I think some ads could easily qualify as art. It's just that the vast majority tend to pander to the lowest common denominator and are anything but art.

I'd give it a week, before some uptight senator complains about all the nudity being a disgrace to their god and complaining about how he had to explain what art is to the young children he fathered with his mistress. Followed by legislation to place black block censor stickers on anything anyone might find slightly…

Man I love photography, but the glass... oh the glass.... it's stupidly expensive.

I've got a home made RepRap Mendel Prusa 3D printer I built and it uses spools of ABS or PLA. The spools are sold by the kilogram a 1kg spool (2.21 pounds) sell for $30-40. 3D printing software can usually reduce the infill of objects by doing a criss cross or honeycomb pattern so it's not completely solid plastic…

Custom chess sets generally look really cool, but I've always hated playing with them. The classic Staunton chess pieces are designed so that a quick glance of the board will tell you everything since the top of each piece is unique and easily discernible and their height is tied to the points each piece is worth…

This kind of stuff is so exciting, I know it's got a lot of years still before we begin to see these advances in consumer goods. They still have a lot to figure out about how graphene works and then they still need to figure out how to mass produce it at an economical level (one of the reasons large scale carbon…

I did not know that Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo had grown up!

Probably my least favorite of the Doctor's companions. Although after a few episodes she kind of grows on you, but she had redeeming qualities and wasn't entirely worthless as a sidekick. I'm not familiar with her as a comic so don't know if the character she played was essentially her standup character or it was…

I'm so disturbed right now, mainly because I want a jawbreaker..... that's not right.

Completely and utterly overkill... you beautiful bastard.

Excellent point, although I'm still confused by the observable science and "historical" science. Since using that argument would also nullify everything in the bible since no one alive today was there to see the exchange between the men writing the bible and god talking to them. It's weird that I'm not a fan of the…

I'm down in Juneau and it was almost 50 degrees last week in the middle of the night. It was kind of surreal standing outside a bar on Front Street smoking a cig in a t-shirt and jeans and being totally comfortable. Last summer was really dry here for us too, so with such little snow this winter and very little…

You hear a lot about how crazy Californians are, but not so much about Alaskans. That's because we generally don't let people escape to tell their stories. Have fun with the invasion, we've got our polar bear tossing catapults lined up along the beaches. Hopefully you people don't try and attack with those new…

Thanks for the flashback, now I gotta go make my own radio with a crystal and metric ton of super fine copper wire.... My uncle always got me this kind of stuff for birthdays and Christmas when I was a kid. I blame him for my obsession with building electronics with Arduino's and building a 3D printer.... he planted…

I work in I.T. and do a lot of back end database work for websites as well as a fair bit of programming and EET work. Every time I start a new job at a business I get hit up by so many people who want me to fix their home computer for them. More often than not they want it done for free or they'll buy me a six-pack…

Perfect! The crap bouncing around in the back of my girlfriends Durango has been annoying me like nothing else. Now she can have a few crates to store stuff in so it doesn't bounce around the rear end of the truck while driving.

Damn, when I saw the pic I just thought you were a photoshop master.... I guess it could be a real movie... hell if Sharknado was a "real" movie I guess anything can be...

I have some old milk crates, now I'm thinking about putting velcro on the bottom of two of them and sticking them in my girlfriends Durango to keep stuff from sliding around in the back of it. Cheap useful solutions are my favorite!
