Straight up geek porn.
First up clocks:
You will learn to fear sleeping in!!!
Or if you rather wake up gently.
This is taking the idea of a time table a little too literal.
Next two little bits of drinking tech:
Oh yeah, drinking and fat storage. Two great tastes that taste great together.
Not really tech, but something for the drink geeks among us. Too bad they don't have a shot glass bandolier. I would fill it with these! Fuck. They do have shot glass bandoliers. I know what I want for my birthday. Oh yeah, and a bottle of this, and abottle of this. YARR!
Kinda cool and useful tech:
USB key holder. I would totally keep my usb stick on my keys if I had one of these.
Hell yes. Fucking transformer earphones!!! All I need is a real life Soundwave and I am fucking Good to Go.
WTF? Tech:

In case you haven't heard.
It seems that there is a bit of a user revolt going on at digg.com, starting last night. It seems that digg started censoring posts that contained the leaked hd-dvd encryption key in them. Well. The user's are not taking that lightly. It seems like maybe the Dark Tipper hasn't sold out to the man. Here is why making the key open is a good thing.

New tower defense game! Protect the server! I think this is one of the harder ones I have played.
Ok.. 30 minutes later.. god that games addictive.
Neatorama had a cool article up about 30 strange animal mating habits. Entertaining read. I'm glad I'm not a bee.. That's all I'm sayin. Here's a quote:
"Actually, "court" may be too strong a word: the male giraffe basically follows her around until she gives in and lets him have her!"
Sounds like marriage...
Oh, and Cory, It mentions the dolphins prehensile penis...
Here are 12 quick and easy steps to being a computer security idiot.
This is a great article about the history of batmans vehicles.
It's art! No! it's a puzzle! It's both!
Check out this guys badassed driving skills.
Wham! Biff! Ooof! Some sweet fighting skills when this guy takes on 5 attackers. He's got nothing on these kung fu masters though.

Fuck flying cars. I want one of these bitches.
Check out these ninja sushi skills.
Yet another funny This Old House Home inspection nightmare.
It's the internet dress me up Mr. T
I don't know if this is fake or not. But its still kinda funny/creepy. Just don't tell Ryan.
Here's a bit of trend spotting for you. I predict that ASL (American sign language) intrepretations of rap songs are going to be a upcoming internet meme. Cause if the quality on that video was better, I would label that shit as totally fly. Look, you can do it to other generes too, like rock, oldies, 80's greats, top forty, but sadly, not nĂ¼ metal. It makes that shit gayer. And not this.
What you know about math? Punk!
If you've never seen Chacarron before, you need to watch this video.
Now this is the part of the post where I link to good music that doesn't suck:
I have loved Tenacious D since their show way back in the day on HBO (I think it was HBO). They are still kicking ass. FWIW this is one of my favorite episodes. And here is a YouTube playlist with all the episodes.
Here's a video of the Blue Man Group performing "Baba O'Riley" by The Who
Queen. Live at Wembley Stadium. Fucking awesome.
This is one of my all time favorite videos.
This is where I end the part of the post where I link to good music that doesn't suck. Until next time.
And here it is. the BLECH OF THE DAY!!!
Thats it for now. More to come. Stay tuned.

What would you do with 86 old PCs? Two bonus oblivion Domino videos for you..
ROFLMAO (a wow update of mah-na-na na)
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Man, this is a harsh prank. One comedian gets sets up his buddy for the next set by getting the entire audience to not laugh at all. Its allmost painful to watch.
So someone made a allmost impossible mod for the SMB for the NES. I mean, its fucking CRAZY HARD. So then some crazy guy posts a video of him playing it, and its possibly one of the funnier things I have seen in quite awhile.
This page cannot be fucking displayed!
Its Toroboto! The Robot that tortures people!

Just two things I wanted to share.

Who doesn't want to see lots of pictures of cats doing invisible stuff? I know it sounds weird, but its way funny.
Man, how many fucking kinds of awesome is this video for Knights of Cydonia by Muse? Its like 6 minutes of kungfu/Western/SciFi eyegasm.

Links for the proletariat
Desktopography is some high end shiney for your desktop wallpaper.
Overlord and Razorwire are the two most l33t haxx0rs in the world. Watch their adventures. When I saw the first video I thought that it would be perfect for acceptable.tv. And guess what, now its on it!
Its still not as good as Gemberling or Sockbaby! Go tell your alien brothers that Ronnie Cordova says their GAY! I don't know why, but I still think that Sockbaby is one of my all time favorite things on the internet..
I think some of my very first links on this site were to X-Entertainment, and they've consistantly cranked out quality content on that site for quite some time. So check out this artice about Dead Sodas.
I know the description of a turn based fighting game doesn't really sound the most fun, but I tell you what, the first time you rip your opponents arms off, and uppercut his head off you'll be addicted.
This game is a pretty good take on the traditional Arkanoid/Breakout mold.
A scientist is going to see if its possible to live underwater using algea as both a source of food and oxygen.
This is a really funny use of the Mento and Coke trick.
Read some of the emails in the Inbox of Nardo Pace, the Empires worst engineer
Is Laz-D the greatest rapper ever? Definatly not, but its definate that Jelly Donut is the best freestyler in the entire world!!!More JellyD here.

Here is a video of a homeless guy bringing down the house at the Apollo, and here is a short documentary about him.

This is a pretty amazing video (actually a few pictures put to a song) of sand floating on top of the ocean, and a new island being born.

The best part of wakin up, is hot links in your cup..
I'm in the process of finishing watching the "vengeance" trilogy by Chan-wook Park. I would have to say out of three "Oldboy" so far has been my favorite, I am just finishing "My Lady Vengeance", and "Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance" was pretty badass. His directing style is quite stunning, and all three movies are visual treats. I loved the one-take fight scene in Oldboy, probably one of my favorite fight scenes of all time.
On to the linkies!
Wow.. talk about old school internet greatness. All your base belong to Calvin and Hobbes.
Is Batman the greatest ninja of all time? He's definatly in the top ten according to this list.
Slashdot has a pretty interesting post about bugs as features in programs. Interesting read for the comments.
Jim Halpert is Dead?!?!?!!? If your not watching The Office, do yourself a favor and go get the first two seasons and catch the fuck up. Also, if you haven't seen the I.T. Crowd yet, get the fuck to it! And while I'm speaking on TV stuff.. get "The Mighty Boosh" as well.. Genius stuff!!!!
What should I do with 300 porn DVDs? Questions like that are the reason I love ask.metafilter. Also, Adam Savage posts there occasionaly, which is kinda cool.
This is some horrible live action Street Fighter goodness..
Allthough I'm not a huge fan of their name change from dailyWTF, to worse than failure, the content is still as gooas as ever, so check out this wonderful error message.

Its Princess Leia the yodel of life!!! ahh the headly innocent days of the internet, when the sky was the limit.. now its all mashups and torrents and blah blah blah. Oh god.. I think I may be becoming a internet geezer. Doomed to sit on my porch in a rocking chair mumbling about animutations, and the day we were set up the bomb..
Want to fix computers the GeekSquad way? Then check out their leaked manuals.
Ok.. this is some crazy sci-fi future shit right here.. a fucking deep fat frier/gold fish tank

bleep doop bleblebe beep
Hmm I read some news sites this morning, and joystiq has a pretty decent article about how "dwarf fortress" is the future of gaming. Man.. If there was a tight gui for it, it would rock even more ass..
I think one of the things I love most about it, is the different game modes, and how they interact with the persistant world. If you play a few successful games of Fortress mode, and build some awesome dwarf civilistaions that create some epic weapons, later you can play adventure mode and discover the ruins of your old civs and plunder the loot you created before. Everything in this world functions and has names. Everthing is also generated when you first run the world generator. Its a awesome game if you get into it..
So, on to subject number 2 for todays post. Faith.I have faith. I don't talk about it much, unless asked. I don't feel its my right to judge others based on their faith, or any other factors. But HOLY SWEET FANCY MOSES! How can some people of faith be so stupid?!?!?!! I watch these two videos, notice their complete lack of a grasp on science and reality, and then I want a peanut butter and bannana sammich. Ok. I guess in the second video maybe he is unwittingly touching on some quantum physics, because I guess that while the lid is on the jar, the peanut butter could be in multiple states (there/not there/a teeming civilization).
If you've ever played any of the "grow" games (Grow RPG being the best IMHO) then you may enjoy this.
Haha the Ninja from 'Ask a Ninja' interviews Will Farrell and Jon Heder from Blades of Glory
Ever wonder what would happen if you throw a big bowl of dry ice into a hotel swimming pool?! Pure awesome.
Its been a hard days night of the living dead!
This is one of my favorite skits from UCB..

Could the Onion be coming out with some compitition for the Daily show?
Hmmmm did this guy travel into the future and meet the future version of himself? His cameraphone says yes..

Oh it would've been, could've been worse than you would ever know.
I'm really digging the new Modest Mouse cd. Its pretty bad-assed. I've been a fan of theirs since like 2000 and its great to see them getting some recognition. If you haven't seen it yet, check out their new video for Dashboard, its fishtastic.
Pimps up, Ho's down, Gmod is in da club!
See.. Ideas like this are what make our society great. "Hey Honey, Tonight I need you to taser me while I'm shotgunning a beer! Yeah yeah, I know it sounds crazy, but its going to be GREAT!!"Its how great things are born.
I;m sure you've all seen the exploding whale video. If not, you should go back through the packet you got when you first used the internet. I know its in there.. Well anyway, I had no idea that they tended to blow up by themselves.. GROSS!
God I love me some 'This American Life'. I'm excited for the upcoming Showtime show of it. Also I'm pumped that they are finally offering free MP3 downloads, and not just streaming realaudio versions of the show.
So yeah.. Short one today.. Maybe tommorow I will get to pick through my "bag o' links" some more.
