XX,XXX< 50,000 Ipads orderd in 2 HOURS?!

Posted by DarkWolf80s in Announcements, Apple, Evil Company on March 14, 2010

Remember my article I wrote on Apple’s unveiling it’s latest Ipad product and how its going to fail miserably. I am not the only one who is saying this but a lot of bloggers and gadgets reviewers have said the same thing. Macrumors.com did a little investigation regarding how many people are going to pre-order the Ipad on March 12. Their investigation has ended with over 50,000 users placing pre-order for the Apple Ipad in just 2 freak’n hours!! All I can say is…. HAS THE WORLD GONE BONKERS?!!! I am willing to bet if Steve Job was to take a crap in his hand and calls it “Innovation” people are more than willing to buy it.

Education in a BOX!

Posted by DarkWolf80s in FUN! on March 11, 2010

I was shopping over at Lulu Hyper Market this afternoon to pickup some Quaker Oats and thought I’d checkout some of my old favorite cereal brands on the way. The first cereal to catch my eyes was Cookie Crisps. I love Cookie Crisp because they taste ridiculously good with hot milk. But what I like even more is what Nestle did with the free gift. They actually added a BOOK! Yes a book! Inside the box! Without the whole ordering crap. Nestle’s is basing this marketing campaign on the movie debut of Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl.

Out of all the free gifts that I have seen today this beats them all. Simply because it is encouraging kids to read and to have fun by enjoying a nutritional cereal at the same time. Brilliant move Nestle! Probably the best marketing campaign for a free gift in the box I have seen today.

If you love Cookie Crisps and you have never read any of Roald Dahl books; your missing out on some classical childhood stories. Now is a good time to pick one up for yourself or for your kids. They’re running a series of three Roald Dahl books Fantastic Mr. Fox, George’s Marvelous Medicine and The Twits. I only wished they added James and the Giant Peach or The Witches along with these free wonderful book series.

“No.” Sent from my iPhone

Posted by Loolykinns Teh P1r473 in Apple, Email Crappism, Exploring Computerism, FUN!, Mac, RAND(), Stupidity on March 10, 2010

I think I’m going to use that from now on

Some Swedish dude sent Steve Jobs an email asking him about tethering…

I’ll quote the email from GIZMODO:

I’ll keep it short.

I’m Jezper from Sweden, a long time Apple fan, currently about to replace the very last computer at home with a brand spanking new iMac i7. I’m also awaiting the release of the iPad. However, I have one question:

Will the wifi-only version somehow support tethering thru my iPhone?

Two devices, based on the same OS, with already built-in technology to share one data plan suggests a secondary contract could possibly be redundant.

From the look of your keynote, where the iPad sits well between my MacBook Pro and my iPhone, I was hoping the three of them could interact as seamless as possible.

All the best,
Jezper Söderlund

Here’s Steve Jobs’ reply

No.

Sent from my iPhone

So from now on, whenever you want to use “No” as a definite answer, tag “Sent from my iPhone” at the end of your sentence

Ooooh! Shiny Keyboard!!

Posted by Loolykinns Teh P1r473 in Concepts, Exploring Computerism, Fashion.. Wait!! What?!, RAND(), Technology on March 10, 2010

I hate the fact that it’s not not out yet -_-;

Look at it keyboard above!! It’s awesomely shiny!!

Anyway, I can safely consider this keyboard as a piece of art; futuristic looks, no keys or whatever (No need to worry about dusting it or thoroughly cleaning it up) and there’s some interesting technology in it as well…

This keyboard is made of backlights, force sensors, some new film stuffed somewhere inside.

Now I need a glass-looking computer case, glass looking screen, glass looking mouse, add some dancing LED lights somewhere in my room and it’ll be party tiem =D (NO! NOT PARTY IN MY TUMMY!!)

This shall end up in my “MUST HAVE” list… That I’ll need to create real soon

Real mice for real PCs

Posted by SIGTERMer in Hacks, RAND(), Technology, Weirdness on March 10, 2010

Yup, that mouse in the picture is a real mouse (part of it at least). some chick bought a mouse, ran a blade down its spine, pealed off its skin, and crammed a mouse inside of it. usually, I can stomach stuff like this, but this one is just plain sick (cool, but sick nevertheless). To get an idea on just how disturbing this gets, I’ll quote:

insert your fingers under the skin around the mouse’s torso to separate the skin from the body. This should be quite easy to do; just try not to punch through the abdominal wall into the stomach/guts area to avoid stinky smells. Sprinkle the Borax/cornmeal mixture into the nooks and crannies as you go.

I know this is usually Loolykinns’s line, but you really have to wonder what the kuwaiti version would be. my money is on a ‘9ab (Mastigure) keyboard XD

PS: if anyone actually has the stomach to pull this off, please try using it at your nearest coffee shop.
