Cords and cables are boring and they get in the way. At least you can add some flair to your wires with one or two of these little things called Scalers. These will look great hanging from your headphone cables too.
Made by NECA, these little movie characters look adorable and they just snap onto almost any cord. The currently available Scaler 1 series features all the best bad guys like: Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, the Predator and more! While the Scaler 2 series features Batman, The Joker, Spider-Man, and even the Knifehead from Pacific Rim and is available for pre-order with shipping scheduled for July of 2014.
These guys look pretty awesome and you have a lot to choose from. Buy them all and hang them everywhere. Your house will look super geeky.

The long-awaited offline mode for Maxis’ city-building game SimCity is rolling out Tuesday around the world. Maxis began the rollout at 6 a.m. PT and the developer warned players that some servers will be unavailable for the first few hours.
Of course, you’ll need an Internet connection to download the offline mode, included with Update 10, but after your download is done you can play offline to your heart’s content.
SimCity’s offline mode is entirely optional. Access to multiplayer, SimCity World, and Online Save Games is entirely unaffected by the arrival of the offline mode. In addition, all of your previously downloaded content is available in single-player and multiplayer.

It’s not so simple to become an electronic musician. The equipment is expensive. There’s not a good how-to book. It’s sometimes a little unclear what exactly electronic music is. That’s why the Contact musical interface is so intriguing.

The Anvil Problem
Posted in: Today's ChiliOver a decade ago I was a happy man. In about 2002 I bought an Archos Jukebox. It was 6GB monstrosity, clad in metal and full of huge batteries, and it contained a clicking, whirring 2.5-inch hard drive. I used it to listen to music and even hacked it to run a home-brew operating system complete with games and media controls. For a while I was quite content with my crazy MP3 player and, although… Read More
