We’ve posted a few different computer hardware musical creations here over the years, but nothing on this scale, I don’t think. Polish engineer Paweł Zadrożniak built the Floppotron, a synchronized array of obsolete computer hardware programmed to play tunes. The current Floppotron 2.0 build sports 64 floppy drives, 8 hard drives, and a pair of …

If The Late Show Is Good Enough To Anger Trump’s FCC, It’s Good Enough For Me
I haven’t watched the Late Show since Letterman left because rare is the night when I’m not fast asleep by 11:30 and none of our good for nothing cable companies will get around to building me a DVR I can use, but if this is the sort of thing I’m missing I might have to …

If Real People Commercials Were Real For Real
It’s no secret that companies think we’re stupid and have no problem insulting our intelligence. To me one of the worst examples of this is the “we talked to real people to get their thoughts on our brand new…” type ad. Anyone with even the faintest snort of a clue knows that everybody in the …

Some Of History’s Worst Weaponry
If there’s one thing we’re good at in this world, it’s killing each other. We’ve come up with all sorts of brutally effective not to mention creative ways of doing it over the years, but not every idea is a winner. Chickens?
Regardless Of How Much Influence We Leverage, The Nature Of The Discourse Will Be Irreversibly Impacted
A couple of takeaways from this video: Language is going to evolve whether we want it to or not and there’s nothing we can do to stop it. By the time they’re my age now I won’t be able to talk to my nephews because they’re all going to sound like 2017 business assholes.

Trump Needs A Little Help
Once Donald Trump officially took office, he did what many new Presidents have done before him. He called a previous President for advice. I’m told this is satire, but I’m not buying it.
It Better Be A Good Prize If I’m Showing You That
This Oreo commercial is everywhere on TV lately, but no matter how many times I see it and how used to it I should be by now, the stupid thing catches me off guard every single time. Why? Well, just listen to the song. I don’t care what the contest is called or what the …

United Breaks Faces, Any Pretense Of Giving A Shit
Listen. We’ve all had a lot of fun with the whole United Breaks thing and we all know that United can go fuck itself right along with basically every other airline, but there are almost no words for this. https://www.facebook.com/audra.dickerson/videos/10104378182069960/ Quiz time. The distressed fellow in that video: A: Got past security and made his …
