Most fitness trackers are still butt-ugly. But Withings, fresh from its split with Nokia, is back to remind us that it doesn’t have to be this way.
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.

Just when you thought you were safe from IoT on your keyboard, Das Keyboard has come out with the 5Q, a smart keyboard that can send you notifications and change colors based on the app you’re using.
These kinds of keyboards aren’t particularly new — you can find gaming keyboards that light up all the colors of the rainbow. But the 5Q is almost completely programmable and you can connect to the automation services IFTTT or Zapier. This means you can do things like blink the Space Bar red when someone passes your Nest camera or blink the Tab key white when the outdoor temperature falls below 40 degrees.
You also can make a key blink when someone Tweets, which could be helpful or frustrating:
The $249 keyboard is delightfully rugged and the switches — called Gamma Zulu and made by Das Keyboard — are nicely clicky but not too loud. The keys have a bit of softness to them at the half-way point, so if you’re used to Cherry-style keyboards you might notice a difference here. That said, the keys are rated for 100 million actuations, far more than any competing switch. The RGB LEDs in each key, as you can see below, are very bright and visible, but when the keys’ lights are all off the keyboard is completely unreadable. This, depending on your desire to be Case from Neuromancer, is a feature or a bug. There also is a media control knob in the top-right corner that brings up the Q app when pressed.
The entire package is nicely designed, but the 5Q begs the question: Do you really need a keyboard that can notify you when you get a new email? The Mac version of the software is also a bit buggy right now, but they are updating it constantly and I was able to install it and run it without issue. Weird things sometimes happen, however. For example currently my Escape and F1 keys are now blinking red and I don’t know how to turn them off.
That said, Das Keyboard makes great keyboards. They’re my absolute favorite in terms of form factor and key quality, and if you need a keyboard that can notify you when a cryptocurrency goes above a certain point or your Tesla stock is about to tank, look no further than the 5Q. It’s a keyboard for hackers by hackers and, as you can see below, the color transitions are truly mesmerizing.

Zhiyun Tech might not be a household name at this point in time, but the company is certainly going places. Their latest release is the WEEBILL LAB stabilizer that was specially developed for mirrorless cameras. The name might sound rather curious at first, but it has been christened as such after Australia’s smallest songbird, where it offers a light, compact and nimble stabilizer body that’s filled with features while delivering top-notch performance in a manner that is similar to its avian namesake.
For those who have a strong interest in making films, Zhiyun Tech understands that you want something that is natural enough to use while being easy to control, and the WEEBILL LAB delivers these capabilities. This high-quality aluminum tripod can be folded in order to hold the WEEBILL LAB as a traditional vertically-held stabilizer, while boasting of the option to be snapped on the horizontal part of the body in a jiffy in order to offer a more natural horizontal grip. Either way, you will be able to also obtain perfect for underslung shots or have a steady two hand grip.
This all-new professional stabilizer works great for mirrorless digital cameras, as long as they do not tip the scales at more than 3kg. With a lightweight body form factor, a versatile design, great control, and action-oriented design, you can be sure that your next photoshooting session will be more fun and perhaps more adventurous. The engine itself is 50% smaller, and yet it is able to deliver 80% more power compared to other stabilizers in its class.
A single charge of the WEEBILL LAB will allow it to run for up to 10 hours, making it more than enough to handle a full day’s work without requiring a trip to the nearest power outlet. In addition, it is also able to charge the camera that is installed on it, although that would then reduce its operating hours.
