😜 Influencing Influencers
The fast and the fabulous.
Instagram hackable is the new cool.
Don't get caught in your underwear
Answering the door is so 2017. That's why Cainiao (part of the Alibaba Group) developed a new way for you to receive packages while you're dancing around in your underwear playing VR games.
Deliveries get dropped into a secure locker just outside your door. It's both expandable and temperature controlled (very cool), and can be unlocked using facial recognition.
NYC in mind-blowing 12K
4K not enough pixels for you? Well, if you're like the team behind this video, your next step is to purchase three $80,000 RED 8K resolution cameras. Then, rent a helicopter, strap the cameras to the nose, and fly over New York City.
Cartier destroys their own watches
Over the last two years, Richemont—the Swiss parent company of brands like Cartier, Piaget, IWC, and Vacheron Constantin—has destroyed nearly €500m of their own unsold watches. Apparently, it's to avoid them being sold at discount prices or on the grey market. Whoever it was that made that call must have the perfect evil laugh.
Make your old lock jealous
Tapplock is great because it shakes up yet another boring industry: padlocks. Those stupid things haven't changed in years. Now you can open your lock in seconds with just the tap of a finger. Or, if your hands aren't working, morse code button presses.
Better yet, they are just about to release Tapplock Lite (pictured above), which makes huge strides to slim things down from their first model.
The fast and the fabulous
Have you ever wondered what those kiddie cars would be like with a real engine instead of a plastic one? No? Well watch this fun video anyway.
Sniffable wheels are on the horizon
Goodyear has created a new prototype wheel that will help purify city air. Moisture from the road gets trapped inside the airless, 3D-printed tires that channel it to the moss inside the wheel. I assume it also comes with tiny robots to weed the moss, too, because nobody has time for that.
