're new to a TV series, X-Ray can serve up a general overview and backstory for a show's lead characters. Oh, and there's...

Las GoPro salen al espacio


Habíamos visto cámaras GoPro en situaciones cuando menos comprometidas, pero la que se llevó con él el astronauta Terry Virts durante dos recientes paseos espaciales probablemente se lleve la palma.


En el que está incrustado arriba se ve en primer plano el extremo del brazo robot de la Estación Espacial Internacional, con la Tierra como espectacular fondo.


En el segundo, se puede ver el exterior de la EEI.


Los dos en HD, para disfrute de cualquier espaciotrastornado que se precie; los dos disponibles en el dominio público en EVAGo Pro .


Y sí, aunque en el espacio no hay sonido, estos vídeos sí tienen algo de sonido porque el micro de la cámara capta el sonido que producen las vibraciones que se transmiten a través de su caja.

CalDigit announces new Tuff portable USB-C drive, T4 Nano RAID




CalDigit has announced two new storage products, including a portable USB-C drive ready for your shiny new MacBook.



The Tuff is a portable drive built for durability that supports the new USB-C standard. In addition to spinning 2.5-inch hard drives, the Tuff also supports solid state drives (SSD). Aside from the USB-C to USB-C cable, the drive will also include a USB-C to USB-A cable to let it connect to devices that lack the newer connector.


The T4 Nano is a four-bay RAID solution with Thunderbolt 2 support that is built for SSDs. The T4 uses removable PCIe SSDs, and can be configured in RAID 0, 1, and 5. CalDigit is anticipating future upgrades to the device, and is offering a one-time upgrade program to T4 Nano owners that will allow them upgrade the device's interface connectivity when a future version of the product arrives.


The Tuff will ship to customers in July, starting at $139.99 with a 1TB hard drive. The T4 Nano will ship at some point in Q3 2015 for $2,499.99 for the 2TB PCIe SSD model.
