The Dumb Are Mostly Intrigued By The Drum

If you were thinking about buying yerself or a loved one a Nintendo DS anytime soon, you might want to hold off. Late last night, the money infused company announced an update to the stupidly popular portable gaming device in the DSi. Yup, just add an "i" to the end of it. And what do you get with that "i"? Well, you get a case design that is 12% thinner, bigger screens and here's the cool part: two cameras! Yup, not one but 2! "Now what would I need 2 cameras on a device like this?" is what I asked right before I slapped myself and said "More is less, stupid! They'll surely find use for it!" And the possibility of wi-fi video conferencing on my DSi became a prime selling point for me, if just for coolness factor. Wish my iPhone could do that. Unfortunately, the DSi won't be available here in the States until next year (you can always import one from Japan when they go on sale over there in November for around $180) but keep this in mind this holiday season: they're selling you last years model now, sun! Check out Engadget here for more details, pics & even a gameplay video.

This awesome story comes from Engadget and it answers my question of what would happen if I were to stick my hand in one of those laser etching machines. So I've always said that I'm too fat and too hairy to get a traditional tattoo. But this, this is something I can get behind...if I weren't so much of a pussy about trying untested method of body manipulation. I'll give it a couple of years and if everyone involved is still alive and no appendages have fallen off due to this method, I might consider doing this. Imagine: clean, vector crisp lines. Exact artwork to your very own liking. Yeah, that's dope...what do you think? Would you consider getting one of these? Check out the video below before you answer.

Just watch it and you'll see it. The pain. The agony. All of that just festering within the child with the force of a thousand exploding suns! But the story does end well, as someone has decided to step up and repair the damage done to the little guy, which you can read about here!
