Chainsaw Bayonet Will Make You Wish For Real Zombies [Get Some]

January 25, 2012 10:57 pm

Worried about zombies? Then you sir, or ma’am might want to consider the Doublestar Zombie X Chainsaw Rail Attachment – it lets you mount a battery-powered chainsaw on the assault rifle of your choice and cut through zombie flesh like a hot knife through butter (until the battery dies and you have no way of recharging it because everyone at the power company has been infected). This also includes an EOTech Zombie Stopper XPS2-Z Holographic site, which lets you line [...]

The Stealthiest Wi-Fi Repeater You Will See All Day

January 25, 2012 8:57 pm

A guy called Bradley recently had a situation at his work. The company was forced to install an open wireless access point, but designed it to be as inaccessible as possible to prevent employee use. Bradley’s solution: create a Wi-Fi repeater that can hide in plain sight. In his own words: Recently, my work was forced to install a wireless access point. It’s intended to be used with a wireless bar code scanner in the parts department. Due to a [...]

Link Your Cuffs With Your Preferred Side of the Force [Star Wars Cufflinks]

January 25, 2012 8:40 pm

If you love Star Wars and need to get dressed up from time to time, then you probably want to take a look at these exquisite Star Wars cufflinks. They come in Empire black and Rebel Alliance red… both have their benefits, but don’t underestimate the power of the dark side of the force. Seriously, you get to force choke people and shoot lightning out of your hands as well as all the other stuff that the good guys get [...]

Xbox 720 May Be a Different Kind of Animal

January 25, 2012 8:28 pm

Rumor has it that we are going to get our first glimpse of the Xbox 720 at E3 this summer (according to Boy Genius Report anyway). But what are we going to see? The word is that that the 720 GPU is going to be based on ATI’s Radeon HD 6670 GPU – which is a solid, affordable, DirectX 11-capable, mid-range card – that will give the new Box roughly six times the power of the last one. It will [...]

Is This the First Shot of a Canon 5D Mark III? [Rumors]

January 23, 2012 7:24 pm

If you are in the market for a Canon 5D Mark II, you might want to consider holding off for a few months. The image that you see above shows a new Canon being used on safari in Africa. The smart money is on it being the new 5D Mark III. It is built like a tank and doesn’t have a pop-up flash – it doesn’t take a big leap to arrive at the logical conclusion that this is the [...]

Craftsman Tool Cabinet Comes With Built-in Speakers

January 23, 2012 7:09 pm

The Craftsman Contour Powered Series Tool Storage unit is not your regular tool cabinet. It has all of the drawers that one would expect – it also has two 220W speakers that will connect to the Bluetooth-enabled music player of your choice and four powered USB ports. Personally, I think it makes sense – loud music and working in the garage go hand in hand. There is no word on pricing as of yet, but it does not look like [...]

iConvert Turns Your iPad Into a Scanner

January 22, 2012 7:16 pm

Brookstone’s iConvert Scanner is a cool little piece of equipment. The scanner, which measures 12.1?x 4.4?x 2.8? and weighs in at an ultralight 1.44 lbs, lets you scan documents directly to your iPad (images are saved in your Photo Library). It can scan documents that are between 2? to 8½” wide and uses the iPad to let you preview or delete images. It is kind of expensive for something that is just a scanner, but such is the price you [...]

Computer Keyboard Doormat Lacks Authenticity

January 22, 2012 7:03 pm

This keyboard doormat is cool and everything, but did they really need to mess with QWERTY in order to spell out welcome? I do not want my fortress of solitude to be welcoming, I have an imposing front door constructed of wood and metal with big locks to achieve exactly the opposite effect (and video intercom to avoid any unnecessary human contact with people who might be pushing religion or peddling other stuff that I don’t want). Whether you’re searching [...]

Anonymous Hits CBS, Universal, Vivendi and Sites in Brazil [Breaking]

January 22, 2012 6:54 pm

Anonymous has reportedly continued their revenge spree in spectacular fashion – targeting CBS.com, UniversalMusic.com, various sites in Brazil and Vivendi. In the case of CBS.com, the attack was more significant than a simple DDoS. Anonymous gained complete access to CBS.com and left them with nothing but a single index page. Backups must have been on hand at CBS.com, because the site has since been restored. At the time of writing, Universal and Vivendi are still out of commission. The Brazilian [...]

Megaupload Shutdown Raises Bigger Questions

January 20, 2012 11:26 pm

When it comes down to it, the differences between a site like Megaupload and Drop Box are semantic. They have attracted vastly different crowds, but they are both essentially performing the same function. Dropbox might have some super-slick applications that allow for awesome integration and syncing but at the end of the day it allows users to store and share files. The difference between Megaupload and Drop Box is cost: Megaupload provided unlimited storage for $80 a year; in contrast, [...]

Nintendo 3DS review

January 19, 2012 11:22 am

Last spring I was at the Montreal launch of the Nintendo 3DS and after briefly testing it, I came to the conclusion that it wasn’t for me. The steep price and the fact that all the demos were using 3D in maximum mode, gave me not only a headache but also made me cross-eyed, vomitous and possibly infertile. This along with the lack of any new Mario franchise games at launch, had turned me off the little console. However, the [...]

Solar Powered Turbine Fob Watch Has a Solar-powered Turbine

January 19, 2012 9:13 am

The Solar Powered Turbine Fob Watch is by far the coolest looking fob watch that I have seen all day, maybe all week, maybe even all month. By the looks of things, it is just the turbine blades that are solar-powered – they spin when the watch is out in sunlight. It is unclear whether the watch itself is solar-powered, but I am guessing not – or it would be the coolest-looking fob watch that I have seen all year. [...]
