Kids love dinosaurs, which is why they collect all of the Jurassic Park toys. Adults also love dinosaurs, and they also buy the toys. But if you’re looking for a collectible that is a bit more adult than some action figures and dino statues, check out this Jurassic Block fossil collection.

Jurassic Blocks are 5 by 5-inch blocks made with high-quality, super clear acrylic, and have real dinosaur fossils embedded inside. Owning actual pieces of dinosaur sounds pretty damn cool. I don’t know anyone else who owns any dino-bits, so I could be the only one on my block to have this. Awesome.

Serious dino buffs are going to love this. IWT Designs has curated these fossils excavated from all over the world, and they include fossilized remains from the late Cretaceous period, like a dinosaur eggshell, T.rex bone and raptor, and it also has fossils of creatures from the late Jurassic era like the stegosaurus, triceratops, and pterosaur.

It will cost you $175 to $199 on Kickstarter. The campaign has already passed its set funding goal, and they should start arriving in your mailbox around January 2019. This is really a great idea for dino lovers and will impress your geek friends.

With more and more people “living” on the Web these days, web browsers have become both gateways as well as points of vulnerability. As one of that major gateways, Google’s Chrome browser has an even bigger responsibility to ensure users’ safety. And because of its Chrome extensions system, that goes beyond just the core of the browser. With version 30 … Continue reading

It was rumored earlier this year that Google was developing a game streaming service of its own and those rumors seem to be true. The company today announced Project Stream. It’s calling it a “technical test” to ascertain just how well streaming games to the Chrome browser works. It has teamed up with Ubisoft to stream its upcoming Assassin’s Creed Odyssey game as part of this test.

This technology will form the building block for the rumored game streaming service, at least the test confirms this much. Starting October 5th, a limited number of participants will be allowed to play the latest Assassin’s Creed title at no charge for the duration of the Project Stream test.

This will be no easy feat as streaming such graphically-rich content which requires almost instant interaction between the game controller and the graphics on the screen presents a set of unique challenges. Consumers are fine with a few seconds of buffering at the start when they’re streaming TV shows or movies but that’s not the case with high quality games which require latency measured in milliseconds with no graphic degradation.

There are limited spaces available for Project Stream. Those who are interested will be able to apply on the dedicated website for this test. It’s aimed at people with home internet connections of 25 megabits per second. Those who are interested are required to be 17 years or older and based in the United States.
