SimpliSafe Home Security
Cameras, smart locks, entry and motion sensors — the Simplisafe Home Security System keeps you covered the inside out. Its collection of devices doesn't just alert you of an intruder, they also have 24/7 Professional Monitoring that contacts to the police. They provide eyewitness accounts including the invader's whereabouts, if they're armed, and what they're up to, so the police can dispatch faster than a non-verified alarm. But their security isn't only about intruders. The system can also protect your home from other threats like fires, carbon monoxide, and water damage.
As seen in Uncrate Issue 04.

Miraculously, they've managed to do all of this while maintaining the sweet, satisfying flavors from your childhood. Now available in Peanut Butter and Honey Nut.

Ghostbusters Zoom Reunion
It's been just over three decades since we saw the Ghostbusters on the same screen — albeit this time a smaller one. Josh Gad brought the original cast of the '80s classic back together for a video chat, with everyone from Bill Murray and Sigourney Weaver to Ernie Hudson and even Rick Moranis — and Harold Ramis in spirit.
Star Wars: Squadrons
Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance and Rogue Squadron were released over 20 years ago, and true fans of the series were left with nothing but add-on game modes to scratch that dogfighting itch that's arguably the best part of Star Wars. But now the wait is over, with EA releasing Star Wars: Squadrons this fall for the first standalone starfighter combat game in a long while.

FORME Life Fitness Mirror
While it looks like a sleek, full-length mirror, beyond the reflective surface is a complete personal strength studio. Created by Swiss Designer Yves Béhar and entrepreneur Trent Ward, the FORME Life comes in two modes — a Screen-Only Studio and a Full Studio with resistance pulleys that fold away from sight when not in use. Both versions feature a diverse library of body and mind exercises to suit every individual training style and need. To ensure you get the most out of every workout, machine learning and AI technology track your progress and adjust the intensity or increase weights as your fitness levels improve, while stereoscopic two-way cameras and human-centric computer vision keep your form and technique in check. The device is expected to ship this fall and you can secure your place in line with a pre-order in the meantime.

Dave Chappelle: 8:46
Dave Chappelle has dropped an impromptu new special. Filmed during a live show in Yellow Springs, Ohio, the title is a reference to the amount of time Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin kneeled on George Floyd's neck. While the comedian does land a few jokes, the 27-minute set does convey the seriousness of police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. 8:46 was released for free on Netflix's YouTube channel to help spread the message.
