    Researchers Bring the Touchscreen Off the Screen

    In addition to the sheer viability of this technology in the future, this bodes quite well for people like me who have an insatiable need to clean smudges and fingerprints off their screens.

    Neverwinter Enters Open Beta Next Week

    Albeit the fact that the game has really nothing to do with the gameplay mechanics of D&D (which in turn would probably be unpopular with the majority of people used to MMOs like WoW), it's still an awesome game according to most people who were in the closed beta. Also, the fact that the game...

    Egyptian Telecoms Ministry Appeals Against YouTube Ban

    The zealous stupidity...it's...overwhelming. It's like requesting a game gets shut down because one user voiced his opinion (albeit quite insulting). I don't suppose they understand the results of shutting down website of this scale (ie. massive revenue losses) Sometimes (read: all the...

    Poll: Next step in body modding, Laser eye-colour changing.

    Nope, I already have a whole range of my own coloured contact lenses. That and lasers can't make your eyes glow in the dark like some contacts.

    what the hell happened to runescape?

    They removed the random events that could kill you or break your equipment because too many people complained about them, pretty stupid in my opinion. OT: A friend of mine who's level 120 or so still plays Runescape, he's a member and he says that he doesn't see too many bots there and that...

    Your Nerdiest Dream

    There was this once strange dream I had, partially lucid, that was set in my school but if it were a COD map; I was master chief and all of my enemies were from the transformers series. I swear that dream was in HD too.

    Youtube etiquette

    Since you can put annotations that link to other things on your video I've seen a few times where people just put a giant clear annotation covering the whole video which is pretty annoying when you go to pause a video by clicking it and you end up getting linked to a confirm subscription page...

    Looking for music like this...

    <youtube=P3WJX1cIuY4> Melodic Death Metal at its finest. <youtube=fTpQOZcNASw> Cannibal Corpse after all, Nathan Explosion was based off Corpsegrinder (the vocalist).

    Poll: Star Wars and Halo share the same path!?!

    Did this just blow your mind? OT: Yeah, I liked Reach too.

    Bathroom walls, truly they are a source of awesomeness.

    On one of the toilet cubicle walls of the school I go to I wrote "Is this the real life?" (As in the first line of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen). By the end of the week almost the rest of the songs lyrics were written up... ...I've never been so proud of my school.

    Vegetarians and Growing Meat.

    Other people who are strict vegetarian/vegan might argue that eating anything that resembles meat and/or tastes like it is in sort of a way "cheating" vegetarianism (believe me I know these sorts of people). I however love the idea of synthetic meats and imitation meats; you get the taste of...

    Nerdiest thing you have said and/or heard someone say in public

    In my high school, as well as pretty much all others, almost every student plays COD and talks about it on a regular basis. One day during Physics class while working with circuits and soldering irons the power to the school, and the whole block, suddenly shut off and within 2 seconds of it...
