This is a super short video of a raccoon reaching for a treat. It was posted by Youtuber lgreko100. I don’t know why it’s so damn funny to me, but it is. It just is, okay?! If you don’t like it, you can take it up with the raccoon in the video.

Way back in the early ’90s a movie called The Rocketeer hit theaters. It was really cool and followed the story of a stunt pilot named Cliff Secord as he found and learned to fly an awesome rocket pack. As it turns out all you really need to fly a jetpack safely is a cool helmet with a fin on top and a leather jacket.
If you are a fan of that flick, check out this action figure. It sort of looks like Billy Campbell from the movie and comes with two heads. One head has the gold helmet on and the other has no helmet. The rocket pack is also removable.
The jacket also comes with a removable flap to cover the rocket pack straps. You even get an old-fashioned gun that fits in his hand. The action figure is on ThinkGeek right now for $19.99(USD).
When you're doing an exercise upon yourself, your body generates lactic acid, the levels of which are considered to be the most accurate way to measure your performance during a workout. Unfortunately, you can only test lactate levels with a blood te... 
Ladies and gentlemen, get ready for some new Chromebooks. Yep, Google has just announced four new Chrome OS laptops, all of which lean toward the budget-friendly end of the spectrum. They are the ASUS Chromebook Flip, the ASUS Chromebook C201, the Hi... 
Google has unveiled a whole new type of Chrome device, and it's one that can fit in your pocket. It's called the Chromebit, and it's essentially a Chromebook crammed in a dongle. This tiny little package contains a Rockchip 3288 SoC, 2GB of RAM, 16GB... 
April’s Fool is just around the corner, and that means it’s time for Google’s yearly tradition of making fun little pranks, and adding “features” to some of its services. This year, at least one of these features is the ability to run a fully-functioning game of Pac-Man right in your Maps window, even in your own neighbourhood. Simply go to http://maps.google.com, hone in on your neighbourhood or anywhere else you’d like to play, and press the Pac-Man button right next to where the Street View button is. The game might look familiar if you’re in a city like Manhattan, or a little wonky if you’re in one of those spaghetti-style-streets areas, but either way it works just like the real game, with ghosts and powerups!

Photographer Calder Wilson added an explosive new method to his long exposure "light paintings" earlier this year when he was struck by a brilliant notion: Strap some leftover New Year's fireworks to the back of a UAV, light them up and then lift off... 
De La Soul love sampling, so much so that they feel as if a whole branch of copyright law was invented just for them. The sample-heavy trio (for three is the magic number) didn't want to have to compromise their artistic vision for their ninth album,... Back in the ’80s, girls had Cabbage Patch Kids and mostly boys who knew girls that had Cabbage Patch Kids focused on abusing that annoying doll in front of said girls. It’s just what we did. To make fun of the Cabbage Patch doll came a set of trading cards called Garbage Pail Kids that I found to be very funny. I collected those things for a long time.
I even went to see the weird and incredibly creepy Garbage Pail Kids movie. That flick will give you nightmares. If you have fond memories of said Kids, you might recall Adam Bomb. He was one of the cooler of the kids with a mushroom cloud coming up out of his head.
Here’s Adam Bomb in vinyl collectible form. In the 6-inch vinyl action figure’s hand is a detonator button for blowing his mind. The one thing that bothers me about Adam Bomb is that he is really clean for a Garbage Pail Kid. You can pick up the action figure for $24.99(USD) at ThinkGeek.
If you accessed a document today on Dropbox.com, you might notice that it looks a little different -- the preview screen real estate is a little larger, the design is a little cleaner and oh wait, is that a new toolbar? That's because the cloud stora...
