So I took the time and braved the crowds this holiday weekend and went and saw “Wanted” this weekend. While the theater was filled with “too cool and tough for this shit” teenagers dumb enough not to shut off their cell phones, it was thankfully bereft of small children, for whom the movie is [...]
Check out this one from Art Lebedev. Here’s the short version, each key has a tiny microchip and display screen. So if you don’t want your K key to have a K, but rather a Nekid image of some tasty morsel, you just upload that image to the key chip and presto. Now you have a [...]
So we thought we’d try something new. Something involving sacrifice by us in a brave attempt to enhance or better your life. Something for which we would ask no thanks, but go forth proud in the knowledge that we had suffered on behalf of our fellow man.

South Park Studios, a new venture from the [...]
