Taking it back to the basics – real basic.
These cupspeakers are the creation of Dmitri Zagga. Reliving your childhood spy games with a paper cup and a long string can now be realized. But I must commend the ingenuity with this creation. Oh and it’s part of the whole iPod accessory thingy.
You know what else an iPod charger can do besides, well, charge your iPod? You can use it as a weapon to protect yourself from rapists. Seriously.
The police arrested a serial rapist suspected of raping a woman on Staten Island over the weekend. The Advance reports NYPD received a tip on their CrimeStoppers hotline and picked up 23-year-old Thomas Fields, who was picked out of a line-up. Also: “Sources told the Advance the woman fought back during the rape by jabbing her iPod charger into Fields’ neck. He still bore two prong marks on the neck from the charger.” Fields had grabbed the victim and dragged her behind a church. A neighbor who heard the woman’s screams call 911; when police arrived, Fields allegedly said, “It’s cool. She’s my girl,” before escaping, but leaving behind a yellow jacket with Sylvester the Cat on it. Fields raped two women when he was 15; he was convicted and sentenced in 2001 and released on parole last year.
Need some help walking because your knees are buckling from the excess weight?
It looks like you don’t even need to put effort in walking no-more….oh the humanity.
Well, I think this is a rather novel idea. I like the fact that SOMEONE from Target was thoughtful enough to think that a simple gift card (no matter the amount) is not very grand but if you made it into a disposable camera, it becomes interesting. The camera runs on two AAA batteries, has a self-timer, and is packaged with a USB cord, driver disc, instruction manual and a voucher for 40 free prints from Target. The camera itself is a 1.2-megapixel affair with 8MB of memory on-board, which means it can store about 50 images.
Coolest gadgets
Being disabled does not stop KitsuneYume from playing his favorite games but controllers can be quite tricky when you do not have full manoeuvrings of your hands. But it’s okay, you can use your toes instead. KitsuneYume modded the PS3 into a toe console where he can use to play his favorite games like Heavenly Sword, Mirror’s Edge, Eternal Sonata, etc etc..
He said, “The main reason I put this on the PlayStation website was to show people that even the most limited person can still enjoy console gaming just as much… anyone else. the controller was pretty easy to make except for converting the analog signals into digital signals for when I use the various switches. this took about two months to build and get working effectively.”
Nicely done, KitsuneYume…
If he decides to do this for a living i think he’d make big bucks. If a disabled man can do something purposeful like modding consoles and showing the world he can kick ass in videogames, mentally and physically able bodied beggars on the streets can do better too.
The iPod is the only deserving material that has ever come out of the Apple brand *ducks pot and pans thrown by Apple fans*. Look, there’s a reason why I said this review is undeserving. It’s because it’s coming from me, a certified anti-Apple philistine.
Recently, I made a purchase on the 4th generation iPod Nano because my previous iPod Nano (2nd Gen) had the “white screen of death”. That basically renders my iPod Nano into an iPod shuffle…a $54 dollars rendering that still has me pulling my hair but I digress, i love my current iPod Nano for the simple fact that it is slimmer, with a curvaceous body and holds a lot more space for less than what I paid for (or whoever who paid for me, as it was a gift). I also love the fact that it is in the color I chose, yellow, and that it had a color screen that does more than just look pretty.
The intelligent screen adjusts to how your iPod is tilted and it even shuffles to the next song when you give it a shake. I know, I know, I have fallen for a gimmicky trend that Apple has forever used on its fanbase – make it look pretty, charming and make it useful for the most useless of things: music. Seriously, carrying 3000 song and do you listen to all 3000 of it? Unless you work in an environment where you get paid for listening to music, i doubt you’d even skim the foam of 300 daily. But anyway, anyway, anyway, the new iPod Nano has me in deep…oh fuck you, Apple…why did you have to create something so perfect and yet so useless?????
There is no need to speed up the culture of materialism, isn’t it?
What else? What else?
My yellow iPod Nano has an inscription on the back that says “This [insert sex here; gender, you pervert] sleeps with butterflies”. It makes it all the more endearing when we can customize it.
One gripe though, I find the Genius Bar in the iPod Nano to be demeaning to our intellect. We already have gadgets that help us crack and egg, do we really need a *genius* bar to help us pick our music? Well, maybe for the lazy asses who don’t want to use an iota of brain think this is a good feature. I think it’s Steve Jobs trying to put his paws on our individuality because he’s such a control freak – go figure, his Macs are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO clean and virus free but hell, that’s just mainly because Macs are incompatible with so many programs. When you live in a controlled environment, it means your live in a place where the sort of diseases or viruses are controlled too. So, no Macs are not better than PCs because they live in a sheltered life – it just means they’re virgins – just like how the aliens in the movie War of the Worlds got pwnnedd by airborne bacterias and microorganisms in our air. They were in their little bubble heads and then when it’s out in the real world, they just die from diseases. this is what’s gonna happen when we take Steve Jobs out of the picture…Apple products, might just die.
Now how did I go off tangent from the iPod Nano, now? Okay, it’s a great gadget and worth getting because after all the generations, they’ve come pretty close to perfection on this one.
With the rollercoaster ride on the current world economy, you gotta merge to survive. The news that Panasonic is buying up Sanyo has been up in the airs for a while now but it is only current that both electronic corporation came to the agreement. Panasonic will be buying up Sanyo – or should I say helping out? Sanyo will still retain it’s brand name and most of its employees. If that’s not generousity, then I don’t know what is.
The merge will result is a 11.2 trillion yen of revenues and that, my friends, means we will be seeing more robots and awesome TVs.
A man name Freud was so obsessed with the fear of being buried alive built himself a tomb equipped with TV, food and fresh air. For fresh air, he has a tube that runs up 6ft above ground. The tube also has megaphones that would allow him to shout for help in case he wasn’t really dead. LOL
Geezus…the gadget gods are laughing at this one.
