Wood Kubb, a PC in a tiny wooden block

One look at this computer and you'll understand why minimalist enthusiasts lust for this piece developed by French company Bleujour. It's name is Wood Kubb, and it looks like nothing but a single block of wood. This stylish, hand-crafted PC measures just under 5 inches tall, but despite its ultra-compact form still has full-size specs.

The Kubb, which comes in Linux and Windows 10 variants, has an i3 or i5 CPU, SSD storage, up to 16GB of RAM, and Intel HD onboard graphics. It has all the usual connections, too, including four USB ports, a MiniDP, mini-HDMI and WiDi that lets you connect a screen wirelessly. It doesn't come with a monitor, keyboard, or mouse, but don't worry, there are lots of wooden computer accessories that you can buy online.

Bleujour has been making cubical computers for a while now, but they're seeking help on Kickstarter to launch a sleek wooden version. The Kubb comes in three different types of wood/colors with options of white ash, brown ash and elm. Prices start at 459 euros for the early bird, with the standard retail price set at 795 euros.

Also, the dramatic tension I remembered as nail-biting was now… well, a little slow-paced. But the truly entertaining part of rewatching a movie is that you notice things you never did before. For example, in Midnight Cowboy , I didn't know that the guy who gave Joe Buck (Jon Voight) a blow job was played by Bob Balaban, who later became known for his role as Russell Dalrymple, the fictional president of NBC in Seinfeld . Released in 1969, Midnight Cowboy is a raw, sometimes uncomfortable, often heartbreaking, but ultimately deeply human. And seriously, the chemistry between Ratso Rizzo (Dustin Hoffman) and Buck is pure gold. Rewatching a movie is like visiting an old friend. You know their idiosyncrasies, their stories, bu...

So, have you given Chloe Qisha a listen yet?

What I love about the Malaysian-born singer-songwriter is her knack for crafting those sad/happy songs – music that makes you want to cry and hit the dance floor at the same time. Chloe writes about love, anxiety, and self-acceptance with such wit and honesty. Her beauty is also undeniable – a perfect blend of modern allure and timeless Asian elegance. Her looks shine through with such grace and an effortlessly cool confidence. Here is my favorite.
