Movie screener season is here~!
Posted on December 16, 2009 | No CommentsThe Golden Globe nominees were announced yesterday, and I'm going to go with Paul O and Ron's (from Ron and Fez… seriously, I have XM on all day long) conclusion that this year has been a fairly weak one. There were a few good films (I enjoyed Inglourious Basterds, and I want to see Up in the Air and The Informant and A Serious Man) but does anything really seem like an Oscar lock? I think not. Thank God for leaked screeners!

Why play through Modern Warfare 2 single-player when you can watch this 60-second synopsis?
Posted on November 23, 2009 | No CommentsIs saying “I play Modern Warfare 2 for the single-player” the new “I read Playboy for the articles”? It might as well be. But get this: I play Modern Warfare 2 for the single-player. I stink at multi-player, so why even bother? That said, I know that many of you bought the game merely to play the multi-player, and thus have no idea what the single-player's story is about. Thank God for this video, then.

An asteroid almost smashed into Earth, and we only knew about it 15 hours before it happened
Posted on November 12, 2009 | No CommentsDid you hear the news? An asteroid passed within 8,700 miles of the planet on Friday. The craziest thing is that scientists only knew about it 15 hours before it flew by. So if you have any confidence that this planet is safe from giant space objects smashing into the surface, possibly destroying all life in the process, well, think again.

USB-powered gloves that keep your fingers warm (but why?)
Posted on November 9, 2009 | No CommentsMy first reaction - when I saw today on Thanko's web site that the notoriously silly gadget maker from Tokyo is selling USB-powered gloves with built-in heaters [JP] - was: Who actually buys this kind of stuff? I mean Thanko is a real company, they have brick-and-mortar stores in Tokyo (two of them), they have employees etc. But they have been surviving for years now, even though they closed their English online store last month.

The Future: 3.3mm-thick Samsung TV
Posted on October 26, 2009 | No Comments
If you think about it, you'll probably only need to hang your flat panel TV on the wall once. Maybe twice. Maybe three times if you really move around a lot, like in the middle of the night when you hear a knock on your door and thank god you slept in your clothes because there's only enough time to put on a pair of Velcro shoes and grab your 40-inch TV.

Sad: Captain Lou Albano, who played Mario in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, has died
Posted on October 15, 2009 | No CommentsI am so sorry, you guys. I was AFK yesterday, and no one else on Team CG thought it was important to bring you this sad news: Captain Lou Albano, who you may remember as Mario from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, passed away yesterday. He was 76.

Theory: Danger’s Sidekick data explosion was (DUDUNT! DUDUNT!) sabotage?
Posted on October 14, 2009 | No Comments
I can't stand it, i know you planned it
Ima set it straight, this Watergate
I can't stop textin' when i'm in there
'cause your crystal ball ain't so crystal clear
So, while you sit back and wonder why
I'm missing my pics when I slide my 'Kick
Oh my god, it's a mirage
I'm tellin' y'all it's sabotage
So,so,so, so listen up 'cause you can't say nothin'
You shut me down with a push of your button
But AppleInsider knows why your data's gone
I'll tell you now I keep it on and on:
...someone with access to the servers at the datacenter must have inserted a time bomb to wipe out not just all of the data, but also all of the backup tapes, and finally, I suspect, reformatting the server hard drives so that the service itself could not be restarted with a simple reboot (and to erase any traces of the time bomb itself)... If this was an ordinary sort of failure, the service would have come back within a day, so once again, all signs point to sabotage.

Gigantic iPhone charger packs 3000mAh battery
Posted on October 7, 2009 | No Comments
Whoever manipulated the above image to make this humongous iPhone battery pack look relatively manageable ought to be given a raise. Conversely, whoever wrote “It is not bulky either as it just extends a little at the bottom” in the product description ought to immediately undergo a workplace evaluation. If it happens to be the same person who handled both the photo and the product description, then God help us all.

Music is forever changed: Sony Ericsson’s MH907 headphones sense when they’re in use
Posted on September 22, 2009 | No CommentsWe (well, I) completely forgot about the BIG Sony Ericsson announcement that went down yesterday. It may have to do with the fact that nobody e-mailed us (well, me) about it, and that the FCC announced its Net Neutrality deal. Be that as it may, we now know, definitively, what Sony Ericsson was on about last week: yes, it's a pair of headphones that sense when they're in use. People are dancing in the streets already.

Waterproof universal remotes for droolers, spillers, and pool owners
Posted on August 28, 2009 | No Comments
If you think a waterproof remote control is a good idea, then you're either clumsy, have kids, or you own a pool and around the pool there's at least one TV and when people come over, they're like "Holy smokes, you have an outdoor TV? By your pool, no less?!!" Oh, and you should probably live in Japan because that's where these waterproof universal remotes from Sony will be available at first.

WiFi detecting cap detects WiFi, deflects funny, attractive people
Posted on August 24, 2009 | No Comments
In the Old West a man was defined by his hat. Stetson, Ten-Gallon, and Bowler were only three of the myriad hats available to a real man and these hats often stank of pomade and sweat and were frequently infested with lice and caked in a fine crust of dandruff. The Old West totally sucked.
Thank God we live in the New West because now, for $14, you can wear a WiFi detecting cap that shows current WiFi levels in your general vicinity. It comes in two styles - circular and, apparently, Engadget- and comes in black, red, or white.

Otherwise delicious-looking hamburger flash drive ruined by weird product image
