Making your body great again!

Notice the shape of the time-capsule. It’s literally capsule shaped! Designed to be a skin-body recovery chamber, the time-capsule is an integrated solution to making you healthy! Time Capsule’s USP is that it’s a complete solution, rather than being a range of products that you separately purchase. It has three primary functions. A Cycling diet programme, a body recovery massage, and an oxygen therapy function. All three work at rejuvenating your skin as well as healing you from the inside, so that you look better, and feel better! This would be perfect for a futuristic Spa, wouldn’t it??

The Time Capsule is a winner of the Red Dot Design Award for the year 2015.

Designers: Seo Jinhee & Lee Taeyong (Bodyfriend)

Left Behind: DNA Time Capsule for the Immortal in You

If you’ve ever dreamed about being able to live forever – at least, in a sense – then you’ve probably thought of or read about a dozen ways to make that happen. From having your ashes pressed into a diamond, to becoming a part of a coral reef, these are just two wacky ways to immortalize yourself – kind of. Now there’s yet another way to prolong that persona: the DNA Time Capsule. Preserving your DNA for up to 100 years, this isn’t just an ego-booster. It can potentially help your grandkids by telling future doctors what they’re genetically susceptible to, or help with screening for certain cancers. You can even display it on your mantle as a showpiece until it’s time to finally use it! Or why not use it as a gift idea for a senior friend or relative? It’s priced at $300 – cheap, considering that it preserves a part of you for over a century.

Steve Jobs Time Capsule Episode of Diggers to Air February 25

Posted on by

You might recall back in September of last year when we mentioned that a time capsule buried in Aspen, Colorado back in 1983 had been discovered. The time capsule was originally supposed to be unearthed in 2000, but no one could find it. The cast and crew from the TV show called Diggers set about trying to locate the time capsule and were successful.

The episode of the show with what has come to be known as the Steve Jobs Time Capsule will air on February 25 on the National Geographic Channel. In case you forgot, the capsule was buried as part of the International Design Conference in 1983. Jobs was on hand at the show and tossed the mouse from his Lisa computer into the capsule.

The people who dug the capsule up say that there was a strong smell of mold inside indicating that some damage likely occurred to the content. The good news is that the Lisa mouse and other items had been sealed in a plastic bag.

I wonder what sort of other items were found inside.

Steve Jobs’ Time Capsule Recovered: The Ultimate Backup Device

Posted on by

I really don’t care for those reality TV shows where people walk around with metal detectors looking for junk. Most of them end up turning up crappy old coins and cans. But I have to show props to the guys on NatGeo’s Diggers for digging up something epic for once. They managed to find a long lost time capsule buried with stuff from Steve Jobs way back in 1983.

Jobs and other attendees filled the 30-foot-long time capsule with all sorts of stuff after the International Design Conference in Aspen, Colorado some 30 years ago. Most notable among their contributions was Steve Jobs’ mouse from an Apple Lisa he used for the day’s presentation – which apparently is still in mint condition. Bet that’ll fetch some serious buckage at auction.

Despite being known as the “Steve Jobs Time Capsule,” there were many other contributors to the capsule, then known as the Aspen Time Tube. Among them there’s an original Rubik’s Cube, a six pack of Ballantine Ale, some name tags, and a Moody Blues 8-track tape. I’m not sure what the deal is with all the aluminum foil pie tins though.

While they haven’t released images of everything inside, I’m sure you’ll be able to see everything they found in the capsule on an upcoming episode of Diggers on the National Geographic Channel.

Apple’s newest AirPort Extreme base station gets dissected

Apple's newest AirPort Extreme base station gets dissected

The skyscraper? The hauteur router? The dapper WAP? All reasonable nicknames were considered, but in the end, Apple's sticking with "AirPort Extreme." The newest base station -- the one introduced alongside the company's Haswell-infused MacBook Air at WWDC -- takes on a new look and gains 802.11ac support, but that's not what you're here for. You're here for two reasons: first, you want to see this thing reverse engineered, and second, you want to get an idea of just how repairable it is. The gurus over at iFixit have done their usual teardown, offering up a plethora of lovely JPGs and settling on a respectable 8 out of 10 on the Repairability Index. Eager to learn more? Give that source link below a soft tap... with the key word being soft.
