The Float ‘N’ Grill is a portable propane grill that attaches to a flip-resistant buoyant plastic raft so you can grill out on the water and not set your deck or raft on fire. The unit is available in patriotic red or blue and can be found on Amazon (affiliate link). Mmmm, can you smell that? Smells like lake water and burnt meat.
The grill detaches from its raft for easy cleaning and storage, has a specially designed grease trap, includes three molded cup holders for resting cold beers and/or seasoning, and two tow hooks for keeping the grill in place on the water. Obviously, I’m going to tow mine behind my inner tube as I float down the river and over a waterfall.
Just when you think you’ve seen it all, somebody goes and manufactures a floating grill. What will they think of next – a flying grill? Because that sounds incredibly dangerous and I must have one, how do I get on a waiting list?

The New Era of iMacs Brings the M1 Chip, a Pop of Color, and a Camera That Does the Lord's Work
Posted in: Today's ChiliMy early computing days were spent using the family PC, a hulking tower and beefy monitor that sat atop a desk in the dining room. It was not a cute machine and you had absolutely no privacy when you used it, but it belonged to everyone. My siblings and I took turns using it to work on papers for school, chat on AIM…

For a while now we have heard rumors that Apple could be redesigning the MacBook Pro. The laptop has pretty much maintained its design for quite a while now and it is due for a refresh, especially with Apple planning on introducing the Apple Silicon chipset to it. The good news is that the redesign could launch this summer.
This is according to a report from Bloomberg who claims that the redesigned MacBook Pro could be launching in the next few months. It is an odd time though because during the summer it is WWDC and the event typically is more software-focused, so we’re not sure where Apple could slot in the announcement, unless they’re making an exception.
The report also claims that the upcoming refresh could be a beast of an upgrade. The new lineup is said to feature a 10-core chipset that uses eight high-performance cores and two high-efficiency cores. It is also said to be available in 16 or 32 graphics core variants, and will also be capable of supporting up to 64GB of RAM.
The report does not mention anything about the display, because a recent report is claiming that Apple’s mini LED MacBooks might actually be postponed to 2022. Needless to say that this report shouldn’t be treated as gospel so only time will tell if this report will pan out.
Redesigned MacBook Pro Expected To Launch This Summer
