I don’t know how many times I’ve dreamt of having my very own graffiti covered metal dumpster on my desk. Wait, yes I do know how many times I’ve had that dream. Zero. I’ve dreamt about miniature dumpsters exactly zero times. But now that I know that tiny dumpsters exist, I can make that future

I’ve been fascinated with Porsche’s 911 sports car since I was old enough to even think about driving. I even owned a scale die cast model in midnight black. So when I saw that Porsche had designed a soundbar using parts from a 911 you can bet it piqued my interest. I never could afford that
I like accessories that have more than one use or can be used with more than one device. The new Satechi R1 Aluminum foldable stand is just such an accessory. Compatible with smartphones, tablets, and even laptops. This universal stand can position devices in multiple ways to provide the best viewing experience for watching videos,
