malfunction by Cyriak – mental but fun.
Having a normal day? Everything a bit sameish? Got a couple of minutes to be weirded out? Good. Then watch this clip called “malfunction” by someone odd on the internet called Cyriak. I found it strangely uplifting. Enjoy.
New windowless planes
The idea the plane boffins have had is to get rid of all the windows and turn the walls into massive screens.

Turns out I’m an apathetic non-voting scumbag
I want to vote, I really do. Unfortunately, like a lot of the apathetic bloody populace these days, I don’t.

Augmented reality bus stop
I think they could go a lot further and have zombies, Triffids, psychopathic clowns, Daleks, Stormtroopers, Cthulu, Godzilla, the Borg, giant mechanoids, the Blob… well, I could actually go on all day.
