A couple of months ago, we took a VanMoof electric-bike for a test ride in Paris. While there are a ton of electric-bikes in the streets of Paris, the VanMoof Electrified X2 looks like no other. The frame is a single piece of aluminum that looks futuristic. On the handlebar, you’re not going to find any speed as the bike has an integrated automatic speed hub — motor assistance kicks in automatically when you need it the most. And when you press the boost button, you get an extra burst of acceleration.

    It’s sad that you had to speak in English; French would have sounded more authentic and less forced. Subtitles can always be enabled.

    Plus, you avoid errors like 01:56 – “top shelf” (at least in British English) refers to adult material, so-called because placing it on the highest shelf in a newsagent’s shop was supposed to be out of the reach and eyeline of children.

Earlier this month, we hit up Open Sauce in San Francisco, CA to see some of the coolest inventions, panels and innovations from around the world.

The event is the brainchild of YouTuber William Osman and was created as a “celebration of makers and creators”— a kind of VidCon for the STEM set meets Science Fair. While many exhibitors and panelists were professional content creators and scientists, we saw plenty of students and amateur enthusiasts sharing their creations just for the sake of science.

Looking forward to next year! Which was your favorite project? #science #makers #stem #opensauce #creators #robotics #ai #makerfaire

The Motorola Razr Plus and Razr are back for 2024! The Chicago-based company took last year’s models another step farther with new colors and finishes, upgraded cameras, Moto AI and Google Gemini. Motorola announced the phones along with new cases with straps that let you wear them across your body or with pearls and gold on your wrist. Perhaps the biggest surprise is a new Bluetooth tracker called the Moto Tag that works on Google’s Find My Device network, supports ultra wideband and has a couple of nifty features that other Bluetooth trackers should adopt.
