Aug 03, 10:00PM
Be honest, how often do you use unsecured Wi-Fi for something you shouldn't? You know, just a quick Facebook login at Starbucks. If you've done it even once, that's too much, because making a secret spy computer that can steal all that data is dumb easy. And cheap to boot.

A follow up to last year's very funny YouTube Complaints Department, this year's version is just as funny and just as timely with digs about Felix Baumgartner, your favorite YouTube videos and how YouTube only fixed that views bug to show 301+ and not just 301.

Nothing like a bit of the old ultraviolence to jump start a lethargic weekend. Equal parts Aeon Flux and Ghost in the Shell, this awesome animated short stars Tricia Helfer of Battlestar Galactica fame as she and a crack crew of infiltrators attempt a daring hostage rescue against an evil military-industrial complex. Be warned when I say "ultraviolence," we're talking dudes getting turned inside out and then exploding like meaty water balloons. Enjoy!

Aug 03, 12:30AM
This is insane. Well, only insane because I'm insanely jealous of amazing world crusader Graham Hughes. Hughes traveled to all 201 countries in the world plus 15 assorted territories without even flying. Even better, Hughes recorded a quick video of every single country he visited so we can all see what it's like to truly travel the entire world in 4 minutes.

Aug 02, 11:22PM
Because we're all basically pawns when it comes to billion dollar companies fighting over dollars, CBS has just blocked Time Warner Cable customers from watching any video on CBS.com. Basically, if you're a TWC customer and head to CBS.com, instead of CBS video, you'll see anti-Time Warner Cable ads. Classy.
