It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Quickies

It's been a long time coming, so lets start off the quickies with some acts of senseless damage. Old Wolf sent us a link to a bunch of pictures of someone Defrosting a Freezer in the best way ever, and an anonymous reader sent in a site that shows what happens if you put a CD in Microwave. Don't use AOL CDs., send them to this lady who collects them (from gr8fulnded). On to the sex! An anonymous reader submitted a story about the Robot Pet Vibrator which is I guess AIBO gone wrong. elkm discovered Computerized Contraception. And with all this digital doin' it going on, its good know that MITs Erotic Computation Group is here to research it (thanks Chris Moon) The world is full of strangeness, but little of it is as scary as MissNachos's link to the Hello Kitty laptop, srini's link to the Single Pixel Webcam, and aneanti's link to a collection of the strangest canned foods you'll ever see. Finally, since it is the holidays, check out mrv's link to LED Christmas Lights which sure beats the hell out of finding the broken bulb.

    As their name implies, Foreverbright lights are rated for up to 200,000 hours of use - or almost 23 years.

    Sounds like they changed the definition of "forever" while I wasn't paying attention.
    The principle behind LEDs, while complicated, can be made easy to understand. An LED is a special type of diode and is similar to a transistor.

    And then it goes on to talk about N and P silicon, and so forth. I guess they changed the definition of "easy to understand" too.
