Never in the history of cinema have we seen a film that’s almost as long as the history of cinema.
MoldytoasterMedia’s epic masterpiece, simply titled The Longest Video on YouTube, is an exquisite piece of work examining the essence of humanity contrasted with the fragility of life and the existential nothingness of un-being.

For those who believe that using the BitTorrent protocol for piracy is a young person’s game, you might want to know about a San Francisco woman risking a potential $150,000 fine for torrenting porn.
She’s 70 years old, you see.
Of course, she claims to not even know what BitTorrent is, but who can believe the word of a thief? …
This is not what you think it is. It’s a talking robot, modeled on the human vocal system. And hey, check it out: it can sing! Kinda.
Wait, you say. Robots can already talk. Hell, even my laptop can talk, and I got it at Walmart.

Yes, those things can talk, but only using software and …
All that fine print that you and I and everyone else who’s not studying to be a lawyer skips over when installing software is called the EULA—end user license agreement. The one for Apple’s iTunes software (warning—it’s a PDF and it’s reaaaallly long) may very well contain some useful information.

A high school freshman in China apparently sold his kidney on the black market so he could buy an iPad 2. Read that again, if you must.
The story, reported in The Global Times, Shanghai Daily, and elsewhere, says that 17-year-old “Zheng” got himself hooked up with a kidney broker on the internet, who offered him a little over $3,000 …
The next iPhone case you purchase will surely be this $35 Steve Jobs in Carbonite masterpiece found over on Society6.com’s website.
“But Doug, $35 is far too expensive for a plastic iPhone case,” you say. Remember the part about how it’s Steve Jobs in Carbonite, though.
While it’ll almost certainly be your next iPhone case, Wired …
We’ve all been there. Does this sound familiar to you?
You’re at work and you realize you forgot to mow your lawn. You rush home in a panic. You miss several important meetings—or meetings that your company considers important, yet you’ve calculated how much it’d cost to build a lifelike dummy of yourself that lives in the …
I’d actually like to see this. So would Harry, I’m sure.
Lenovo seems dead serious on bringing a 23-inch tablet to market this year. It’d apparently be portable in the sense that you’d move it around the house with you but beyond that, it’d only serve to fetch you weird looks on the bus if you actually left the house with it.

The cloud? Good. No girlfriend? Bad. A cloud-based girlfriend? Better than no girlfriend, apparently.
The idea behind Cloud Girlfriend is simple: You pay a yet-to-be-determined price to have your ideal (yet not for real) girlfriend leave you loving messages on your Facebook Wall for all to see.
It’s an easy four-step process, says …
That question was phrased poorly.
You won’t be doing much of anything at your funeral. But would you want your funeral to be webcast for those who can’t attend? The practice is growing in popularity, according to a recent USA Today article.

The fact that it took until 2011 for this to exist should make us all sad. But that sadness should only last for a short while because an invention as epic as the Radio Toaster brings only joy. And toast. And music!
The toast portion… well, makes toast. The radio portion does AM and FM, features 10 station presets and sports an …
Nikon has filed a patent in Japan for a built-in DSLR projector, which should come in handy should you be the type to always carry a blank wall in your camera bag.
