Ford has done it again. Just when we thought they were all out of surprises. Finally a car I can afford without having to go through those damn greedy banks. I can’t wait to cruise around picking up chicks in my new ride.
Ford VP made a startling announcement today, unveiling their new $650 vehicle of the future. Without further adieu, Ford unveils the ‘93 Ford Taurus.
Today is the day, baby. Most of you who reserved a PS3 Instant Stream disc will be receiving yours today. I happened to be one of the lucky ones who got their hands on a disc a littler earlier in the day so I’ve taken the liberty of reviewing the disc for those of you who were still on the fence about going through the trouble of reserving your own copy.
The whole process is pretty seamless. The first time you pop in the disc you’re required to go through a very simple activation process, but after that you’re home free. The cover flow UI is easy to navigate after you get used to the slightly clumsy square-button led navigation. The quality is MUCH better than I expected, almost reaching DVD quality and definitely out pacing both my PC and my Mac.
Enough of my pandering. Check out the video and see for yourself!
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 tiger, badger or bear.
I’m pretty sure the key to mastering the roar is practice, even if you feel sort of silly gurgling all by yourself. The only problem I see possibly facing is explaining away the guttural noises if someone walks in on you practicing.
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.
And by the big leagues, we mean a bigger-than-life Guitar Hero-esque game being played on a massive megatron wall sized screen. The Kasabian football players kick the soccer ball at their colored square as the Arduino-controlled contact sensors are illuminated by falling colored blocks.
The resulting game is both severely awesome and ridonkulous. Check out the video after the jump.
My shit doesn’t only smell like freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, it’s also made out of 100% pure copper and oak. Seriously, I’m so steampunk my wooden feces are literally metal-plated.
The TeslaPunk Urinal is a handmade solid oak toilet tank, complete with a battery powered flush pump, a laser aiming assistant (aim at the laser dot in the bowl at night for minimal leakage), lights, antique gauges, a flush capacitor, and a cup holder.
…just to hear the resulting racket that ensues. These stairs are actually a working oversized piano, sort of like the one from the movie Big, but in stair form.
I’m not sayin’ I’d rather play as Sonic than Pac-Man, but you can’t deny that the game would go a lot quicker playing as the hedgehog. Sonic rolls through the ghosts like a knife through warm butter. And now I want a warm buttered roll. Thanks me.
You’ve seen people practically offering their lives for invites, you’ve seen it trending on Twitter, but what is it? I know there are a lot of you out there who are still kinda unsure what Google Wave actually is and why it’s such a big deal.
The video above does a great job explaining what Google Wave actually is and why you should care.
