Tesla Cybertruck Owner Finds Excessive Use of Glue During Wash
A Tesla Cybertruck owner in California discovered the vehicle's light bar detaching due to reliance on glue, raising concerns about the durability and assembly quality of EVs, especially under high temperatures. The incident highlights the importance of using high-quality materials and better design practices to ensure safety, longevity, and consumer trust in electric vehicles.
Google Pixel Watch defects causing frustration for users
Some users are reporting that the back panels of their Google Pixel Watches are falling off due to the glue used to hold them in place. This compromises the device's water resistance and may result in water damage. While Google is reportedly taking care of the problem under warranty, some users were initially threatened with a $300 repair fee. The issue may be resolved with better glue or the use of visible screws on the back of the watch.
Spider Glue Properties Outpace Gene Evolution, Study Shows.
Scientists have studied the glue that makes orb weaver spiders' webs sticky to understand how its material properties vary in different conditions. They found that the material properties of the glue evolve faster than the genes that encode them. The study focused on two species of orb weaver spider living in different environments, which means their glue must adapt to different levels of humidity. The team found that droplets from one species are smaller than those from the other and absorb less water as local humidity increases. The scientists also analyzed the proteins found in the glue droplets to understand how these differences in material properties arise from the proteins.
