There's a certain delight to be had in doing something just to see if you can. Case in point: rendering Doom using PCB design software, or wading through the shores of Hell via the medium of an oscilloscope. Enter Mike Ayles, who pondered if it was possible to render Doom in vectors using KiCad. The answer? Of course it was. Doom can run on pretty much anything.

Maingear's DOOM Edition desktop completely changes this approach by fusing cutting-edge hardware with the legendary visual language of gaming's most iconic franchise. The one-of-a-kind design creates a carefully crafted tribute that celebrates both technical excellence and gaming history in ways that feel authentic rather than forced. The design immediately commands attention with its custom matte black chassis featuring laser-etched DOOM branding and crimson red accents that feel genuinely hellish.

There's a lovely device called a PiStorm, an adapter board that glues a Raspberry Pi GPIO [General-Purpose Input/Output] bus to a Motorola 68000 bus. The intended use case is that you plug it into a 68000 device and then run an emulator that reads instructions from hardware (ROM or RAM) and emulates them.

The mod looks to recreate Fallout 1's Ghoul city of Necropolis as a FPS campaign using GZDoom, a modified version of Doom that supports modern features.

The new Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones offer significant improvements, particularly in mic quality and noise-canceling features, despite their high price of $450.

The custom Harley Davidson Sportster S themed around Doom: The Dark Ages features a design inspired by the dragon Serrat, creating a unique and collectible item for fans.
