Hot: For those who may be unaware, Ada Lovelace Day – today, March 24th – is a day intended to celebrate the titular Ada Lovelace, and her achievement as the world’s first computer programmer. Hand in hand with that, it is also an opportunity to heap praises on women in technology throughout the ages as [...]
Hot: One look at our vending machines will tell you that office-dwelling drones like Your Humble Narrator are always seeking out exotic drinkable liquids. Especially if said liquids are reputed to be imbued with energizing or stupefying properties. Maybe it’s the condition of our imprisonment, which in this office typically involves non-ergonomic, castoff cubicles, brutally [...]
Hot: In an endless void of silence, one voice was bold enough to even suggest an answer to the challenge put forth by me and my cavalier crew! It was none-other than the good Doctor. The email from Dr. Hypercube was like manna from the heaven that exists in a twisted alternate reality in which [...]
Hot: Being, in suitable Measure, a humble Broadside in the Baroque Fashion, the Aim, inasmuch as mere Persons be possessed of a Will to divine Truths, and these Truths doth shew the Purpose and Designes of such a benevolent Creator, who, though a Deity endowed with Caprice, hath made Humankind in His Image, and there-by [...]
Hot: Back with more handcrafted ideas for giving people stuff because of some holiday or another is EvilMadScientist.com as they demonstrate how to create Iterative Algorithmic Sculptures from Fimo! I love fractals despite having only the wispiest of understandings on the mathematics behind them. The tutorial offers you a way to handcraft a physical model [...]
Hot: Via Technoccult – Researchers in Japan have been grafting the chilled, severed heads of baby rats onto the haunches of adult rats. It’s been noted that the brain can develop as normal for as much as three weeks in this state. Maybe lab rats have evolved into really big cyberpunk fans, and they’re hoping [...]
Hot: And The Telegraph is hung up on the fact that he surfs. Well okay, perhaps hung up on it is going a bit far. Still, as headlines go, it’s pretty misleading. A. Garrett Lisi seems like a really interesting person. I mean, just check out his resume! He’s got: a PhD in Physics he’s [...]
Hot: If I may be so bold as to quote Animaniacs… “It’s time for another good idea, bad idea” Good idea: A device that allows folks with female sex organs to pee standing up. Bad idea: Fashioning said device to look something akin to a giant golden dildo. It’s certainly a device that’s an invention [...]
Hot: Caution: Exposure to monkey head shaped children’s sleeping bag/backpack combos while on Molly and K will cause one to question whether people are humans or muppets. It’s a strange sight to behold. Friends don’t let friends handle monkey sleeping bags while crazy on the MDMA. As “Bob” as my witness, I’ll never bring another [...]
Hot: This has to be one of the best treatments I’ve seen thus far on the “grape plasma” experiment. It’s short, sweet, and neatly edited. Our host is also kind enough to remind us that this is not at all a safe experiment.
