Presenting: A Thing!

Spork Chops are Spork Chopsticks

We’ve seen different variants on the tried-and-true chopsticks, some of which are purely aesthetic, while others are trying very hard to improve your chopsticking endeavors by adding more useful utensils. The above pair of Spork Chops, with one stick topped with a small fork and the other topped with a spoon, ventures to make your not-sticky-enough Chinese food a little easier to deal with. These things are only $3.99 each, so you can order up a bunch if they revolutionize your day-to-day largely Asian food related lifestyle.

There are plenty of iPhone cases out there that boast some impressive features. We’ve got bulletproof iPhone cases, and self-defense iPhone cases that work well, and some that probably don’t. But how about an iPhone case that lets you mount your device on the nearest glass surfaces for, uh, whatever you might want to do that for? That’s what the Uguard Resin Skin can do. With the power of resin, the Uguard skin can temporarily mount your iPhone to a window like a gecko, no residue, no sticky stuff.

Cool Camera Trick Makes Water Appear To Freeze in Mid-Air, Flow Backwards

Anyone who’s played video games has had plenty of experiences with graphical glitches. Sometimes things clip through walls, or flash back and forth between two different positions, or sometimes they just flat out freeze up. Luckily, those kind of things can’t happen in real life. Or can they? No, they can’t, but a cool camera trick involving a subwoofer, a camera, and some flowing water can make it look like real life just glitched up, and make you do a double take.

PixelTable Rearranges Itself Around Your Needs, Is Basically A Bundle Of Sticks

Traditionally, a table or desk has finite surfaces and drawers that you, the humble user, are forced to use as they are. The 45 cm3 bamboo PixelTable by Studio Intussen, on the other hand, tries to turn that tradition on its head by allowing itself to be dynamically redesigned around whatever need you have at any particular moment. Need a surface? Pull a few beams out. Need a drawer? Push a few beams in. All done? Jam it back into a cube. It’s definitely a unique idea.

New CGI Envisioning of How the Titanic Actually Sank [Video]

Everyone knows that the Titanic sank almost 100 years ago when it hit an iceberg. That much is common knowledge. How exactly it sank, on the other hand, has been the focus of plenty of speculation. As a lead up for a new documentary on the legendary disaster that will air this Sunday, National Geographic has released a new CGI rendering of what the disaster looked like according to James Cameron and his team of researchers. 100 years later and we’re still trying to nail down the details, but we’ve figured out one thing for sure: Never call your ship unsinkable out loud, it’s bad luck.

You Can Play Video Games On This Microwave, Kind Of

Sure, you use your microwave to heat all kinds of meals and snacks. You couldn’t live without it. It keeps you alive. But did you know you can play video games on it? Well, you can’t really, unless you take an old microwave, gut it, and use its shell to house your computer. It’s not the most intuitive case mod, but that’s just part of its charm. Just imagine all the fun you could have with screensavers. Of course, it could mean that your computer will forever smell vaguely of old food, but let’s be honest, it probably does already.

Hacked Together USB Drive Generates and Enters Passwords For You

Creating, memorizing, and even just typing in passwords can be a serious drag. If you adhere to some of the more hardcore security personal security regimens, you’ll have to be walking around with a dozen or so unique, nonsensical, alpha-numeric, camel-capped character strings in your head at any given time. What a drag. So, what’s a guy to do? One option is to just have really crumby, reused passwords, another option is to hack together a USB drive that will generate, remember, and enter your password for you when you jam it into your USB drive. That’s what Joonas Pihlajamaa did.

Real-Life GoldenEye 64 Has Graphics That Are a Little Too Realistic

I’m all for realistic graphics, but this fan-made GoldenEye 64 mod – which is totally an actual GoldenEye 64 mod, for sure — takes it too far. It’s like it comes out of one uncanny valley and into the next. Maybe they should have but a little of that effort into improving Natalya’s AI instead of making sure the bad guys look like real people as they awkwardly crumble. I think I’ll just go play GoldenEye: Rogue Agent; that was way better than GoldenEye 64 anyways. I mean, at least it had an actual golden eye, right?
