I thought there was nothing more relaxing than watching Koi fish swim around in their pond, that was until I learned how soothing Koi can be when they’re melting into a puddle of liquid. These Cold Fish Koi Ice Cube mold from Perpetual Kid allows you to freeze eight Koi-shaped ice shapes and let them float around in your beverage of choice until they melt into oblivion. It’s so much more convenient than owning your own pond. Link

So you think you’re real smooth jailbreaking your iPhone, huh? Really pulled the wool over the eyes of Apple, you did. Dutch jailbreakers beware. A hacker from the Netherlands was recently able to conive a series of Dutch iPhone users into using his software to “jailbreak” their device. When the supposed jailbreak is complete and the phone is rebooted, users receive this message: “Important Warning: You iPhone’s been hacked because it’s really insecure! Please visit doiop.com/iHacked and secure your iPhone... Continue reading

The Wiimote is much more of a versatile tool than I think even Microsoft could have imagined. People have hacked the Wiimote to create some zany and awesomely practical mods. But I think “lawnmower control” is a new one. The Casmobot Lawnmower is navigated using nothing but a hacked Wiimote and the crafty engineering by several scientists at the University of Southern Denmark. The mower syncs with the Wiimote via Bluetooth, allowing the user to control the cutting edge, the... Continue reading

Just completely flooded. 4chan would make sure of that. But since we can’t see every single cursor, we’ll have to settle for just a single spectacle. The Computer Mouse Cursor Bench, officaly called the Urban Cursor project, provides a taste of what could have been, if Google had decided to use a different cursor method... Continue reading

The days following Halloween are always a lot of fun. Not only do we get to munch on mountains of leftover candy, but we get to see photos of everyone’s awesome finished costume ideas. This Big Head Self-Portrait Papercraft costume is one of the neatest I’ve seen yet. Eric Testroete got a little cocky. I mean this guy’s head was huge. He created a papercraft model of himself so he could show off his gigantic ego. The finished product makes... Continue reading

Chewbacca’s roar. This is one talent I’ve always wanted, along with the ability to rip off the arms of a droid if they beat me in chess, but that’s another talent for another time. This sexy instructional video features an adorable geek chick unveiling the secrets of the Chewie roar. You’ll need to have some sort of control over your oral muscles, something which I unfortunately don’t seem to have and it would help to share the genes of a... Continue reading

Ok, so this costume WOULD have been awesome had we heard about it, say, a week and a half ago, but alas, Halloween has come and gone and now we’ll have to wait another full-year before we can dress up in this Low Resolution costume, and possibly make up for our awful Borat costume we’ve worn for the second Halloween in a row. Well, I guess we could really dress in a costume any day of the year if we... Continue reading

I’m really digging this Space Invaders fabric I spotted over at Sprite Stitch. I would so rock a pillow set made out of this cloth. My house is just waiting to be upholstered in this material. Somehow I don’t feel my girlfriend would be very supportive of the idea. Link [via]

And we had the nerve to think that all of that “om nom nom” stuff was nonsense. These kitties prove otherwise. Here’s all the proof you need to see that the mysterious “om nom nom” totally exists in nature. Link
