Hackers try to extort survey firm QuestionPro after alleged data theft
This LEGO G-Shock Mudmaster looks just about as realistic as the original
It’s proportionally accurate, has a stunningly realistic dial, and can even be worn on your wrist. The LEGO G-Shock Mudmaster comes with a display stand and even has a set of interchangeable straps, all made out of LEGO bricks. In fact, the only thing this timepiece can’t do is tell the time… but then again, is it even supposed to?!
Modeled after a timepiece from one of the most iconic rugged wristwatch brands, this G-Shock Mudmaster will most likely fool you into thinking it’s the real deal. You see, the LEGO brick’s inherent chunky, blocky design lends exceptionally well to the G-Shock’s rugged brand language. The design comes from the mind of LEGO Builder Pedro Jimenez, who submitted this concept to the LEGO Ideas forum where it’s currently racking up votes in a bid to turn the one-off build into a readily available LEGO box set.
Designer: Pedro Jimenez
The LEGO G-Shock Mudmaster is unshakeable proof that with just the right LEGO bricks, you can build just about anything, from a functioning orrery to even a lawnmower. Although Pedro hasn’t specified how many bricks it takes to build the Mudmaster, it looks fairly complicated compared to average LEGO builds and even comes with a glass cover, a realistic dial with hands, a digital screen sitting at the 6 o’clock position, and all the text and branding needed to convince even the toughest of critics.
Along with the watch, Pedro even built out a plastic stand that lets you put your timepiece on full display. From afar, it’s practically indistinguishable from the real deal!
At just over 1000 votes, Pedro is slowly inching towards the 10K vote margin required for LEGO to consider the fan-made build for retail. To be honest, this is one of the more impressive LEGO MOCs (My Own Creation) I’ve ever seen. It isn’t often that you come across something so stunningly realistic. I mean, the watch even comes with its own set of replaceable straps! (and for all intents and purposes, this one is probably insanely waterproof too…)

- These low-cost solar-powered homes in Sweden are the energy efficient housing solution we need in 2022
These low-cost solar-powered homes in Sweden are the energy efficient housing solution we need in 2022
On a street in Örebro, Sweden, you’ll find a set of ten solar-powered rowhouses, each placed artfully against the other, creating a quaint L-shaped development of zero-energy affordable homes. Designed by Street Monkey Architects, the homes make use of passive building principles and photovoltaic panels to generate all the energy they would require to function all year long. Also, the intriguing roofline of the development instantly caught our eyes – besides its solar-power generating capabilities.
Designer: Street Monkey Architects
Adequately insulated, nearly airtight, and amped with ventilation systems that retain a generous amount of heat, the row of homes is not only well-equipped but also showcases certain variations and differences in its exterior. For example – the homes on the east-west side feature a stunning sawtooth roofline and are pitched at an angle to capture as much sunlight as possible. They also feature white plaster facades. Whereas, the homes on the north-south side feature silver facades, and wooden slats to further accentuate the visual variation. This creates a melange of homes that are visually interesting to look at, and manage to contrast one another in a harmonious manner. It also provides residents with a sense of identity and reassures them that their home has its own individual character and unique personality.
The two-story, 1600-square-foot homes are almost completely solar powered, and the unused energy is stored in on-site batteries, which are later sold back to the grid. They arrive in the form of six modules with finished interiors. They are later erected and connected together, producing a smooth development of homes, that effortlessly transition from one unit to another.
The interiors are beautiful, open, and spacious. An airy aura radiates throughout the homes, with a kitchen on the ground floor opening to the dining room, which in turn leads to the living room. Two sets of glass doors in the living room, give you access to a terrace, which acts as a natural extension of the living room.
Steels stairs are supported by vertical wires, creating a suspended staircase, which leads you to three bedrooms, a bathroom, and a family room on the upper level.
The family room is one of my favorite spaces – a warm and minimal area with natural wooden floors and white walls – a great place to relax and connect with your loved ones.
These solar homes are not only spacious, inviting, and exquisitely designed, but they’re also quite affordable. These are the kind of modern and energy-efficient housing solutions we need in 2022!
