Interior Design Project: Kopi Hub, Korat - This interior design project for Kopi Hub, Korat, is inspired by the concept of "Mud-Mai" (Thai silk weaving), a cultural hallmark of Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand. The design harmonizes the main building with the interior spaces, which are divided into three distinct zones:Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Zone 1: Reception and Seating Area - This zone is arranged within a circular space, allowing customers to enjoy the surrounding garden views. A large red backdrop, designed with a modern reinterpretation of the Mud-Mai pattern, incorporates red silk threads that represent the signature color of the Kopi Hub brand. The centerpiece of this area is a large infinity-shaped chandelier, symbolizing the fluidity and elegance of silk weaving.Save this picture!Save this picture!Zone 2: Seating Area and Open Void - This area features an open void with a vertical garden and a koi fish pond in the center, creating a refreshing ambiance. Customers seated here can enjoy views of the gardens on both sides. Additionally, a playful detail of "Si Sawat Cats" (a local symbol of Korat) is incorporated into a large painted mural, adding a touch of local identity.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Zone 3: Semi-Outdoor Seating and Patongko booth - Designed to immerse customers in the outdoor garden atmosphere, this zone features seating arranged along the curved lines of the building and garden. Partitions, inspired by the Mud-Mai pattern, serve both as decorative elements and functional dividers, including for the VIP room. This Kopi Hub branch is envisioned as a unique breakfast destination that offers customers a refreshing and culturally enriched dining experience.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Nai Mueang, ThailandLocation to be used only as a reference.

Without the repercussions of real life, being placed into the shoes of a bad guy in a video game can be a great way to go wild and let off some steam. Playing the virtuous hero who saves the day game after game can get stale pretty quickly, after all, so it's always interesting when a game lets the player take control of the villain instead.

Chadwick Boseman left behind an incredible legacy for himself due to the career he put together, but playing the part of T'Challa is what he's best known for. He was the lead actor in the original Black Panther movie, and his performance helped make that a success. However, there have now been reports that Marvel is considering recasting the character moving forward in Black Panther.

The Apothecary Diaries was one of the biggest surprises in 2024. On paper, a slice-of-life story about the life of a maid in the inner court of ancient Chinas Imperial Palace sounds quite dull. However, that statement couldnt be further from the truth. This series manages to weave politics, mystery, drama, deceptions, betrayals, assassination attempts, and detective works into a highly engaging story.

You can publish your game using localhost, a tunnel, and splattersocial, where you can showcase your games created on splattersocial.com. You can check out the tutorial; although it's in Spanish, it's easy to understand. Here it is :

Forget foldable phones: Lenovos got a rollable laptop. First revealed as a concept two years ago, the device is finally making its way to market, although with a decidedly uncatchy namethe ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable.The idea here is that you can get some extra screen space without needing to carry around a secondary display or buy a device with multiple screens, like the Asus Zenbook Duo. Instead, the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable will fit in your bag like any normal 14-inch laptop would, but if you press a dedicated key or signal your webcam with a special gesture, its motorized screen will roll up to reveal 50% additional screen space. Credit: Michelle Ehrhardt Thats possible thanks to the OLED panel, since OLED actually has a side benefit beyond its excellent contrastits far more flexible than other display technologies. Thats why you can get folding phones, although this scroll-like device is far bigger than the more pocketable flexible OLEDs youre probably used to. When fully unfurled, the display reaches 16.7-inches, so while youre not exactly doubling your resolution here, the expanded vertical room should be great for coders or people who might need a reference document up while working. You could also take meetings in the upper part of your screen while taking notes in the lower part, and your webcam will actually be a little higher up when the screen is at its full length, which could bring it closer to your face. Credit: Michelle Ehrhardt Aside from the screen, which also tops out at 120Hz for smooth input, the ThinkBook Plus Gen 6 Rollable seems to be a fairly typical Copilot+ Windows productivity PC. CPUs are available up to Intel Core Ultra 7 while memory tops out at 32GB and storage can be configured up to 1TB. There are two Thunderbolt 4 ports as well as a fingerprint reader, but sadly, only one color option. Theres also no dedicated GPU.Given those specs, the starting price point of $3,500 might be a bit rich for my blood, but as someone whos desperately missing my home setups secondary monitor while writing all these CES articles from my hotel room, I see the vision.

Ever since it kicked off a renewed interest in handheld PC gaming in 2022, the Steam Deck has been my go-to recommendation for anyone with even a passing interest in taking their PC games on the go. It now has plenty of competition, some with better chips and some with better screens, but none have matched the convenience of Valves SteamOS operating systemuntil now.The Lenovo Legion Go S runs SteamOSWhile most Steam Deck competitors use Windows, Lenovo announced during this years CES that its new Lenovo Legion Go S will be the first PC handheld not from Valve to offer SteamOS at launch. That means itll have a dedicated Steam button, easy access to Steams store and your Steam Library (although it can still play games from other stores), immediate remote play functionality, and, perhaps my favorite feature, Valves unmatched quick menu support (for adjusting everything from brightness to power consumption).SteamOS is also a bit more lightweight than Windows, so games could theoretically run better. Although, since it is based on Linux, some games will face limited compatibility.Still, the tradeoff is well worth it to me. The Proton tech SteamOS uses to help Windows games run on Linux has been generally reliable across my library, even with games that are supposed to have issues, and SteamOS is much easier to navigate with a controller than Windows.That said, the Legion Go S will have a Windows version as well, which will accommodate anyone who needs to play a game with anti-cheat, since those have difficulties running on SteamOS.Sadly, it's limited to white, while the SteamOS version comes in what looks like black to me, but Lenovo assures me it's a type of purple. Credit: Michelle Ehrhardt Legion Go S vs. Steam DeckSo, why get the Legion Go S over a Steam Deck?Primarily, the chip and the screen.The Steam Deck is still an impressive bit of kit for its starting price point of $400 (or cheaper when buying refurbished), but its getting a little long in the tooth when it comes to performance and visuals. The more expensive OLED upgrade can help a little bit with the latter, but the Legion Go S is generally more modern, and more akin to other competitors like the Asus ROG Ally.While Ive previously been skeptical about these competitors due to their lack of SteamOS, the Legion Go S promises the best of both worldsmodern hardware and Valves convenient software. Lets start with the chip: over the base Steam Deck, it has either the existing AMD Z1 Extreme processor or the new, exclusive AMD Z2 Go processor.The Z1 Extreme has already proven itself in devices like the aforementioned Asus ROG Ally, putting out a dozen or so extra frames over the Steam Deck in the latest AAA games, while the as-yet-unreleased Z2 Go seems to be a more modest improvement over the custom AMD Steam Deck chip. According to AMDs CES press conference yesterday, you can expect the Z2 Go to have roughly the same compute core count as the Steam Decks chip, but with a higher clock speed, the ability to use up to 30W of power, and four extra graphics cores. Both should perform better than the Steam Deck, although the latter will certainly be a little cheaper.That extra performance plays into the other reason to upgrade: the improved screen. While the Steam Deck tops out at an 800p OLED panel with a 90Hz refresh rate, the Legion Go S has a higher resolution 1920 x 1200 panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. It is LCD, so youll lose out on the crisp OLED color contrast, but if youre like me and still running a Steam Deck LCD rather than the newer Steam Deck OLED, itll be a definitive upgrade. If you do have the OLED, itll largely be a matter of whether you prefer fidelity or speed. The Legion Go S will be able to show a higher frame per second count (hence the need for extra performance), but the Steam Deck OLED will probably have better colors, even if it has a slightly lower resolution. Credit: Michelle Ehrhardt You can configure the RAM to be twice as high as any Steam Deck, which should help make the handheld smoother to use. The remaining factors, then, are a matter of comfort and looks.The Legion Go S is a little thinner and lighter than the Steam Deck, and also marks an overhaul on the first Legion Go design, ditching the detachable controllers for a singular body. The right-hand touchpad from the first Legion Go is also still there, albeit smaller, although it doesn't have the dual touchpad setup that the Steam Deck has. On the plus side, it does have an extra USB-C port that the Steam Deck doesnt, as well as a slightly larger battery and optional trigger stops for a shorter pull.All of that makes for a compelling combo for me: the first device to really tempt me away from the Steam Deck since I got it. Youll want to wait for reviews to make a final decision, but Lenovo has put itself in a comfortable position here, especially with the Legion Go S price.PricingThe Legion Go S Powered by Steam, which is the model that runs SteamOS, will launch in May starting for $500. That will get you a Z2 Go processor, 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. Meanwhile, a 512GB Steam Deck OLED is $50 more expensive, at $550. Upgrades to storage and RAM will also be available, which also brings me to the Windows version of the device.The Windows Legion Go S is actually getting a head start out the door, launching this month for $730. It comes with the Z2 Go processor, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. Thats a lot to pay for some extra memory and storage, so it should put you at ease to know a Windows model thats otherwise identical to the SteamOS version will also drop in May for $600, alongside additional upgrade options for both models. Those upgrades will include models with the Z1 Extreme chip, although specs for those configurations aren't fully available yet. Credit: Lenovo Note that Lenovo isnt considering the Legion Go S a full-on next-generation version of its existing Legion handheld. That would be the Legion Go 2, which is also at this years CES, but in a prototype stage. The latter is set to ship with the new Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor, an OLED screen, a new finish, and a fingerprint reader. Theres still no word on pricing or whether it'll include SteamOS, but Lenovo did tell me that it's aiming to ship within 2025. Fans of the first version can also rest easy knowing that the detachable controllers are still there, too.

This summer, I tested most of the smart grills on the market, but one rose above the rest: the Brisk It Origin. It turned me from a very occasional griller into a barbecue enthusiast by removing every pain of outdoor cooking. Somehow, Brisk It has topped itself at CES this year, introducing a new grill, the Zelos, which brings the same hardware to the market at a more affordable price. Moreover, the Zelos carries the second generation of the AI engine that makes Brisk It great: Vera 2.0.Brisk It grills are powered by wood pellets, so they have the ability to smoke your food with exceptional precision, but also cook your food at higher temperatures if youre looking for more of a true grill experience without as much smoke. You load the grill hopper with pellets, which is a lot like like any other smoker on the market, and an auger inside the hopper feeds the grill. You can operate the grill two ways: manually, from the display on the grill itself, or from the app. Youll likely end up doing a mixture of both as you get more comfortable with the grill, but Ill say this: Regardless of which method I used, the Origin has lit every single time Ive pushed the button this year, easily 50-60 times. I expect the same from the Zelos. There is also a certain amount of giddiness one gets while being able to light a grill from the couch via the app.While most AI-powered cooking devices have apps with recipe generation and cook-time suggestions, youll actually use the advice that the Brisk It app gives you. It offers an impressively deep recipe bank, so youre likely to get a hit on any barbecue recipe youre looking for, and then it tells you precisely how to prep it, and regardless of whether you took that advice or not, will perfectly cook it for you. You choose the recipe, and send it to the grill. The grill will tell you when to put the food on, you insert a temperature probe, and walk away. The grill will execute the perfect smoke or grilling program, raising temperatures when appropriate, injecting higher smoke, and telling you when to flip the food or when to take it off. It will even turn itself off.So, how could Brisk It get better? Vera 2.0 allows you to take snapshots of your ingredients on the phone and Vera will identify the ingredients and then suggest recipes, and, of course, the perfect way to cook them. Snap a picture of the contents of your fridge, grocery cart, or pantry. It even claims you can take a picture of cooked food you enjoy, and Vera will try to give you a recipe for it (Id need to test this to believe it; it feels like the sort of AI promise that often fails).Perhaps more importantly, the Zelos is made to be more affordable than the Origin, which, though currently are on sale, are regularly priced at $849 and $1,099. The Zelos promises to be $399, which is dramatically cheaper, but from the looks of it, doesnt sacrifice much on the build of the grill itself. It still looks solid, and I actually might prefer the placement of the display on the Zelos than on the Origin (it looks to be placed much lower on the hopper).I called my Brisk It one of my favorite pieces of smart tech this yearit's one of those unique pieces of hardware technology that lives up to the hype. Whether you are a confident cook or easily intimidated, great tech like the Brisk It can make you more competent at babecuing.The Zelos will be available for purchase in the next few months online at Amazon, Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, and BriskItGrills.com

Blue Origins New Glenn rocket is ready for liftoff. After some weather-related delays over the weekend, the Jeff Bezos-owned space company said that the $2.5 billion reusable rocket, which has been in development for nearly 13 years, will target its first launch no earlier than Monday, January 13. Its three-hour launch window kicks off at 1AM ET. The webcast will begin an hour before launch, and you can watch New Glenn take flight on Blue Origins website, X or the companys YouTube channel.New Glenns inaugural mission (NG-1) will serve as its first Space Force national security certification flight, necessary to compete against the likes of SpaceX for Department of Defense and national intelligence contracts. Its reusable first stage is designed for at least 25 flights. Blue Origin has several New Glenn vehicles in production.The Blue Ring PathfinderBlue OriginBlue Origin describes New Glenn as our giant, reusable rocket built for bigger things. The giant bit is apt: The rocket stands over 320 ft (98 m) high. As for its bigger things, that includes the metaphorical (like potential missions to Mars) and literal: It can carry over 45 metric tons to low Earth orbit (LEO) and 13 to geostationary transfer orbit (GTO). By comparison, rival SpaceXs Falcon Heavy can lift nearly 64 metric tons to LEO and almost 27 to GTO orbit.On its maiden voyage, New Glenn will carry a prototype of the companys multipurpose Blue Ring Pathfinder. The craft is designed to transport, refuel and host satellites and other spacecraft and can carry three metric tons of cargo into space. Fridays launch will test Blue Rings core flight / ground systems and operational capabilities.Blue OriginAfter New Glenn lifts off from Launch Complex 36 in Cape Canaveral, its reusable first stage will land on a barge, Jacklyn, floating several hundred miles away in the Atlantic Ocean.New Glenn, named after pioneering astronaut John Glenn, completed its first launch countdown dress rehearsal on December 27. After several countdown attempts over a few hours, the rockets seven BE-4 engines ignited and fired for 24 seconds (spending 13 seconds at 100 percent thrust), paving the way for Fridays targeted launch. The rockets first flight was initially slated for October, carrying two Mars-bound NASA satellites, but the launch was scrapped because it wouldnt be ready by then.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/science/space/how-to-watch-blue-origins-inaugural-new-glenn-launch-013009830.html?src=rss
