When we think Hello Kitty, we think about the adorable piece of shit gadgets they produce and the meaningless of the entire damn brand. That’s right Hello Kitty, we’re hatin’. But this one is actually sort of neat.
This Hello Kitty toy designed by Dr Romanelli gives us the rare inside look. This is the first time we’ve gotten to dissect a Hello Kitty doll and apparently a bunch of their organs have eyes, which is actually pretty creepy.
When I was a kid, there was no such thing as bone or muscle. Everything inside the body was considered guts. When a head exploded, guts exploded out with it. Shot in the knee? Out come the guts.
These Shoe Guts were designed by Sara Antoinette Martin for the book “Custom Kicks.” See… I was right. Feet totally have guts.
The team at PhoneWreck has gone and done something that no other Verizon Wireless subscriber dare not do: dissect the Blackberry Storm bit by bit. Head on over for the full review to find out what that crazy new “clickscreen” looks like under the hood. From what I can gather, it looks like the screen uses a single button to recognize typing movements. And take a look at that huge stepper motor for vibration functions; it’s huge! Anyone who likes getting inside popular electronics should most definitely view the Storm from the inside out.
This is a mod that hits close to home due to the fact that my iPod’s headphone jack died this week. Perhaps I should just gut it and turn it into a little case like this one. It holds plenty of cigarettes for your smoking pleasure. Pretend you’re a modern day Steve McQueen and light up a fag for good measure. Then again, I suppose I could just buy a new headphone jack and solder it to the iPod. Yeah, that’ll work.
Besides, I already have a cigarette case. It’s called my pocket.
The new Macbooks are all the rave on the Internet. Even Vince and I can’t shut up about them. If you’re just as enthralled by all of this Mac-goodness as we are, then you’ll find the dismantling of the new Macbook Pro’s unibody by the crew of Ifixit.com to be very interesting.
They go through the process of taking apart the Macbook Pro while offering some insight on the new design and noting the differences when paired against the old design. It’s a great read and if you’re considering purchasing a new laptop, don’t overlook this analysis of one of the better options out there for your next notebook: the Macbook Pro.
Seems acrylic bongs weren’t enough. Now acrylic case mods are all the rage. Of course, this also makes your computer easily modifiable and upgradeable because everything isn’t packed away in some wheel of cheese. Adding and removing cards, memory and storage has never been easier.
The acrylic cases were designed by Digital Cowboy who are calling it the Acrylic Cowboy. Several different styles are available, ranging from the standard orange platform, to the bad ass smoke gray design which places your motherboard at a special 25-degree angle, ensuring without any doubt that you’re one extreme dude. Now, if you put your PC in a black box case mod, you’ll be anything but extreme. They’re available in Japan from $37 to $101, but be warned, these case mods are not water-proof. Take a flight, don’t swim, or you’ll be drinking your own urine for hydration.
No one likes having to go into a hospital for major surgery. I doubt that was the main reason for coming up with this new, non-invasive procedure that allows doctors to remove your appendix sans pain. It may be a little uncomfortable, but it sure beats having your guts cut apart.
The procedure works as follows: A miniature camera and tube are sent down the patient’s stomach. Doctors then look around and make a TINY incision in the stomach and cut away the appendix. Afterwards, a small net-like bag is used to scoop up the appendix and everything is then pulled out the mouth, organs included. Why have the surgery? According to one patient, he was “doing sit-ups and eating pizza” a day later. Impressive!
