Geek Toolkit Has Wee Bits for Just About Every Kind of Screw There is

The 54 Bit Driver Kit by iFixit covers most bases for the modern geek. Not only does it have conventional hex bits and flat head and Phillips head screwdriver bits, it also has pentalobe, JIS, torx, torx security, square, triangle, and tri-wing. All in the multitude of tiny, wee little sizes needed to open up iPhones, MacBooks, and all kinds of electronic devices requiring wee little screws.

When I worked at the Apple Store, we used a lot of iFixit tools in the Genius Room – they are nice little tools. High quality, and precision machined.

You Can Help Launch a Leonard Nimoy Documentary & Be a Part of Geek History ForEVAR

weespockWhether you’re a Trekkie or a Trekker, we all miss the late Leonard Nimoy. His son, Adam Nimoy, is trying to launch an documentary showing a more intimate view of his father than fans would otherwise have access to. Fellow geeks and Trekkies, we can make this a reality. Adam Nimoy is trying to raise $600K to get this project off the ground and geek support will not only help make that happen, but also makes for a proof of need. The Trekkie community wants this, they will watch it, and they will buy DVDs and bask in the geeky glow that is the Spock of the ages.

The project, For the Love of Spock, is now on Kickstarter and has just over 3 weeks to go. The project was originally supposed to be a tribute to Spock, the character, but since Leonard Nimoy’s passing, son Adam wishes to incorporate more footage of his father the person as well – not just his most famous role as Spock.

While you can chip in for just $5, a mere $50 (a lot less than you’ve ever spent at a Star Trek convention!) will get your name on the credits. ForEVAR! So live long and prosper, my fellow geeks and Trekkies. It’s time to launch this documentary where no film has gone before.
