Frank Ocean: Novocane

You may not know it, but every Gizmodo post has a soundtrack. A few times it’s in our videos. But most of the times it’s hidden. It’s the stuff we listen to when we write.

This Is the Closest You Will Ever Get to a Ferrari 458 Italia

According to Thrustmaster, this is the first ever racing wheel officially licensed by Ferrari for the Xbox 360. Who cares. You aren’t going drive any faster because of the Cavallino Rampante on a glorified joystick. Unless you paint flames on it. The Ferrari 458 Italia Racing Wheel is pretty neat, though. You see, it has…

The Beautiful View of Earth and the Moon From Seven Million Miles Away

Back in 1977, Voyager 1—still flying off the Solar system—took a look at Earth for a last goodbye. After leaving on July 20, 1975, she was already 7.25 million miles from her home. This is what she saw. Beautiful Earth and the Moon, together for the first time in the sky as entire objects. The…
