[embedded content] When drinking your favorite soda, do you ever wonder if it's slowly rotting away your teeth? A young scientist who goes by the name of Chase took over YouTuber Tom Scott's channel to find out once and for all which soda does the most dental damage -- Coca-Cola or Mountain Dew.In the video, posted on Monday, the young scientist dropped two molars (his sister's) into bottles of Mountain Dew and Coca-Cola soda and waited for almost three weeks to see what would happen. Keep in mind that the Mountain Dew has a pH of 3.1, while Coca-Cola has a pH of 2.5 -- making it six times more acidic than Mountain Dew. Two weeks and five days later, we see that the Mountain Dew tooth is yellow but still intact, whereas the Coca-Cola tooth is b...

A new study from the University of Pennsylvania shows just how big a difference crowd funding, and Kickstarter in particular, has made. The main findings were that Kickstarted has created 283,000 part-time jobs for creatives, 29,600 full-time jobs and 8,800 new companies, including nonprofits.

The study points out that a huge benefit of crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter is that it allows creators and ideas-types to pay creatives for work they do,...

ادامه مطلب RoadshowNewsCar CultureHypercars, sports cars, SUVs and bags of mulch: Our week on InstagramOne of these days, we're going to have a real boring week, where Roadshow and Carfection lie dormant and catch up on our vast to-do lists. But this week is not that week, so once again, we're back with yet another thinly veiled plea to start following us on Instagram.Carfection's Alex Goy is a real piece of crap. Not only did he attend the unveiling of Aston Martin's AM-RB 001 hypercar collaboration with Red Bull, but he also ended up spending some time with the Bugatti Chiron, the successor to the Veyron. I'm assuming he sold his soul to the devil, but I haven't heard him play the blues, so I can't be sure about that.Roadshow's week was a bit more grounded. Our San Francisco crew spent the week fil...

ادامه مطلب The annual E3 gaming show is the gaming equivalent of the State of the Union address. Each of the companies recap the year that was, and -- more importantly -- offer a look at what's to come. For Nintendo, the show was largely a placeholder -- the company showed off its new Zelda game, but deferred details on its next-gen NX console until later this year (both are coming in 2017). But for Microsoft and Sony, we got a fairly detailed look at how the next year is shaping up for both rival gaming platforms.Here's a brief overview of where the Xbox-versus-PlayStation landscape stands, and where it's going in...
ادامه مطلب Next year is finally now for Cleveland Cavaliers fans.Long-suffering Ohio basketball fans rejoiced Sunday as their team defeated the defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors 93-89. And they did so in a way they couldn't when the franchise was founded 52 years ago: social media. In a blizzard of tweets, diehards, like Patrick Ward, celebrated the nail-biting, edge-of-your-seat Game 7 thriller.

"Our fans deserve it. They deserve it. I came back to our city to bring a championship." The Cavs' improbable feat brought Cle...
