• The Best Gaming Room You Will See All Day

  In Gaming, Geeky, Videos

  

  While I don’t personally know YouTube user 16bitghost – who also happens to go by the name of Pete, I am going to go out on a limb and say that he is a man who loves his games. He has amassed just about every console known to man, each in its own little shelf beneath a modestly-sized flat screen. On top of the console collection, there is a game library that some people would [...]

• iPhone Business Cards Will Make People Remember You…Or Confuse Them

  In Apple, Geeky

  

  If I owned my own business I would probably want a business card that people would think was cool, instead of some standard, white and flimsy model that’s simple and to the point, because let’s be honest: those get thrown away.  Now Beasty Design offers a card that is both funny and hip, that would definitely make a recipient go “Ha! An iPhone!”  The cards come with a glossy finish, and come in a pack [...]

• Guy Pops a Hundred Balloons With a Laser [video]

  In Featured, Geeky, Videos

  

  A guy named Scott has attempted to set a world record by popping one hundred balloons with a laser. The laser in question is a Wicked Lasers Spyder III Krypton 750-1000 mW laser and it was shone through something that is called a “burning lens” but that looks a lot like a magnifying glass to me. Popping all those balloons looks like a lot of fun but I’m not really sure if there is any [...]

   

• Google gets first license for a driverless automobile in Nevada

  In Breaking News, Computers, Geeky, Robots

  

  I’m not sure how much trust we can put in robots, especially if we consider that historically speaking, at least in Hollywood movies, robots have amounted to little more than enslaving humans, or literally trying to wipe them out altogether. Google? No. Their current robot is built into a car, and it’s a car that drives itself, by itself. The state of Nevada has issued a license to allow Google’s driverless automobiles to roam the [...]

  In Gadgets, Geeky

  

  “Honey, can you print something out at work for me today?”  Well sure I can, but there’s about a 50% chance I’m going to lose my flash drive either before or after I do so.  Seriously though, how many times have you put your little memory stick in your pocket, only to realize that when you pulled your wallet out you probably dropped it somewhere, making what is normally very so convenient, incredibly not?  God [...]

• FPS Russia Sticks a Machinegun on an iPad-controlled Quadrocopter

  In Geeky, Security, Videos

  

  FPS Russia has given yet another set of mannequins a really bad day by mounting a machinegun with 100 rounds of ammo on an iPad-controlled quadrocopter – a flying weapon that he affectionately refers to as “Sharleen”. The flying gun is most impressive, as are FPS Russia’s aim and his liberal use of legally obtainable explosives. [Source]

• Macintosh iPhone Case- Because Nostalgia is Funny

  In Apple, Gadgets, Geeky, Misc., Phones

  

  With iPhone cases available in subway stations, convenience stores, and probably in those claw games where you try and pick up the stuffed animals, there would really have to be something cool about one for me to want to post it.   Ok, maybe this one will only seem entertaining for the amount of time it will take me to finish this, click a few category boxes, enter a few “tags” and hit submit, but [...]
