WoW addicts will be happy to know that there’s a way to take your addiction to the road. At least that’s what is alleged. Apparently it’s possible to run World of Warcraft on the iPad via Dave Perry’s non-commercial (yet) Gaikai game streaming service, which somehow bypasses Apple’s imprisonment of Flash and combines Java, Flash and Silverlight to create a ...

The Facade Printer, created by German design group Sonice Development GmbH, is a computer-controlled paintball gun that reproduces wall-sized images on, well, walls. The printer literally shoots the images onto the wall with eagle-eye precision. Now I might be able to finish my giant mural of Zombie Spock without too much trouble. Link [via]

LEGO has made official film-branded minifigs, such as Star Wars and even Toy Story, but they have yet to delve into the world of video gaming, which is actually sort of a mystery. So what are we geeks forced to resort to? Buying custom video game minifigs created by other geeks. These gaming minifigs by assorted artists can be found ...

While fleshlights and real dolls might have changed the way we looked at self-satisfaction, there’s never really been a sexually provocative product geared specifically to us geeks. And while Kasey McMahon’s self-portrait might not be the most delicate or pain-free renditions of sexual objects, it’s still a pretty blatant form of geek pr0n no matter how you look at it. ...

A perfectly baked cupcake can do strange things to a man. For instance, I hadn’t thought about cupcakes in months before I saw this video and now it feels as though my one existential goal is to get a cupcake in my belly by any means necessary. If you dug this post’s headline, you’ll love the corresponding video. Yes, it ...

As a professional blogger, I have about as much physical activity as your vacuum cleaner (not very much). I get to lounge around in my pajamas all day and read cool shit on the internet. Basically I’m everything you wish you could be. Sorry, it had to be said. Now BOW to me! But blogging doesn’t come without its hazards. ...

Star Wars and Star Trek have been locked in an intrinsically geeky battle since the beginning of modern geeky times. I’ve always been way more of a Star Wars guy, as I’m sure you can clearly tell from just taking a fleeting glace at this very blog, but as a master of the science fiction arts, I have to admire ...

There appears to be a budding Dr. Mengele in the house, though this time Gummi Bears are the victims of the heinous experimentation. The lengths at which some people are willing to go in the name of science is sickening. All these poor, innocent Gummi Bears were looking for was to be sent quietly through your digestive system. And this ...

Geek porn. That is exactly what this is. A cleverly devised ploy to sell as many t-shirts as possible to the geeky masses.
