“I don’t like talking to you wearing that. It’s intimidating.”A friend said this to me—and he’s not joking. His name is Stuart. Stuart is about as affable a person as you could wish to meet, and we have skied together three or four times. Now, however, he doesn’t want anything to do with me. I haven’t upset him, we are on good terms—but he hates what I’ve got on my head. By the end of the week, so do I.The intimidating headgear I’m wearing is the Ruroc RG2. It is, according to Ruroc, the world’s only full-face snowsports helmet—and now…

Officially called the ThinkBook Modular AI PC Concept, the proof-of-concept is a 14-inch productivity machine with two plug-and-play interchangeable ports and a second 14-inch display magnetically attached to the rear of its lid. The second display is removable, and can be propped up on a magnetic kickstand (stored under the laptop) and plugged in via USB-C.But this concept PC has one more trick: removing the keyboard / trackpad deck and replacing it with the second screen, turning the whole thing into a dual-screen laptop…

It’s always the “small stories” that shape Arthur Arbesser’s work. He doesn’t set out to make garments for their own sake; he wants to tell stories. Growing up in Vienna, his next-door neighbor had been one of the most important Austrian artists of the 20 century. “Maria Lassnig was born in 1919 and came of age at a time when women had to fight to be recognized as painters,” the designer recalled. “Her studio was next to our home, and it was remarkable to see how her clothing distinguished her from the everyday life of Viennese women.”As a boy, he…

Do you like having a second screen with your computer setup? What if your laptop could carry a second screen for you? That’s the idea behind Lenovo’s latest proof of concept, the ThinkBook Modular AI PC, announced at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.Lenovo is never shy to show off wacky, weird concept laptops. We’ve seen a PC with a transparent screen, one with a rollable OLED screen, a swiveling screen, and another with a flippy screen. At CES earlier this year, the company showed off a gaming laptop with a display that expands at the push of a button. Sometimes,…

When you get as many things going wrong as there are right now, you do not think about opportunity; you think about safety. I get that. We have the most uncertain of times in the Mideast after the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran this weekend. We have a man-made inflationary event — the closing of the world’s chief oil artery, the Strait of Hormuz. The skyrocketing of oil prices will make it so the Federal Reserve can’t help us, even under President Donald Trump ‘s soon-to-be Fed chairman, Kevin Warsh. We are no longer in the “canary in the coal…
