Internet Explorer is passing the baton to Microsoft Edge

Internet Explorer is history. Well, at least as far as future Windows operating systems are concerned, since a successor has been announced for some time. It was presented as Spartan in the trial version of Windows 10, but now Microsoft has revealed the official name - Microsoft Edge. It will become the official web browser of the upcoming Windows 10 operating system.

Fascinating photos of Los Angeles, the city of angels, from an "angelic" perspective

Photographer Vincent Laforet has pleasantly surprised us several times with stunning aerial photographs of American cities. We have already seen New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco from a bird's eye view. From his last helicopter flight over the United States, however, he returned with the most breathtaking and extensive photo series to date. From an angelic (read bird's eye) perspective, he showed Los Angeles, the city of angels, in the most beautiful possible light.

Bizarre socialist architecture that still stands

Architecture from the mid-20th century has not stood the test of time. People didn't love her. This is especially true for ex-communist countries in Europe and Central Asia. The communist ideology, which flowed through all phases of life there, was imposed and consolidated through socialist architecture, among other things. This gave not only boring, but sometimes also extremely bizarre objects. Some of them are still standing 25 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Infiniti Vision GT - a concept that managed to jump from the digital to the real environment

The Infiniti Vision GT supercar looks like something that belongs in a video game. No wonder, when he was created for her. More specifically for Gran Turismo 6. So it started its journey as "just" one of the digital options for the needs of playing the infamous game, but now it has transformed from a computer form to an actual one. And at the same time kept the same body, the same lines as it has on the screen. Nevertheless, it is not yet known whether we will actually ever be able to buy it. Well, we will always be left with a virtual purchase in GT6.

Grilling La Caja China - when preparing a pig in the oven becomes a breeze

Roasting meat on special La Caja China grills is more than just baking. It is an experience, it is a ritual, it is a culture. These are special "box" grills made in the USA, which enable an old-fashioned way of preparing food, which cuts the meat preparation time in half. Unlike the grills we are familiar with, these allow roasting a whole pig and other animals. The most famous American housewife, Martha Stewart, also has her own.

The evolution of the Google browser or how Google is becoming our slave

Google usually told us how to do something. Now it will do it for you. Some time ago, Google refined its famous browser with two small but important additions. Type "find my phone" and Google will locate it on a map and offer to call it. If you type "send directions" it will direct you to it. Google has come a long way in its 16-year search history, but this is actually just the beginning.

Touchless Shutter: Sony with a camera app that automatically fires when you move your hand

Sony introduced the Touchless Shutter app for automatic camera activation. We trigger this by waving our hand in front of the viewfinder, i.e. the small window where we see what will be captured in the photo. As we know that taking photos in low light conditions can be a real nightmare, often resulting in blurry photos (even when using a tripod or a steady hand), this is a more than welcome addition.

Spouses who built a self-sufficient home on a raft

After Canadians Wayne Adams and Catherine King got fed up with city life and the constant hustle and bustle that came with it, in 1992 they picked up their awls and hooves with their two children and moved to the wilderness, more precisely to the coast near Tofino, British Columbia . There, they built a self-sufficient floating home on a raft on 12 platforms over 20 years, which is not connected to any network. Not electric, not water, not gas.

The Atacama Expedition Motorcycle is the perfect tent for motorcyclists

Atacama Expedition Motorcycle is already the third generation of Redverz tents, which are intended for motorcyclists and their steel horses. You know, some people have affectionate names for their motorcycles, some people talk to them, so a special place in the tent is nothing surprising for them, at most a welcome addition that ensures greater safety and dryness of the two-wheeler during camping.

Kickstarter hit - The Unstainable, a white women's shirt that is impossible to get dirty

Are you also afraid to wear white because potential stains are lurking everywhere? With the white women's shirt The Unstainable, women no longer have to be afraid of this, because it is no match for stains from coffee, salad dressings, wine, ice cream and ketchup. Because of the intelligent textile - it is coated with nanoparticles - it is practically impossible to get the silk shirt dirty. No wonder it's such a hit on Kicstarte, which probably means it's going to be a fashion hit soon.

Tesla with batteries that store solar energy and will change the course of history

Elon Musk, the father of the electric car brand Tesla, is not nicknamed the Steve Jobs of the automobile for nothing. He proved this once more when he introduced the Tesla Powerwall batteries, which have the ability to store solar energy. These would or will power homes, businesses, maybe even the entire world. By being able to store the energy of solar cells for later use, which until now has been the biggest obstacle in the use of renewable energy sources, they are changing not only the "producer" of electricity, but the very course of history.
