Last Call: The Best Remaining Black Friday Deals
Did Black Friday catch you off guard by starting on Sunday? Were you
doing something silly on Thanksgiving like enjoying dinner with your
families? The middle-of-the-night limited quantity deals are gone, but
there's a ton of great stuff left. We're rounding the best of it up for
you right here.
Watch Kevin Spacey Be Nice, Then Evil in '21'
The most recent instalment in the Call of Duty franchise
is notable — not because of the running around and blowing stuff up,
that's dull — but because Kevin Spacey plays a genuine, multi-faceted
character. He starts out nice, and ends up trying to destroy the world
with poison gas whilst being a racist or something.…
Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' Will Remind You Why Albums Are Great
One
common criticism of the modern digital music industry is that the
album, as an artistic concept, is being destroyed by the endless
streaming of individual tracks. That's a shame, because it would mean
that some incredible albums, like Pink Floyd's The Wall (which celebrates its 35th birthday tomorrow) might never…
Rock-Inspired Tables Bring The Outdoors In
Decorating
with a nature theme is all well and good, but hauling two-ton boulder
up three flights of stairs gets old quick. That's why these tables,
inspired by rocks but weighing significantly less, could make so much
sense. Well, that, and they look sweet.
These Dollar Bill Concepts Are Better Than The Real Thing
While U.S. currency does change a little on occasional, the basic design of the notes has stayed fairly constant:
green/black background, a portrait on one side, and a pretty picture on
the other. These concepts take that classic design, and turn it on its
head.
What's The Best Easter Egg On The Internet?
The
Easter egg as a concept can be dated back to rich aristocrats hiding
things inside priceless jewellry. But in the modern age, you're far more
likely to encounter one when you Konami-code a website, or made some
odd menu choices in a game.
Who Said It First Tracks Down the First Tweet on Any Topic
Ever
wonder who said something first on Twitter? Now that Twitter's opened
up its archive of tweets, you can easily figure that out. Who Said It
First is a search tool that'll help you do just that.
Razer's slightly crazy Nabu
fitness band finally has a price and release date: $100, launching this
Tuesday in North America. If you're wondering what happens when a
gaming company makes a fitness wearable, take a look at our initial impressions. [Razer]
Of Course Someone Has Recreated The New Star Wars Trailer In Lego
I'm just taking it as read by this stage that you've seen the trailer for the new Star Wars movie. But you can't claim true nerddom until you've seen this incredible Lego recreation.
These Wirelessly Powered Christmas Lights Would Decorate Tesla's Tree
Now
that you've polished off the last of the turkey leftovers, it's
probably time to think about rolling your catatonic body off to find a
Christmas tree. Unfortunately, that also means trying to untangle the
seven miles of tree lights, a solid 50 percent of which will have broken
in the last year.
All The Best Images From NASA's Black Hole Friday
In
a proud and noble tradition stretching back a whole two years, NASA
yesterday did Black Hole Friday, rather than just flogging a few Apollo
mini-figs for 25 percent off. We got science, we got knowledge, and of
course, a bunch of jaw-dropping images of black holes. Here are the
best.
iOS 8.2 Has Been Jailbroken Before It's Even Released
The
8.2 version of iOS is still in beta and unavailable to non-developers,
but that hasn't stopped Chinese-based outfit TaiG from breaking it free
from Apple's shackles (and also jailbreaking 8.1.1, the current release,
in the process).
Here's an Extremely Rare 10% Off Deal on Google Play Credit
We see deals on iTunes credit pretty often, but Google Play gift cards almost never go on sale. Snap these up while you can.
Let's Take A Deep Look At The Droid In The New Star Wars Trailer
Look, there's no point in trying to act all cool: we're all pretty excited about the new Star Wars trailer. Our pals at iO9 did a great scene-by-scene breakdown
of it, but I want to focus on just one bit of important hardware seen
in the trailer — that fast little droid with the spherical body.
This Wireless Thermometer is the Perfect Gift for Your Favorite Chef
If you're still checking the temperature of your food by opening up the
oven or grill to look at a thermometer, it's time to level up. This wireless thermometer from Maverick is only $50 today with promo code EDYPAZML, and it comes packed with features:
Why I Left My iPhone 6 For an iPhone 5S
A
week after the iPhone 6 launch, I found myself drunk, eligible for a
contract phone upgrade, and holding my finger perilously close to the
checkout. $200 for Apple's latest seemed like a no-brainer. Two months
of less-than-blissful life with the 6 later, and I'm switching back.
The Rise Of The Double-Yolk Egg
For
decades, double-yolk eggs have been meticulously erased from the
American food-buying experience. But with the rise of trendy all-natural
diets, and a general fuck-you attitude to cholesterol, double-yolkers
are back in vogue, so much so that one company is selling them by the
dozen.
The Complete Harry Potter Blu-rays are Heavily Discounted Today
If you have any Harry Potter fans on your holiday shopping list, here's a deal they'll love;
a 31 (yes, really) disc collector's set with all 8 movies and over 45
hours of special features for $100, an all-time low. This deal is only
available today, or until sold out.
Watch Android Auto And Apple CarPlay Go Head-To-Head
The team at 9to5Mac managed
to get their hands on a 2015 Hyundai Sonata, a car that's particularly
special in its ability to run both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
side-by-side. Thankfully, they did what every good gadgeteer should with the opportunity: an extensive comparison video.
Buy a Samsung 840 EVO SSD, Get Far Cry 4 for Free
Update: Amazon is now offering the same promotion, with the same prices. You can also get the game from Amazon with the 250GB model, which only costs $109.
This Ultra-Fast External Drive is Down to an All-Time Low Price
The WD My Passport Ultra is one of the most popular hard drives on Amazon (4.5 stars on nearly 5,000 reviews), a Wirecutter runner-up selection, and only $80 right now for 2TB on eBay.
For a point of comparison, Amazon has never offered it for less than
$99. Plus since it's eBay, you probably won't have to pay sales…
