Bill Jobs is one smart, rich, and disturbing looking man
Filed under: Apple Fanboyism, Humor, Steve Jobs, That's Weird..., video
Everyone knows Mac and PC users are so genetically different that they cannot produce offspring, but what if they could…? Celebrity Morphing decided to do the unthinkable, morph Steve Jobs and Bill Gates and see what their Proposition 8 love child might look like. Behold Bill Jobs.
Thanks to faithful Macenstein reader Mike for the link!
The funniest thing Steve Jobs ever said
Above: Don’t let anyone tell you Steve Jobs doesn’t have a sense of humor – after all, he did found his company on April 1st.
Now, normally I like to think that Steve is an honest man, but listen to him stutter over that line… even HE can’t believe that particular line of bullshit.
Visual Aid: Why Jailbreaking is still cool
With the app store now offering 95% of the functionality of a Jailbroken iPhone, sometimes it’s easy to forget how cool Jailbreaking an iPhone is. In fact, I’d put it right up there with smoking. Faithful Macenstein reader Jeremy sent in a visual reminder for all of us who have forgotten that visual customization is as much a part of Jailbreaking an iPhone as adding unsanctioned apps.
Check it out, Jeremy is apparently providing his own cell service! You can’t tell me that isn’t going to get him some ladies! (Although he appears to only be an EDGE network… so the girls might not be “3G hot”.)
Fembot application means the iPhone is now perfect
Whether you love it or hate it, the one thing everyone agrees on is that the iPhone was missing is a Fembot application. Without a small metal woman who can do the macarena, we all might as well be using a LG VX8300. Well, you’ll be happy to know that the Fembot app has finally arrived, and the iPhone is now perfect.
“Your Fembot can do many moves, actions, gestures, and even dance for you! She will wave, slap, cough, fire a bow and arrow, do the macarena dance, paint, mime, laugh, line dance, flex her muscles, salute, swim, or perform a summoning spell, and much more — all at your command.”
mmm… line dancing at my command… Good thing my Mophie Juice Pack arrived, as I am now sure to be draining my iPhone battery at an insane rate. I mean, coughing and summoning spells?!?! She may be the perfect woman.
The idea of the “game” is you need to figure out the 100 or so combination of touches determines what “subroutines†Fembot performs. Moves are started by a simple double-tap or combination of two swipes, taps, a tap and a swipe, or longer combinations (but not much longer). Somehow I have a feeling that whatever “subroutine” Fembot does when her breasts are rubbed continuously is the only one most users will see, so hopefully it’s not the Macarena.
Behold iStik: The magnetic iPod nano bikini holder
Filed under: Hardware, That's Weird..., design, iPhone, iPod nano
Just as I still get nervous when my MacBook goes through the airport scanners, somehow the idea of putting powerful magnets next to my iPod still freaks me out, no matter how safe an electrical engineer assures me it is. Still, iStik’s magnetic cases for the nano appear to be the best thing to happen to bikini bottoms since the Coppertone dog.
Actually, there are no magnets being used in this shot – the nano holding on all by itself. It took 3 men to reluctantly pry it off. Just place one side of the iStik’s magnets on either side of your clothing (thinner material is recommended) and go about your workouts without having to worry about such annoyances as armbands, pockets, or people not looking at your ass.
Currently the cases only support the nano, but cases are being rolled out soon for the iPhone and iPod touch. iStik claims they have had an electrical engineer test the effects of the iStik’s powerful magents, and they are confident they will not damage your iPod in any way. The secret is that since the flash-based nanos have no moving parts in them, the magnets can do no harm. Hmmm… Somehow it still sounds wrong to me, but hey, I’m not an electrical engineer.
It will be interesting to see how well the iStik attaches the much heavier iPhone onto bikini bottoms. VERY interesting, in fact. Perhaps iStik will release some magnetic suspenders to help support the devices.
