Oliver Cabell Phoenix Sneaker
That good looking show pictured above is the Oliver Cabell Phoenix Sneaker. Not only does it look nice, it is also made from repurposed plastic water bottles. The water bottles are washed, shredded, melted, and made into a plastic-yarn that is 3D printed for the shoes upper. The Phoenix sneakers are machine washable and are […]
Rise In Radiation Levels Following Explosion In Russia
The Russian’s don’t have much luck when it comes to using nuclear power/weapons. Think Chernobyl, Mayak, and Kyshtym. Well, it doesn’t stop there. This week they were testing a liquid-propelled rocket near Nyonoksa when there was an explosion that killed two people and injured at least six more. Shortly after this explosion, there was a […]
Ring Keeps Doubling Down On Creepiness
Ring (Amazon) just can’t help running over folks privacy. First, they let law enforcement know where every camera is in use, then they coached law enforcement on how to get user videos without using a warrant, and now there is evidence they were rewarding users for reporting suspicious activities. I think the “intent” might be […]
Airspeeder Racing Series
Now that the RC quadcopters and drones have proven so stable and reliable, they are growing in size and carrying humans. It was only a matter of time. Heck, the Tesla’s are basically giant versions of the electric RC cars I play with from time-to-time. Looks like these coaxial octocopter versions (and quadcopter styles) will […]
Amazon’s Ring Has Over 200 Law Enforcement Agency Partnerships – Creepy
I am a huge fan of the Nest line of cameras – the Nest Cam Outdoor, Nest Cam Indoor (just buy the outdoor version), and the Nest Hello Doorbell. With that said, I will toss them all in the trash if the Google/Nest decide to follow Amazon’s (Ring) level of creepiness with regards to sharing […]
Lego Treehouse 21318
Damn you Lego. I am a grown man. Why do you keep making me buy toys I don’t need? This beautiful treehouse comes with 3,036 pieces and is over 14-inches tall. It is currently the largest lego set in the LEGO Ideas lineup. This Lego Treehouse (21318) even comes with two sets of leaves in […]
2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray
The infamous Chevrolet Corvette has had a ton of design changes over its lifetime. Some were good and some were downright ugly. The 2020 Corvette C8 Stingray, IMHO, is one of the good years. The engineers at Chevy didn’t reuse and older designs and basically started from scratch. The 2020 C8 Corvette Stingray is the first mid-engine […]
Lil’ Nitro World’s Hottest Gummy Bear
This devil colored gummy bear is the Lil’ Nitro and it is hot, 9,000,000 Scoville heat units hot. For perspective; a jalapeno is between 2,500 and 8,000 SHU’s. Personally, I would buy a bag of these gummies and put the Lil’ Nitro towards the top of my office candy bowl. Let the good times roll. […]
2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500
Here it is, the most powerful production Ford ever made, the 2020 Mustang GT500. For somewhere between $74,000 and $95,000, you can get in line for this 760-horsepower beast. The Mustang Shelby GT500 comes with a supercharged 5.2-liter engine, a Tremec seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, active suspension, and a 0-60 time in the mid-three second range.
Boston Dynamics Robots Fight Back
You have likely seen the Boston Dynamics robotic videos on the interwebs. They are getting better at performing all kinds of tasks. There are videos of them being kicked while walking to show off their stability and adaptability. Pretty amazing stuff. Well, it was only a matter of time before another spoof video made its way […]
