Watch Bugatti test the first 3D-printed brake caliper
Back at the start of 2018, Bugatti revealed that it was working on the first 3D-printed brake caliper. Now that the year is winding to a close, it's finally ready to show the caliper in action. Bugatti has posted a video (below) of a test that simulated braking at speeds as high as 249MPH. As you might imagine, it was quite the show -- the disc alone reached temperatures up to 1,877F, and there were plenty of flames and sparks as the caliper and disc reached their limit.
See the stylish and confusing vehicles from the Paris Auto Show
The Paris Auto Show 2018 may have been devoid of big vehicle launches, but that doesn't mean it was boring. We saw a mix of cool (the Peugeot E-Legend), weird (Renault's EZ-ULTIMO), quick (Infiniti's Project Black S) and long-range (the Kia e-Niro). Other vehicles appeared in public for the first time, like Bugatti's 1,500 horsepower, $5.8 million, 236 mph W16 Divo, and Mercedes EQC 400 SUV launching in 2020. Mercedes incredible electric supercar, the EQ Silver Arrow concept (above), also made its car show debut. Here's a petite sampling of the most interesting cars from the show.
Indie Royale goes Back to School 2: Save Harder
Indie Royale has prepared yet another bundle to celebrate the youngsters' return to school. The Back to School Bundle 2 features six games in total, five known and one mystery offering. Thunder Wolves, from Most Wanted Entertainment, headlines this Indie Royale bundle, offering helicopter-based dogfights in an arcade shooter setting. Stellar Impact from Tindalos Interactive is next on the list, presenting players with tactical space combat as they work to upgrade their ships, weaponry and personnel. Divo, a puzzle-platformer from Jugadorgl, is perhaps the most unusual of the group; it's a game where players control a hamster stuck in "a cyber wheel." Then there's 100% Orange Juice, an interactive board game by Orange_Juice for up to four players, and Apple Jack 1&2 – a double pack of the noted platformer that made its debut on Xbox Live Indie Games in 2010. This bundle will be available for chump change over the next week. The current minimum is $5.17, and anyone who forks over more than the minimum will also score a bonus album: "Chiptunes 2013" by Darkman007.
