New York architects are planning this giant electric car charging tower for Shanghai
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 22 views
Electric cars are the future of transportation — or at least a big part of the future of transportation — but charging them is still an undeniable hassle. Unlike gas-powered vehicles, electric cars and trucks can't simply get a quick tank full of electricity and then zip off a few minutes later. So what will be the future of gas stations when gas becomes a secondary option? New York's Ennead Architects think they've got a good idea, and it's a giant charging tower that scoops up electric cars so it can move them out of the way while they're being charged.

For several years now we have watched manufacturers work on development of devices that are foldable, bendable and otherwise break out of the mold of a static shape. Although it was never confirmed, Samsung supposedly is on the verge of bringing such a device to market and was showing a prototype at MWC 2017.

Facebook and Google reveal how they plan to fight fake news
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 27 views
Facebook and Google have had a significant role in the spread of fake news, facing plenty of criticism last year after the US presidential election since fake news is believed to have had a huge impact on the result. Neither Facebook nor Google actively contributed to disseminating fake news. Seemingly motivated by financial or political gain, some people and organizations took advantage of the way Facebook and Google work and used the services to spread fake news. But both companies have promised to fight the phenomenon, separately announcing measures meant to combat that viral lies that are told online. Continue reading...

Tesla wants everyone to know: The Model 3 won’t be more advanced than the Model S
by Guest Yoni Heisler- 0 replies
- 26 views
With Tesla poised to begin Model 3 production in just about three months, the company in recent weeks has taken steps to temper unreasonably high expectations surrounding its $35,000 EV designed for the masses. Arguably fueled by Elon Musk's coy remarks about mysterious "reveals" in the future, the speculation surrounding Tesla's Model 3 in recent months was on the verge of spiraling out of control. In a general sense, many people began to assume that the Model 3 would introduce features and technology far more advanced than what is currently available on the company's flagship Model 3.

Uber is going through some tough times right about now. Indeed, it seems that we can't even go a full week without hearing about a new lawsuit or scandal involving the famed ride-sharing company. Over the last five weeks alone, we've seen video of Uber CEO Travis Kalanick aggressively arguing with an Uber driver about driver-pay, reports of Uber executives visiting brothels in South Korea, and last but not least, a sensational lawsuit alleging that Uber misappropriated self-driving car technology from Google's Waymo division.

New ‘4D’ Adidas shoes are catered to your weight
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 24 views
Back in the 1990s all it took to sell shoes was a celebrity — typically a sports star — to give them a half-hearted endorsement. That's it. These days the footwear market is much different, and consumers dropping big bucks on name brand kicks demand some serious pageantry. Adidas is offering plenty of that and more with its new Futurecraft 4D athletic shoes which, according to the company, will lead to more customization in its apparel than was ever possible before.

Nintendo just milked a real cow to promote the Switch
by Guest Zach Epstein- 0 replies

The Nintendo Switch is essentially selling itself at this point. The new video game console is flying off store shelves, and opportunities to actually get your hands on one are few and far between. Your best bet is to hop on Amazon and snag one there, but you'll have to pick a reputable seller and you'll also have to pay a premium. There are a couple of other ways to score a Switch right now as well, and we covered them in an earlier post. As hot as the Switch is right now, it obviously never hurts to toss a little fuel on the fire so Nintendo has been running plenty of TV commercials. We've also seen a number of online-only marketing campaigns for the Switch, and Nint…

We spend a lot of time scouring the internet in search of deals on all of the coolest gadgets out there, and there’s no doubt that you’ve scored some seriously great gear if you follow along. Now, it’s time to change the way you carry all that gear around with you. The MOS Pack is one of the sleekest and most well-designed bags we’ve come across in quite some time.

This slim back includes plenty of compartments and even cable loops to keep your cords from getting tangled and mangled, but one of the coolest features has to be the integrated wall charger that hides inside the bag.

Mark your calendars, folks. One week from today, the eighth installment of The Fast and the Furious franchise will hit theaters nationwide. Dubbed The Fate of the Furious, the film's trailer teases an even heavier dose of action and insane stunts than ever before. Coupled with an impressive and surprisingly star-studded cast, there's a good chance the film will dominate the box office next weekend. Directed by F Gary Gray and featuring big names like Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Kurt Russel, Charlize Theron and more, the film's plot doesn't much matter because all anyone really cares about are fast cars and high octane action scenes. And if the trailers we've seen th…

Look, everyone in the office loves Martha. She's always so nice and cheery, and she even picks up donuts for everyone a few times a month. That's why nobody says anything when she cranks the heat up to 110 degrees. Everyone just sits there, quietly suffering in pools of their own sweat. What you might not know, however, is that there's a way to make yourself more comfortable without upsetting Martha by politely asking her to lower the heat to a livable temperature. Check out the Evapolar Personal Air Cooler + Humidifier, a tiny glowing box that creates a nice cool "microclimate" covering roughly 45 sq ft.
