[Doink the Clown]

Eto, nisam naišao na sličnu temu na našem forumu pa da otvorimo ovdje mjesto gdje svatko može linkati na nekizanimljiv geđet s kojim se susretne u bespućima Interneta. Ponekad se stvarno zna naći korisnih stvarčica proizašlih iz dosjetljivih mozgova (naravno ako netko od vas ima pokoji svoj patent slobdno neka se pohvali )
Btw. moja preporuka da se ne linkaju raznorazne seksualne igračke, oružja i slične opačine, keep the thread clean and simple
Za početak nekoliko handy gadgeta na koje sam naletio na
http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/


Guppie is one tool to rule them all

We have reported on the Lil Guppie before, and I suppose that this is the next step up, the Guppie. Actually, I think that this Guppie is the same as the Lil Guppie, just like Lil Bow Wow is the same as Bow Wow. (Oh, why do those young rappers put Lil in front of their names? Don’t they know that they will grow out of the Lil?) This Guppie is one tool that I would have in my pocket, possibly the only one. The Guppie has an adjustable wrench with the crescent wrench adjuster worm gear. It also has a flip-out knife, and an LED flashlight, but I don’t see it in my picture. Did I mention the beer bottle opener? It’s got one, and I’m guessing its by its weird flip-up handle.
It also has a screwdriver with some magnetic heads, and the user can add his or her own.
All in all, the Guppie is the one tool to rule them all, like it says in my headline. By the way, there have been many a geek who has used that one (insert pronoun here) to rule them all headline. It probably isn’t worth it to use it again.
I’m not certain why it is called the Guppie. Is that because it is fish shaped, like a guppy? By the way, if you run a search on Guppie, one definition is “a gay yuppie”. Not something I would name a tool after, and I definitely wouldn’t have put “Lil” in front of it.

Cleankeys keyboard is easy to clean

Seeing these Cleankeys keyboard reminds me of the Atari 400. Some of you may not remember this slightly cheaper version of the Atari 800 home computer that used a TV as a monitor, but the keyboard did not have the individual keys like the ones on most of our PCs and laptops of today. The problem with the 400 is that they had a way of not relaying input when then were touched lightly. Hopefully, the people who made the Cleankeys have solved this problem, but I think that their goal was to make a computer keyboard that would be easily cleanable.
All you need to do is just wipe it down like you would a window. Not only is this a computer for all germphobics, but for most offices where computer keyboards are shared amongst employees.
The cleankeys have a numeric keypad, and what looks like a circular touchpad in its lower right hand corner. Now, an easily cleanable keyboard is the good news. The bad news is the price tag. It costs about $400.
Yeah, I don’t know about you, but I’m willing to take a risk with germs rather than pay that price for a keyboard, which is about four times more than a regular keyboard. Maybe if it was wireless, I would pay a little more, but that is usually it.

Black Box cleans hands and feet in seconds

I’m going to tell you something that I’m not exactly ashamed of, but I’m not proud of it. You see, I hate washing my hands. Maybe it’s because I’m on the go constantly, and barely have time to use the restroom. However, if I had one of these black boxes (not to be confused with the ones used on airplanes), then hand sanitation would be a snap.
This box uses plasma gas, the same type of plasma clearning that is used to sterilize medical instruments. This box allows the user to sanitize one’s hands in just four seconds.

Beer Chiller gives cold beer in 90 seconds

It’s Friday yet again and for those that are still stuck at work, you’re probably dreaming of when you finally get to go home. If in that daydream there’s a nice cold beer waiting for you, you’ll like this contraption. Instead of jamming your beer in the freezer and risking leaving it in too long, you can have a device that safely makes it cold in no time at all.

The Missisipi Distiller

This looks like some sort of strange mad scientist design of a contraption which concocts a weird potion after putting in all sorts of exotic ingredients. Actually, it is known as the Missisipi Distiller that attempts to capture the original spirit (pun not intended) of the American south distilling heritage.

Designed in Barcelona, Spain, this finely crafted home distiller illustrates the nuances of English that are often lost in translation. The still’s copper frame is engraved with Missisipi Destil Co.–an honest, if poorly translated, attempt to pay homage to the distilling heritage of the American south. Destined to elicit questions from guests and encourage conversation, the distiller is reminiscent of those used to make brandy or extract essential oils from plants for use in perfumes. The alcohol burner, cucurbit, condensing pot, and collection cup are made from heat-resistant borosilicate glass–the same glass used in laboratory beakers. The distiller is mounted on a walnut base and its frame is made from five copper plates secured in place with copper rivets.

How much does it cost to bring this piece of memorabilia home? $199.95.

[m4dm4n]

Jedan mali prijedlog, ako već pišete o gadgetima, stavite link gdje se prodaje, te, je li dobavljivo u HR plus cijenu.

hocuto je malo skuplji (ali opet, kao i sve kod nas). Ali ima kul stvari!

Optimus Maximus Keyboard

Fabled Optimus Maximus Keyboard has Arrived
Yep. Time to take a second mortgage on your home or break into your kid's college fund. With the singing of angels and a ray of sunlight parting the clouds, the fabled Optimus Maximus Keyboard has descended from Russian design studio Art Lebedev like an orgasm of geekiness. As you should know by now this amazing keyboard features a tiny screen on each key... that's 113 screens in all. What can you do with these tiny screens, you ask? Well, each key can change its image dynamically depending on what you're doing.
Hold down SHIFT and all keys go uppercase. Run Photoshop and you can set it so each hotkey has an image representing its function. Set a key to monitor your CPU usage or display what iTunes track you are currently playing. You can make a key into a tiny clock with moving hands and play animated gif files or even quicktime movies. Of course all this futuristic technology is going to cost you a pretty penny... but we figure you'll just expense the Optimus and tout its "incredible increased efficiency when using PowerPoint hotkeys" in your expense report summary.

Legendarno

[Doink the Clown]

I love my P3 Kill-A-Watt power meter, so when I spotted the Kill-A-Watt power strip at CES, I immediately knew its value: Track all your earth-killing home-theater gear with a single tool. It works, but "simple" is good and bad.
At a glance, anyone who's used a $30-$40 Kill-A-Watt knows how to use this $75 power strip, and anyone with a basic understanding of the watts and volts used to power your home should have a decent grasp of what it's doing: At any instant, you can see how many watts are being drawn to light up whatever's plugged in. Tap the Watt button to see the biggest hit taken, as well as the smallest. (You can check voltage and amperage in the same way, though the results there don't tend to get too dramatic.)
The Green Button (That's Not Green)

The most useful reading here is the kilowatt-hour tracker. Knowing that your car can get 32 miles to the gallon—or that it's getting 24 MPG this very second—doesn't help you budget for gasoline. The kWh tracker is like a gas gauge and average MPG tracker in one: By counting kWh over time, you instantly have a number that directly relates to your electric bill. After each billing period, you just jot down the final kWh count, and reset it.


I can imagine this might come in handy in a roommate or rental situation, where disputes over who pays what could be mollified at least in part by Kill-A-Watt's hard data. A fun thing to do is multiply your kWH by your city or state's carbon emission factor. (In 2006, Washington's was 0.5 lbs. per kWh, as opposed to the national average of 1.4 lbs per kWh.) Eventually, you could win a Nobel Prize, or an Oscar (though you'd have to share it with Melissa Etheridge).
Protection in Freaky Power Situations

Power geeks and generally paranoid people will find some subtle tools here that justify the extra expense: There's a "Max Amps" switch that lets you set the point at which the auto-shutoff engages. When it does go into "over current mode," the red light will flash, letting you know that you've had a surge. It also has an "over load mode" that automatically cuts out at 15 Amps, as well as an EMI filter and a self-test.
What's Not Happening Here

I mentioned that there were some problems with this simplicity. There's no way to track a single gadget without removing all the others—and that would mess up a lot of ongoing metering. It's probably easier to plug a standalone Kill-A-Watt into the Kill-A-Watt power strip, to monitor, say, just your TV.
You can't save or export a history in any way, so you are forced to—God forbid!—actually write or type in readings manually. Once you reset the counter, there's no looking back. Obviously, it would be great for there to be a whole energy-tracking computer inside. But then what would you use to monitor its drain on society's precious fluids?

Ekstremno jednostavno rješenje kako otkloniti problem nedovoljnog broja USB utora na računalima dolazi u vidu prolaznog USB kabela za koji već sada predlažemo USB konzorciju da ga proglase obveznim dijelom standarda.

Dakle, kao što je sa slike vidljivo, svaki USB kabel je prolazan i pored toga što vodi komunikaciju do „svog“ USB uređaja, ima i USB utor na koji se može spojiti drugi USB kabel/uređaj i tako u nedogled. Ukoliko se bojite da iz jednoga USB utora veći broj uređaja može povući više struje nego je ovaj može dati, u pravu ste, ali i za to postoji rješenje – prolazni USB kabel s – napajanjem.
