Need to keep the riff-raff off the roof of your shiny new commuter train? Do what Indonesia's state railway did and just sweep the little bastards off with a broom made of suspended concrete balls. Remember to duck!
In addition to shutting down Megaupload, the Department Of Justice made another choice chunk of information public last night: evidence of multiple Silicon Valley companies conspiring to not poach each other's employees. On the surface, it may sound like tepid HR industry fodder, but it's something that affects all of us through the products we use.
Even industrial shipping containers wear out eventually. But rather than scrap them, Starbucks' in-house architects upcycled the containers into a unique drive-through cafe.
Europe's collaborative nEUROn drone may be late to the invisible death from above party, but it sure is compensating with some scary looks. Check out the Cylon mug on this puppy as it greets the world for the first time.
The scientists who created an airborne and extremely contagious strain of bird flu say they are temporarily halting their research for 60 days. Oh good! Looks like we don't have to be cripplingly terrified until April.
You've taken the plunge. Your iOS device is jailbroken. And now it's time to head straight to Cydia and download all those illicit apps that'll supercharge your iPhone or iPad.
According to Megaupload's attorney Ira Rothken, Professor Swizz "I Sleep With Alicia Keys Every Night" Beatz of New York University isn't CEO of the clobbered site. Rather, VentureBeat reports, he was "negotiating" for the position. Let's assume negotiations are over.

It took a while, but owners of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 finally have an untethered jailbreak. Yup, it's time to start putting ROM apps on our iOS A5 devices.
Birds have always fascinated humans. Their flight has inspired writers, artists and engineers to create poems, legends, novels, airplanes and superheroes. The new BBC documentary Earthflight captures this fascination in a way that nobody has before. It's awesome.
Just kidding. It's not really, well, not for you. But amongst teenagers, sharing passwords is apparently the best way to demonstrate your love, trust and, uh, stupidity.
You will never be happier to see a 404 error than if you land on this one from a Russian construction company whose web engineers clearly have a sense of humour. The stick figure dancing is delightful, and the dude bobbing his head along is the icing on the cake.
Filmmaker Casey Neistat shows a neat trick that can turn a shot full of water into a shot filled with whiskey all through... magic? Sleight of hand? Devil's work? Destiny? No. DENSITY.

We've always believed in the potential of video games. As a medium, there's no limit to the kinds of stories it can tell or the emotions it can explore. That said, it's still a surprise to play something like JAZZ: Trump's Journey. On the one hand it's just a platform adventure.
