unconscious decisions are smarter (so best to code while asleep, drooling on your keyboard?)

common sorting algorithms, and their relative performance (this one is best for cousins, this for grandmas, but these aunt good for anything, har har)

how to completely demotivate programmers with a single sentence (and no, not the obvious "here, code this access database" or "you're on tech support")

famous unsolved codes and ciphers (do one of these and I'll buy you an icecream)

top 10 reasons geeks make good fathers (what? not a single mention of the size of their schlongs or their penetrating, uhh, intelligence?)

and just coz they're SO cute (plus, you know, tell me a geek that doesn't like the simpsons (and no, I'm not talking about you beagl, or you happyinmotion, you're just ornery for the hell of it, that doesn't count *grin*)):

fingernail art (oh, oh, and this is just funny as hell)

acclaimed physicist presents exact solution of einstein's gravitational field equation - immediately solving two biggest problems of near light speed travel (finding the energy required, and not crushing humans in the process)


it's a building, finalist for a competition (tech description here, images here *drool*)

morse code translation app (requires java)

face transforming app - upload a pic of yourself, and see how you look when you're old, or young, or chinese, or, say, manga (requires java, but well worth switching it on for)


US military attempts to control weather using plasma (ok, weather control is old news, but using plasma for anything is cool, which is the only reason these guys get a mention - making ball lightning in a lab, using *yawn* a microwave oven. Been there, done that, but, you know, it's plasma, so hey!)

nuclear (not nuc-u-lar, thanks Bush) grade duct tape (nope, I'm not making this up! and thanks happyinmotion)

an app to completely remove all norton apps from your pc (thank god! someone finally thought of the children)

what happens when you break a high energy circuit that still has 500,000 volts running through it (very short, very impressive google video)


the Japanese know nothing

of course, you've gotta respect uber low tech - how about a stone age tribe, numbering 50-200 who have successfully rebuffed the rest of the planet - including helicopters, with a rain of arrows? (oh, and managed to survive the 2004 indian tsunami)

looks like a vintage picture of a respectable man, but it pulls up and there's porn, PORN I tells yah, hidden underneath


online game has you going down on a chick. No, wait, that's not the sneaky bit. The sneaky bit is they insist on you entering government issued ID information before you can enter (ostensibly to prove you're over 17, but in reality? ohhh, that's a database just waiting for a subpoena. Fortunately you can enter el shrubs name, dob and the whitehouse zip code (20500) and you'll be fine)


artist Shu Lea Cheang makes a movie (called Fluid, set in 2030) about genetically engineered cure for AIDs, called milk. The film was never released, but inspired this artpiece of a row of urinals, the middle vidscreen of a goldfish, others, *cough* more explicit.


She went on to a porn casting session inside this tent, but Norway shut that down.


after that she decided to make a a sex tv channel, but intended to only be shown after midnight. Switzerland beat that on the head with a stick, so she released a second version, with everything "snowed", and a webchannel inspired by it, linking aids deaths in africa to the availability of porn on the internet (interesting concept, actually)

law student files complaint against vagina (is it porn? or not? is it? or not?)

car crash porn, caught on cctv (and set to a funky beat) - ever watched a bendy bus totally lose it? or two trucks smash, all in a tunnel? yep, this is your link

this couldn't be complete without news from the good old Sun: lesbian lovers caught in train loo, and woman caught having sex outside three times in half an hour ("I couldn't wait until I got home")

ok, not porn, but definitely swearing - but only visible from space?

and just because it's insane, a whole stack of classic videogames, recreated on a 16*16 pixel square (and yes, fully playable)
