Who Is This Fake iPhone Mini Air Conditioner Going To Fool?

This Poop-Powered Toiletcycle Is Touring Japan

You’re looking at the Toilet Bike Neo. It’s the creation of Japan’s commode-king TOTO and is just what it looks like—a toilet-motorcycle hybrid. That runs on human excrement. Wait, wha?

I hope I never get so old as to require my progeny to buy me an idiot-proofed version of the latest technological innovation—that’d be insulting.

Virtual Reality Goggles for the iPhone Turn 2D Content Into “3D”

Good ol’ Hammacher Schlemmer—they’ve taken one company’s outlandish idea of a virtual reality viewer for the iPhone, and turned it into a $50 contraption nobody will buy. It comes with free 3D downloads and games that “come to life” when the iPhone/iPod Touch is slipped inside the viewer. Just be careful when that great white…

Don’t Put Your iPad Onto a Custom Pillow Because It Makes No Sense at All

Tablets are great, and clutching them is a big heaping part of the fun! But you need a case, because you don’t want your baby slate to crack or scuff or shatter. Put slipping it in a pillow is idiotic. Under what circumstances would this make sense? Are your knees made out of some crumbly…

Why Apple’s Inductive Charging Patent For iPhones Is a Red Herring

Just because a patent’s filed, doesn’t mean the company in question has any ambition to actually make the damn thing. Take Apple’s inductive charger, which proposes wrapping headphones around a charging tower with the earbuds conducting electricity to the iPhone. I shouldn’t have to spell out how ridiculous this idea is. The point to inductive…
