Ever since I got a laptop, I can’t use a mouse anymore. It feels so foreign to have the damn thing so far away from the keyboard, you know? Like if you were eating a burger but the fries were across the table. Or if you were having a drink but your friends were across…

Creating This Laser Cut Paper Eiffel Tower By Hand Would Probably Kill You

My wife and I are fortunate in that we’ve been handed down many items from family members that have a long history in our families, and I was wondering which one to try and shoot. In terms of sheer emotional attachment, though, it was hard to move past the ring I’ve photographed here. This is…

Shooting Gallery Challenge: Heirloom III

This is a 1920’s Ludwig Thumb Rod snare drum given to me as a Christmas present, by a girl I really liked in high school. She found it as a bag of parts, labeled as “tambourine” in an antique store. Turns out all the parts were present, and it sounds great. Me and my dad…

Watch a Girl Use Just a Basketball to Paint a Portrait of Yao Ming

I like that balls with baskets game very much and enjoy the hell out of Yao Ming, so it’s no surprise that I really like this picture of Yao Ming miraculously painted with JUST a basketball. That’s it! No brushes, no nothing. Just a basketball dipped in red paint, a few swipes and a lot…

Kazakhstan’s Glorious Brand New Metro Is the Only Clean Subway You’ll See

Kazakhstan isn’t the first country I’d associate with modernism and gleaming infrastructure, but according to photos from English Russia, I’m dead wrong: the Almaty Metro is gorgeous. And, shocking to any urbanite, gorgeously clean, like Star Trek with more maids. The project—which only opened last month—took 23 years to construct, starting back in Kazakhstan’s Soviet…

Any moron can download a movie or album—but torrenting a new pair of jeans? That’s the future right there.

It’s Time for Apple to Stop Patent Trolling

Intellectual property is important. There’s no denying that. But there’s a line between protecting yourself and just trying to kill everybody around you. It’s one Apple has already crossed, and it’s not doing anybody any good. Time to knock it off. Another Apple lawsuit was smacked down today. This time a Dutch court ruled that…
