Look at this joke of an image. It's so stupidly absurd that either the Chinese government photoshoppers didn't really give a f*ck about it, or they are the most incompetent Photoshop operators on the planet. Read More >
Have you ever wondered how the mini-robots of the future are going to be able to reach your head and deliver their deadly venom into your neck when the machines inevitably take over the world? Wonder no more -- meet the clothing clambering robot that'll climb up your back and sit on your shoulder, which could apparently be the future of the mobile phone. Read More >
Google's finally been given the go-ahead from the Chinese authorities for its £8 billion absorption of Motorola, marking the last hurdle to Googlerola crossed. Speculation is rife over what Google will actually do with Motorola -- perhaps yet more nuclear patent war, or even its own expanded phone line. Whatever happens, rest assured Android will remain free and open for all for at least five years, so your no-name, cheap and crappy Android tablets will still be there for you. Read More >

Over in China, a very strange knock-off Apple store has emblazoned our esteemed logos doing the, um, nasty as the logo for the shop. Not the most conventional way to brand your shop, but each to their own. Either way, I throw this over to you, our esteemed readers, to give us a caption. We might throw you a brownie or an e-hug for the best one. [MicGadget, Thanks, Darrell!] Read More >
I'm not quite sure what the world famous Italian sports car manufacturer was thinking, but even I could work out that doing donuts on top of an ancient Chinese monument isn't going to go down all that well. It's not like the showboaters just drove up there either; they had to winch a 458 all the way up on top of the wall before performing the "damaging acts". Read More >

What do you do when your favourite porn actress just won't follow you back on Twitter? After repeated begging to get some attention, you take her to court of course, because that's going to work out just great. Incredibly, that's what one incensed Chinese man did, when the star of Big Tits Zombie and Revenge: A Love Story ignored his 140-character advances. Read More >
The Express Rail Link West Kowloon Terminus, when completed (sometime in 2015), will be the world's largest underground high-speed rail station, occupying a whopping 4,628,481sq/ft! Its surreal modern design is the work of international architectural studio Aedes, who with it demonstrate the interconnectedness of architecture and technology. Read More >

Meth and drones, meth and drones—there's hardly a more imaginable combo that pairs better. The chips and gravy of espionage. At least according to a Taiwanese duo, accused of an attempt to smuggle out military secrets and drugs to China. Read More >
This sewer runs along Zhengshang Road, in Zhengzhou, China. On April 21st, the strangest thing happened overnight: it got covered with pill capsules. Pill capsules everywhere, gazillions of them, turing the water into a gross soup of colourful molecules. Read More >

I’ll never take a solid piece of ground for granted again after seeing this poor Chinese girl captured on CCTV falling right through the pavement, totally disappearing into a large invisible sinkhole that had been eroded underneath. Read More >

Though you might say you'd give your left arm for an iPad, you only mean it figuratively. But one Chinese teen actually sold his kidney to make enough money to buy the Apple tablet and an iPhone, and now five people have been charged with intentional injury in the case. Read More >
