3D Printed House is Ready for the Zombie Apocalypse

PassivDom modulOne
The world of prefab homes is exploding in recent years, so it’s hard to find anything innovative in the field. PassivDom, however, is managing to make a name for itself with their 3D printed house, modulOne, and its series of completely unique add-on packages, including a zombie apocalypse survival kit. That alone is enough to make us want one!

All of the standard prefab amenities are available in their modulOne. It is ready-built, transportable, sustainable, and outfitted with heat, ventilation, air-conditioning, water, and sewage. PassivDom finishes the interior and exterior of each building and their standard model also comes with furniture, appliances, and kitchen utensils. Several buildings can be combined together to create one large home – again, standard in the prefab world. Where PassicDom really shines though, is in the extras.

For starters, the buildings are 3D printed and come with a five-year warranty. Every home is equipped with a house management system that can be accessed through your iPhone or Android. This is typically an add-on with other prefab companies. They also hook up each house with a high-quality surveillance system, also accessible through your phone. With all of this comes one year free mobile internet for the house, something no other prefab company is currently offering. All of this is enough to make PassivDom stand out, and we haven’t even gotten to the add-on packages yet.

Each modulOne can be customized to fit your lifestyle, or paranoia, depending on which package you choose. They offer everything from the “Comfort” package, which includes a fireplace and deck, to the “Tamagotchi” package, which is the ultimate smart house giving you electronic control over every system in the house, including the window blinds and even the humidity level. While these are all impressive, they’re nothing compared to our favorite add-on package: the “Zombie Apocalypse.”

PassivDom outfits their basic 118 square foot home with the latest in security technology, including a GSM-enabled system to guarantee access to emergency services when the zombies finally come. Be alerted to any walking dead intruders on your property with the circular perimeter alarm system. Should the zombies make it past your defenses, the home is equipped with armored glazing – at least they won’t be getting through the windows! And finally, PassivDom thought of the most important item that is always overlooked in every apocalypse movie: toilet paper. Their Zombie Apocalypse add-on comes with extra toilet paper storage so you will never have to resort to using old magazines or dry leaves.

The 12 best Connecticut cigars I’ve tried and tested in 2024
Best Connecticut cigars up close and personal

Connecticut cigars are the clear winner for smoking on a hot summer day, in the morning with some coffee, or when you just don't want a swift kick in the teeth (of pepper). There's no shortage of options, either. Connecticut shade wrappers are one of the most prevalent in the world of cigars, and it's certainly the most common natural shade. Maduro is also popular, but the two wrapper types couldn't be any more different. Connecticut wrappers, and by proxy Connecticut cigars, are typically mild to medium in strength and brimming with creamy, smooth flavors. They're composed of tobacco leaves grown in the Connecticut River Valley in the United States -- which is where the name Connecticut comes from. Consistent and flavorful, some of the best beginner-friendly cigars are Connecticut-wrapped, but you should never sell them short. A Connecticut shade cigar can be just as refined, elegant, and premium as any other. If you know where to look, you may even find some of your favorite blends in the category across a wide range of brands and cigar makers.

I'm about to take you on a magical, doughy, and delicious trek through the broad range of Connecticut cigars. In short, here are the best Connecticut cigars tried and tested by a genuine enthusiast of the craft: yours truly.
The best Connecticut cigars I've tried and tested
While the Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper is considered a Connecticut shade, I did my best to steer clear of recommending them for this list. They're better classified as a Maduro shade or darker cigar. That doesn't mean you should avoid them, quite the contrary. But for this list, I wanted to stick to smooth, relaxing smokes that are strong on flavor but not quite so strong on pepper and spice. I also tried not to choose a lot of repeats. If you see your favorite cigar missing, that might be because it was recommended on another list or it just didn't make the cut. If you have any recommendations of your own, I'm always available through social media or email. Without further ado, let's get this thing started.

The era of password sharing is slowly but surely coming to an end. Netflix has already begun cracking down on people sharing passwords across households, and now, other streaming services are following suit. Before 2024 is over, Disney Plus password sharing will be a thing of the past.

Disney's streaming services are now preparing to crack down on those who are sharing passwords, and the consequences for doing so could be severe. Users across Hulu, Disney Plus, and ESPN Plus will be warned about password sharing, and if they don't Disney CEO Bob Iger even laid out a timeline for when the crackdown will start, although he didn't get into too many specifics.
