When a friend sent me the link to this hilar­i­ous clip, I just couldn’t resist. I absolutely had to post this. It is so funny, every Star Wars fan should have seen this. It’s well made too, so lean back and enjoy this bru­tal gangsta rap. I only hope it won’t mess with my head when I’m going to watch a Star Wars movie next time.

Are you? I am. Every once in a while I donate blood. Any­way, enjoy and laugh

So, you do live in a coun­try where it’s not accept­able to see a woman’s nip­ples in the pub­lic? Like on ads, in com­mer­cials, or live? Any­one remem­bers Janet Jackson’s “Nip­ple­gate” which was, of course, an absolutely unin­ten­tional wardrobe mal­func­tion? Almost four years after the 2004 Super Bowl inde­cency inci­dent Mia Lin­gerie, a qual­ity lin­gerie com­pany, has the solu­tion for show­cas­ing it’s wares: they sim­ply let them van­ish into thin air, thanks to Photoshop.

That’s right, you didn’t miss some­thing. In order to demon­strate how seam­less its lin­gerie really is, they put on quite a show as evi­denced by the pic­ture I’ve kindly pro­vided for your view­ing plea­sure. This is part of an adver­tis­ing cam­paign in Mecixo where it is OK to show naked women as long as there are no nip­ples to be seen. Actu­ally, I think it’s kind of funny to see how they nailed that “seam­less” part.

I’ve got a whole lot of noth­ing going on. Lit­er­ally. Unfor­tu­nately, I can’t write about that, can I? Instead I rather write about an ini­tia­tive that deserves sup­port. It’s about fight­ing stu­pid­ity on the inter­net. Of course, one might invol­un­tar­ily think of Don Quixote when read­ing the for­mer sen­tence. Don’t blame me, I’m just the mes­sen­ger. Any­way, check it out for your­self. In the mean­time, relax and enjoy the comics (yes, they’re kinda geeky).

This is hilar­i­ous, well done, and there’s a cer­tain truth in it.

All ye nerds, lis­ten up! Here’s a real life-​​saver for you, giv­ing your rela­tion­ship a new twist. Jen­nifer Chowd­hury has demon­strated her master’s the­sis project with the flow­ery name Inti­mate Con­trollers. These con­trollers work by build­ing game con­trollers into under­gar­ments which allows games being played by cou­ples through phys­i­cally touch­ing one another. The rea­son­ing behind that work is quite simple:

“You can’t fall in love with a gamer and expect him or her to give up gam­ing to spend more time with you.”

In order to cir­cum­vent some of the pit­falls in a geek’s love life, she came up with these con­trollers. The tech­nol­ogy is sub­or­di­nate to the rela­tion­ship, a tool to bring you together and get you talk­ing. Pretty sophis­ti­cated if you ask me, but hey, there may be some peo­ple out there who really are in need of some­thing like that. Wired Mag­a­zine has the scoop. Of course, if you’re hav­ing a hard time to imag­ine how to put these con­trollers to use, watch the video.
