Some will consider it blasphemy, but after 98 years, the Converse brand has decided to give the legendary Converse Chuck Taylor All-Stars, which were named after the amateur basketball player Chuck Taylor, a new look. They look almost identical on the outside, but on the inside, the Chuck IIs, as they were called, are much more comfortable than their predecessors.

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
But not because she was bad. Quite the opposite. The Dell Latitude 12 Rugged Tablet is an excellent tablet and the first from Dell that is also physically extremely durable. The fact that they are extremely capable is what we are used to with Dell devices anyway, and this time is no different. It is intended for everyone who works or moves in demanding environments, and it will also suit people of a more clumsy nature. The IP-65 standard guarantees it resistance to water, dust, sand, vibrations, falls, shocks and extreme temperatures.
Since the advent of mobile phones, and even more so smart phones, etiquette at the dining table has failed. People take pictures of food to keep it cool in the meantime, we don't even know what we're eating, because our eyes are glued to the screen, and parents literally have to push their children to put it down and eat a meal normally and find out how it was at school. It's likely that your smartphone has sparked an argument at your desk. Now Ikea has a solution. This will be part of the Sittning collection, a limited series of products that will also include a special Logged out placemat with a smartphone pocket.
Yes, you read that right. With a bit of luck, you can visit the Science Museum in London by bike in August. That is if you get drawn. Guided bike tours will take place from August 12 to 14, 2015.
Software exists to simplify and facilitate our lives. But that sounds too good to be entirely true. The technology sector is booming and cloud services are mushrooming. With all these options, it can be difficult to pick out the tools you actually need. Choose the wrong one and you'll end up with more work, not less. That's why we dug into the offer and selected tools that will help you work less and smarter.
The list of the most visually beautiful films of all time is a real treat for lovers of aesthetics. Film history is full of films where the colors and scenography explode and where the emphasis on the external image of the film is at least as important as on the story itself and the elaboration of the characters. Some directors even rely on it too much and try to use it like powder for pimples to hide the flaws of the film. But these are waters for film critics. We only give you beautiful things because we know you love them.
You've probably seen many architectural ideas of the future, but the Dalian House is like something straight out of a science fiction movie. Its conceptual design was signed by the Preliminary Research Office, which gave it a deflected and asymmetrical shape. Its interior, on the other hand, resembles a copy of a prehistoric cave dwelling rather than futurism (if we disregard modern materials, of course).
The E1 is the world's smallest 4K video camera with interchangeable lenses. There are quite a few action cameras on the market that can boast of such quality, as can the cameras with the "Micro Four Thirds" format (micro 4/3) found by Olympus and Panasonic. But only Z's E1 combines the size and simplicity of an action camera with the ability to use any micro 4/3 lens (supports all Panasonic/Olympus MFT lenses). You can pre-order it on Kickstarter.
The fight for our wrist continues. After classic jewelry and watches, now there are smart watches and other technological gadgets, and the latest to join this series of products fighting for this human "real estate" is the Helix bracelet. Why would I convince you? Because of its elegance and ergonomics? You can. But the Helix, which is launching on Kickstarter, offers even more. In fact, it hides Bluetooth headphones, an essential accessory of man in the 21st century.
Although the fight against plastic shopping bags has been going on for a long time, as they represent a major ecological problem, they persist. But they are steadily and slowly being replaced by greener alternatives, especially in the form of reusable bags. One such is PaperJohn, a kraft paper bag that is 100% recyclable and biodegradable. In addition to being ecological, this solves another problem of plastic shopping bags - swallowing in the palm of your hand. Its handles are extended into shoulder straps, so it can also be worn as a backpack.
Tetra Shed is a geometric mobile office for indoor and outdoor spaces signed by Innovation Imperative, an architectural practice. The multifunctional concept object is made of wood covered with black rubber. A mobile office can serve as a room within a room, but it is also suitable for outdoor spaces.
The same level of madness and adrenaline. The other driver. This is the shortest possible synopsis of the new movie from the Transporter series, subtitled The Transporter: Refueled. Jason Statham handed over the steering wheel to another Brit, Ed Skrein, while he himself preferred to focus on another franchise - Mechanic. Although Skrein had big shoes to fill, judging by the trailer, there is no reason to fear that the fourth film in the series will fail the test.
