Hasta La Gadget!

Showtime Anytime has been able to be accessed with a number of service providers, but one of the major players, Time Warner Cable, was absent from that list since the beginning. Starting today, however, TWC customers can begin accessing Showtime’s streaming offering, including via the iOS/Android applications and on the web. Naturally, you’ll need to have a Showtime subscription as part of your cable package to view the content — if that’s all taken care of, you’ll be ready to stream Dexter and Homeland in no time and anytime you want. And hey, Bright House Networks subscribers, this applies to you as well.

If you’d rather get hands-on with your Chromebook work sessions, Acer is looking to lend a hand. The company has outed the C720P: its first touchscreen Chromebook, and the first we’ve seen outside of Google’s own Chromebook Pixel — something that we’ve been expecting ever since more touch-enabled features showed up in stable Chrome OS builds. The Google-fied laptop sports an 11.6-inch HD LED display with 1,366 x 768 resolution alongside an Intel Celeron 2955U processor, 32GB SSD and 2GB DDR3 RAM. Weighing in at only 2.98 pounds and measuring 0.78 inch thick, the C720P claims up to 7.5 hours of battery life — an hour less than its Haswell-powered sibling, the C720. There’s both USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports, an HDMI jack, SD card slot and two years worth of 100GB Google Drive space for extra storage. Sound too good to pass up? Well, you’ll be able to snag one in early December for $299 — far less than the $1,299 Pixel — from Amazon, Best Buy and the Acer store. %Gallery-slideshow123362%

Bacon deodorant changes your body odor into bacon odor, making everyone around you hungry for a good breakfast. Hey, when you are sweating like a pig, you might as well smell like one.

Bacon Power stick deodorant is made with bits of real bacon, so you know it works. Fat men and dogs will follow you like the Pied Piper, but it’s worth it to smell good. However, cannibalism may be a problem. If you find yourself shipwrecked on an island with others or among other survivors of a plane crash, throw it as far away from you as possible if you want to live.

It is only $9.99(USD) from J & D’s. Don’t just smell good, smell delicious!

One of the coolest/creepiest features of the Xbox One is its ability to obey your spoken and flailed commands. But which speaks and flails will it understand, and which will be met with a blank Kinect stare? Don’t spend all Thanksgiving weekend trying to figure it out; just consult this handy chart from Microsoft’s own TechNet blog. Hi Kinect!
