I’ve fooled around with most of the major operating systems and Ubuntu is easily the most adaptive. It’s just made for users to fuck around with. So projects like this are possible, if not encouraged. This Ubuntu wizard used a script to make the computer open and close the CD drive over and over again. But for what reason, you ...

One of my favorite iPhone app developers, Smule, creators of Leaf Trombone and Ocarina, have released their newest app, I Am T-Pain. At first glance, this app might seem like a shameless plug for the T man and his destruction of music, but further research shows that this app seems like a whole lot of fun. Using the actual Auto-Tune ...

What this USB Contruction Site is really lacking is a bunch of talking construction workers, gawking at your girlfriend’s ass and making fun of your skinny legs. “Heyyy, sweet cheeks, you want some of this? How ’bout a little of this? Yeaaaaa.” The Construction Site features light up cones, a white or yellow sign and a single construction worker, depending ...

Seagate, in partnership with MusicSkin, has released 161 fitted skins for their FreeAgent Go external hard drives. Seagate is on a mission. Launching the project “Pimp My Drive,” users can now add a dose of personality to their oh-so-impersonal hard drives, which already happen to be all colorful-like anyway. $20 earns you your very own skin selection.

Sure, it lets you save some data (16GB actually), but what the hell is the point? We do all the work? You know, I heard fanning yourself actually makes you hotter because you exert more energy moving your arm than the movement provides air. So not only is this pointless, but it’s harmful. But hey… USB! Give yourself heat exhaustion ...

This anti-theft Newspaper Laptop Sleeve seems sort of counter-productive to me. Don’t people take other peoples’ newspapers all of the time? If I see a random newspaper sitting on a table, I’m picking that baby up and reading. So, in all actuality, you might be setting yourself up for even a higher chance of theft. But whatever, it looks pretty ...

There’s been a Don Ed Hardy explosion recently. I’ve even seen Hardy rip-off shoes at my local discount designer stores. If you’ve already got Ed Hardy’s name plastered across your body and you’re really digging that new school ink style, Ed Hardy is busting out a collection of USB drives branding the style you’ve learned to love. The drives will ...

The Personal Pocket Safe USB Drive protects all of your data by vaulting the drive with a numeral combination lock. The keypad requires that you type in a PIN before screwing around with the data inside. No more worrying about your mom “accidentally” taking a peek at your special porn drive. Hiding it under your socks just isn’t gonna cut ...
