After much anticipation, and more than a little prodding , Lego has added three female researchers to its cadre of scientific minifigs. The "Reseach Institute" playset features an astronomer, a paleontologist and a chemist, and a range of badass accoutrements (like Lego dinosaur fossils!) specific to each specialty.
Do you see this crab, running back and forth, clacking his claws in eager anticipation? Can you make this crab on your iPhone? No. But you can make it in Gmail.
DarendukesCan't wait to get super-pissed off at this game all over again.
And it's coming to the PlayStation 3, the PS4, the Xbox 360, the Xbox One, and PC in glorious high definition.
It's been a long, slow trek for Rosetta to catch up to Comet Churyumov-Gerasimenko, but, more than 10 years after it was launched, it will finally meet up with its intended target within the next 16 hours — and you can watch it as it does.
This crying baby is certain that the world is a terrible, unkind place and that nothing will ever be OK again. And she's probably right becau—never mind, Katy Perry's "Dark Horse" is starting. She nods her approval. The tempest is averted... for now.
DarendukesI might actually pay for this.
Yes, if renting Lego sets is something you'd like to do, then you'd best bookmark Pley.com immediately. The site allows you to rent your choice of Lego sets on a monthly basis, and then return them. Yes, really.
I've embedded the trailer*, but the full 21 minute prelude to the feature length film about the first major Federation/Klingon war, staring Tony Todd, Kate Vernon, Michael Hogan, Richard Hatch, J.G. Hertzler, Gary Graham & Alec Peters is now available on Kickstarter. If you like Star Trek you should watch it.
DarendukesNow I know!
There is nothing about this VHS instructional video, titled How to Have Cybersex on the Internet, that isn't completely amazing. Describing it would only sully its perfection, so just hit play and be awed. Warning: Contains a topless (but censored) lady. After all, who the hell cybersexes with their shirt on?
DarendukesAwesome.
The exploding-head scene (you know the one) from David Cronenberg's bloodhappy cheesefest, Scanners, is easily its most iconic. But have you ever wondered how the film's special effects team made the head burst just so? It wasn't pyrotechnics. It wasn't pneumatics. The answer, it turns out, was a lot more straightforward.
This is an axe in a windshield on I-95 in Massachusetts. How did this particular axe get in that particular windshield, not far from that particular woman's head? The Massachusetts State Police explain:
This single (and quite colorfully blossoming) tree grows 40 different varieties of peaches, plums, apricots, nectarines, cherries, and even almonds — but just how does it do it?
I'm liking the look of this Jurassic World poster, released today at Comic-Con, despite my extreme prejudice against scientifically inaccurate dinosaurs that have no feathers. Nice to see the dinosaur hanging out in the garbage near a city construction site. Urban raptors are the next logical step.
Yikes. Tusk is one part Misery, one part man-to-walrus body mutilation movie. We're really not sure what to expect from Kevin Smith's latest — but he's definitely horrifying us.
Remember when a bunch of people hung out in a landfill for a weekend and it didn't end in total disappointment? In April, the devoted among us choked on dust in Alamogordo, New Mexico while Xbox Entertainment Studios and Lightbox Entertainment dug...
DarendukesNice. She will go far in life.
It's a Friday afternoon in the summer, why not take five minutes and watch a bunch of '80s movie mega nerds fake-hack into a bunch of big, old computers?
Fresh from Comic-Con, here's a peek at the bloopers from the just-completed season 4 of Game of Thrones. Highlights include a near miss with a torch, a rare incident of Tywin Lannister cracking up, and an extended cut of the Peter Dinklage dance that spawned a thousand GIFs.
DarendukesBecause Tombstone & Mario Kart.
DarendukesAwesome!!! I wonder what old piece of hardware's PCB this was printed on...
DarendukesHoly crap. That guy rules.
Darendukeslol
Despite an impressive "25% off uberX this summer" deal, one man's worthless 82 foot Uber journey around Houston still set him back $4.28.
