Last month, Korean pop group Sistar transformed into "Sailor Star" for a commercial to promote online Korean shopping site 11st. Some aren't happy about that!

What if the rest of the alien universe was terrified of humans?
by Casey Chan on Sploid, shared by Casey Chan to Gizmodo
In almost every sci-fi movie worth re-watching, it seems that us humans are always less technologically advanced, dumber and only serve as a mere speed bump into an alien race eliminating humans to take over our planet and suck Earth dry of its resources. We're always the weaker ones in alien wars. Well, what if we're not? Tom Scott imagined a scenario where everyone else in the universe was afraid of humans. It's fantastic.

LEGO Car Has LEGO Engine, Actually Drives
by Luke Plunkett
"The Super Awesome Micro Project", as this has become known, is not a special effect. That really is a life-size car made out of LEGO, and it really is being powered by an engine made out of LEGO.

NASA finds the coldest place on Earth
by Jesus Diaz on Sploid, shared by Geoff Manaugh to Gizmodo
You're looking at Valkyrie Dome aka Dome Fuji, on the East Antarctic Plateau. Near these dark structures there is a ridge with hollows that can get down to minus 133.6 degrees Fahrenheit—minus 92 degrees Celsius. A team of NASA and US Geological Survey scientists have now officially declared this ridge The Coldest Place On Earth.

This Is Why Imperial Units Suck
by Jamie Condliffe
Imperial units suck. They suck really, really hard. They're archaic, irrelevant, difficult to work with, and, perhaps most stupidly, based on incredibly arbitrary reasoning. As this wonderful video explains.

BlackBerry's Porsche-designed Z10 is a phone that even it can't afford
by Daniel Cooper
If your company produced a device that, while technically accomplished, managed to lose you $1 billion a few months later, you'd probably try and pretend that it never existed. That's not the approach that BlackBerry is taking with the Z10, however. Instead, the beleaguered smartphone maker has teamed up with Porsche Design to create the P'9982, a gussied-up version of the touchscreen smartphone designed to tempt gold course-bound executives and the super rich in ways that the original evidently failed to do. We've just got one of the devices in our hand, and we thought we'd run the rule over it to see how the other half live. %Gallery-slideshow122231%

This Pringles Dispenser Will Revolutionize Snacks In a Can
by Andrew Liszewski
Pringles changed the world for the better when it released its perfectly-stacked potato chips-in-a-can approach to snack food. But while the design helped to minimize broken chips, it also made them harder to reach as you went deeper in the can—a problem that's now solved thanks to this brilliant contraption that looks kind of like a shoe horn that mated with a slap wrap bracelet.

Welcome To The Humble Indie Store
by Shane Roberts
The Humble Bundle has long been the best value in gaming, and things are about to get even less humble with the debut of the new Humble storefront. Humble has been letting indies use their checkout system for a while now, so it's no surprise that they're formalizing the whole thing into a browsable experience. We expect prices here to be in line with competing sales from Steam, but Humble takes a smaller cut, and gives 10% to charity.

Clever Numbered Spoons Guarantee You'll Never Forget a Measurement
by Andrew Liszewski
When you're working your way through all the ingredients in a complex recipe, you can easily lose track of how much of this or that you've measured. Or at least Japanese designer Atsuhiro Hayashi does, which inspired him to create a set of measuring spoons with numbers in relief that leave no question as to how much has been portioned.
