What Are These Guys Looking At?

These aren’t teens crowded around a laptop in a dorm. This is the President of the United States and his staffers crowded around a laptop on board Air Force One. We don’t know what’s on the screen. Guesses? Update: Woah-we-do-know-what’s-on-the-screen! I like to think that they’re figuring out how to set up a soccer ball…

Elephant-Subduing Device Appears Inspired by Star Wars

Angry elephants are a big issue. That’s why someone invented a remote-controlled device that shoots out nylon rope and binds rampaging elephants’ legs. Sounds familiar somehow. How’d those snow speeders in Star Wars subdue the ATATs again? The device is called the Violent Elephant Control Gear and is basically a seven kilogram box that attaches…

The RTS web game Zombie Outbreak Simulator plops you down into a Google Maps-provided area of DC swarming with zombies. The outbreak’s details are up to you: How many civilians? Are they armed? It’s a killer timewaster (GET IT?). Basically, it’s a zombie invasion in our nation’s capital. You can change the details of the…

“Uffizi in a Touch” Brings Cover Flow to Renaissance Masterpieces

The central guideline of museum going has long been “do not touch.” Soon, the Uffizi will flip that rule on its head by allowing visitors to flick and pinch their way through the museum’s works of art. The Uffizi Galley, a museum in Florence boasting one of the world’s most famous collections of Renaissance art,…

Girl Smashes Her Boyfriend’s Xbox 360, Clearly in a Great Relationship

Nothing says “functional relationship” like destroying someone’s property rather than talking things out. I’d like to think this is fake, but this girl has a whole bunch of other videos where she’s equally horrible. She’s not worth it, buddy.

How To Reattach A Severed Robot Head

Rutger Hauer finds a severed robot head on the ground, and helps it get a new body, in this hilariously unconvincing sequence from Omega Doom. Too bad Robot Blade was using that head as a soccer ball… and he’s pissed.

DIY Laptop Etch-A-Sketch is Almost Worth Destroying a Hard Drive

I think my hard drive flinched in fear when I pulled up these instructions for turning a laptop into an Etch-A-Sketch. How could it not when the project is a freakin’ awesome Arduino-powered Hack-A-Sketch that you actually shake to erase. The shake-to-erase action works because of a hidden mercury switch which detects movement and you…

According to Apple It’s Your Own Fault if You Catch an iPhone Worm

We’ve told you over and over again that you need to secure your jailbroken iPhone. If you still haven’t listened and were affected by the latest iPhone worm then it is kinda your own fault.

Wind-Sensitive LED Dandelion Dress Is Made for Pretty Night Fairies

I like this dress embroidered with dandelion lights. Called Flare, it was created by designer Stijn Ossevoort. The LED flowers glow up gently when the wind or your breath touches them, causing much swooning and sighing in the process. Less spectacular than the Galaxy Dress, but classier.
