Ipod invention leads to more car accidents and padded everything in the blink of an eye.

Japan’s new eyelid control for the Ipod is a new great way to make accident prone people live up to their name. (and they never needed help to begin with) Infrared sensors that you attach to your glasses or headphones detect blinking commands that change the song.

(cause I don’t worry about enough as it is) It is these kind of inventions that are not thought through enough before they are designed and sold.

Everex debuts a tiny Linux PC. Mac mini watch out.

Vista Prices are down and we still don’t care.

That means faster Australian porn downloads and uploads for everyone. The technology is still new so don’t […]

Cheating is OK. Linux cheat sheets.
