Tetris was probably my number one hobby from about the age of 8 until I was 12-13. I would just sit in a comfy chair, Game Boy in hand, staring at the tiny display until the image of Tetris blocks was burnt into my retinas. You might think I exaggerate, but Tetris was that serious. This Tetris Origami Block really strikes a chord with my youthful, immature side. The side that loves pee and poopy jokes. The side that loves... Continue reading

Instead of rolling a pair of dice to see who goes first in Monopoly, why don’t you use a pair of hard boiled eggs? I guarantee they’re a lot tastier than the dice. Winner gets to eat the dice, as long as they don’t mind their eggs to be rolling around on some random surface. The Egg Cuber boils your egg into a cube-shape, allowing your meal to be unique but still completely edible. Some people might not dig the... Continue reading

While I applaud the concept of mashing together the classic design of Rubik’s Cube and the iconic gadgetry of alarm clocks, I’ve got to admit a slight disappointment that turning off the alarm doesn’t entail actually solving the puzzle. Would the complete and utter frustration be worth the ultimate geek cred you’d obtain with one of these things at your bedside? Despite the lacking of actual Rubik’s-like movement, the alarm clock brings the thunder with the added functionality of temperature,... Continue reading

I’m crazy for mosaics. Who would’ve thought you could compound various unrelated colors together and display a picture of Spock. It’s mind boggling. Do you know what’s even more mind boggling? Mosaics made up of scrambled Rubik’s cubes. No new Rubik’s cubes here, this mosaic is made up completely of the classic Rubik’s cube you know and hate. It’s less frustrating and much more appealing.

This is one ill case mod. That’s slang for “well done and sexy,” which is exactly what Nick Falzone was going for with this computer case inspired by a Beijing building. This concoction of wood and circuitry looks to be a mash up of Tron and the Borg cube, minus the corrupt programs and assimilation. Because Nick is such a nice fellow, he provides a detailed guide on making your own at the link provided. Think you’ve got the carpentry... Continue reading

While digitizing a Rubik’s cube would offer little more than confusion and frustration, at least it’s a one-up from Hasbro’s Lights Out. However, it is not a one-up from the original design of the Rubik’s cube, which is a classic amongst puzzle games worldwide. Rubik’s cubes were always the cheap toy you could throw around when you couldn’t solve it, but now that it’s electronic, it’s more expensive and therefore more fragile. This is the future. So why not add... Continue reading

Ice cube trays don’t get more bizarre than ones shaped like a AK-47 magazine. That’s what forged these bullet-shaped ice cubes shown above which, for some reason or another, are now chilling our favorite drinks. No, not even Titanic or Tetris-shaped ice cubes can match what these puppies are packin’. That’s a whole lot of heat for such a chilling product. They aren’t available as of yet, but you can pre-order ‘em for $13.25. That’s sure to give you the... Continue reading

Unless you’re one of those crazy Rainman-like guys who can solve a Rubik’s Cube in under a minute, then the cube has caused you some sort of frustration or grief at one point in your life. Well, this new Rubik’s Cube appears even more difficult than its predecessor. Without colors on any side, the only leeway you get is from the varying sizes and even that will probably throw you off track.  On top of that, to create even more... Continue reading

Resisting your e-mail is futile. When Jamie Matthews gets an e-mail, he just has to be notified. Receiving a glowing cube from Linden Labs at a job fair, Matthews just couldn’t resist turning it into something a little more worthwhile. A simple python script runs on his computer, periodically screen-scraping his Gmail inbox looking for new mail. It then outputs a message to the serial port, indicating the mailbox status. On the other end of the serial connection is a... Continue reading
