Is it still a time-waster if it’s educational? Light Bot is a simple yet effective game for teaching the basic concepts of programming. From the use of functions for accomplishing repetitive tasks to the annoying European techno music in the headphones, it’s all here. Reminds us of a simpler Boku. Or Logo. [via Reddit]

Any of these prison escape stories would make an exciting movie (and some of them already have). Not all of the escapees were hardened criminals; some were prisoners of war, and Alfréd Wetzler (pictured) along with his partner Rudolf Vrba escaped from Auschwitz by hiding inside a wood pile for four days! He later provided extensive details of the death camp to Allied forces. The 32-page Vrba-Wetzler report, as it became known, was the first ...

This has to be the best way to use a Post-It note, ever. I feel sorry for the poor blonde, though. After she looks in the mirror, she is going spend all day wondering what the hell ”ENAJ” means!

Oh boy. A Christian preacher starts saying a Muslim woman is ignorant. He later says “Mohammad was a pedophile.” A Muslim girl punches him back. She then adds, “Don’t talk about my prophet! I’ll kill you!” … From what I can tell, the video is in favor of the preacher, as it tries to show that Islam is not a religion of peace. (Then again, Christian fundamentalists have no shortage of instances in which they’ve ...

Don't get me wrong, I am really looking forward to this game, but machine-gun-equipped, war-crying, kilt-wearing cartoon characters is a bit over the top. In this new video we get a look at all of the chaotic hilarity that will ensue in Victory Village. You can download and play the game free of charge later this year on PC.

From the fine folks behind the Han Solo in Carbonite Office Desk comes the next high-end, Star Wars-themed office equipment you desperately want but cannot afford—the Emperor's chair. The good news is, unlike the desk, there's five of them for sale; the bad news is that they're each $5000, so you can't afford one anyways. From the press release: Based on the client's requests and interests, artists Tom Spina and Richard Riley drew inspiration from ...
