Rubber duckie keychain drives







Rubber duckie keychain drives

Rubber duckie keychain drives 12/08/2003 02:22 AM

This Japanese company is selling glowing rubber duckie USB keychain drives. Capacity caps out at 16MB -- someone should make a 1GB version of this. That plays MIDI jingles. And has a fingerprint-reader-based encryption scheme. You would be the coolest kid in the Internet cafe when you plugged in your fingerprint-reading lightup singing duckie and used it to transfer your ssh keypair-halves to gain acess to your cage. Seriously. Link (via Gizmodo)

Gizmodo has the scoop on a line of Gundam-branded USB keychain drives.
To appeal to the "maniacs" (Japanese for "someone who knows too much,") IO Data has included two features for collectors of the drives - and I'm not making this up - by installing the included "Cute" software, your desktop wallpaper will automatically change to a corresponding Gundam wallpaper. When you take it out, it will go back to normal. The second feature is the screensaver, which when you purchase and use more than one of these drives, will add the respective characters to the ensuing action. You too can engage in intergalactic space combat for about $55 USD for a USB 2.0 mecha, or $45 for a USB 1.1 mecha.

IFD-iV Flash Drives Masquerade as ATA
Hard Drives
07/15/2004 08:59 AM

ifd-iv.jpg imageFor embedded computing hackers, mass storage (like hard drives) is often the most frustrating piece of the puzzle, as the fragile and power-hungry spin of the hard drive is usually the last non-solid-state part in the whole deployment. And while most engineers will just use a Compact Flash card, sometimes the only option is an ATA (hard drive) connection; that's where the IFD-iV flash memory parts from IO Data Device Corporation come in. Basically just flash memory drives, the defining feature of the IFD-iVs (besides fairly rugged operating specifications) is that they use the standard ATA connection of a hard drive, meaning they can be deployed in place of hard drives when necessary. Models up to 2GB in capacity will be available for around $2,100 -- maybe we'll just deal with the fragile hard drives instead.

Metal Rubber


Metal Rubber 08/13/2004 11:04 AM

sci0804skin_A_423.jpg imageA new material called "Metal Rubber" may find its way into gadgets of the future due to its unique ability to be stretched, heated, and generally abused while still conducting electricity - and still able to snap back into form when the bending and smacking is over. Apparently the vendor NanoSonic is being inundated with requests to use the material, which is currently being produced via a painstaking process that builds up the material one layer of molecules at a time.

Our dreams of the Terminator condom may finally be realized. (Thanks, Aram!)

Dixie Chicks Pulled from Air After Bashing Bush Dude, these Texas people didn't find criticism of the president unpatriotic when Bill Clinton was president. They thought it was a sacred duty...Apparently country stations in Texas and elsewhere are pulling Dixie Chicks albums because their lead singer, while on an overseas tour, criticized Bush, saying she was ashamed to be from the state as him. People who want to criticize the critics of the critical comments are supporting the Chicks by buying their albums and requesting their songs. I never thought I'd buy a Dixie Chicks album, but that's what I'm going to do tonight, and I'm paying full price!

« The smell of burning rubber. »

Cruising Night was last Friday but it seems I didn't get the memo about them first collecting in the harbour area before meeting in the icehall parking lot soo...it was too dark to really take any photos after 10p when the cars finally started arriving there. I only bothered with a few shots of the cars burning rubber on the lot for spectators and those who love the smell of burning rubber. I was disappointed since I do love classic cars.

And, barring any loss of motivation, the Prague photos will be available by sometime tomorrow.

FireWheel Rubber Band Gun


FireWheel Rubber Band Gun 12/19/2004 03:01 PM

firewheel.jpg imageIt's a shame I hadn't seen this Firewheel rubber band gun before now—entirely my fault, too, since apparently DansData reviewed it almost a week ago, yet I totally missed it. It's simple, cheap, and awesome, which is right up my alley. It's just a click-wheel rubber band gun, but the nautilus shell design allows you to pop off one of the ten loaded rubber bands at a time, hold it down for a full-auto burst, or just rock semi somewhere in between. It's an Australian design, but they've got an outlet here in the US, so there might just be a chance I can make some mothers unhappy with a few arms shipments to young boys. (Thanks, Matt!)

Rubber-Bladed Propello Fan


Rubber-Bladed Propello Fan 06/18/2004 08:01 AM

propello.jpg imageWe're trying summer this year in Brooklyn without an air conditioner, something that was impossible in the humid swamp lands of Kansas City, but seems possible this year due to our new space inside one of Brooklyn's cool, stone buildings. Of course, we're tactically placing fans about, too, so now added to the constant drone of our home built gaming PCs is the persistent whirr of spinning blades. So when black+blum says they have made a fan, called Propello, that removes the hum-inducing fan guards by making the blades out of relatively non-lethal rubber, and put it in a nice package, to boot, I have to think it looks a sight better than the cheap $10 box fans we have peppering the apartment. Unfortunately, for the price of one small Propello, I could buy 13 box fans and spend all day floating on a cushion of air.

Feeling like a cog with a rubber stamp


Feeling like a cog with a rubber stamp 09/15/2004 05:44 AM

Two years ago I marched in protest against the Japan National ID. Last year, after we failed, a few cities and prefectures resisted. Yokohama took the position that the bill was illegal because it required privacy protection and the privacy bill had not passed. They allowed citizens to opt out and an whopping 24% of their citizens opted out. Now that the privacy bill of the central government is in place, Yokohama is being forced to "normalize" with the central government. Last year, I accepted an appoint to the Yokoyama personal information protection committee which would oversee their integration of the national ID system with the hope that I could help them in their resistance. Today, almost a year after the first meeting, I spent the afternoon in what was basically a rubber stamp session. We voiced our opinions, but at this point there really wasn't much choice. These inquiry committee are constitutionally defined organs for people to interact with the law making process, but I felt more like a cog with a rubber stamp than a participant in a democracy.

There are even three different display modes, including an 'analog' mode that displays a highlighted arc of the circle, with the leading edge indicating the current hour and the trailing edge indicating minutes.

There is talk of this design being picked up and mass produced by a couple of different companies; make that happen, boys, because I want it.
