  • Lego Battlestar Galactica Madness

    This is just a fraction of the 35 Vipers and other BSG-themed Lego creations shown off at ‘BrickCon‘ last year. Gizmodo has an in-depth gallery in their post on the matter, and now I want one of these. I wonder if any of these guys has a parts list or build out there…

  • xkcd – The End Is Not For A While

    This may be old news to some of you, but apparently Microsoft has put a feature in IE 8 (currently in beta) called ‘InPrivate‘. It lets you browse without saving any history, cookies, or other information. Good for security, but also for your porn habits. Theoretically speaking, of course. H/T to Gizmodo.

  • I'm Gonna Sink This Bitch

    If you’ve never seen Mystery Science Theater 3000, you owe it to your funny bone to check out these clips, and then click/buy some Rifftrax from the occasional ad on the right. Big McLargehuge!
