Watch as Jessica from Pies are Awesome creates a Super Mario pixel pie.
Pastry cutters come in all shapes and sizes – the large size is perfect for a 16 px square design on a standard 8″ pie plate, or you can use the smaller kind for a 24 px grid – though you may want to invest in some tweezers for that one…
As geeks, most of us know Card Against Humanity, the company that does everything differently compared to most corporations: They increased price on Black Friday, sold people poop instead of their cards, and even dug a giant hole. Now, they want to hire a new CEO, and they placed a full page ad in the Chicago Tribune to announce it. But there’s only one catch… (full text under the picture below.)
Cards Against Humanity, the #1 best-selling party game, is hiring a new CEO!
Let’s face it: we have no idea what we’re doing. This year, we wasted an enormous amount of time and energy trying to get Hillary Clinton elected President, and on Black Friday we dug a huge hole in the ground because we wanted to find out if it would be funny. It’s been a great run, but now it’s time for real adult leadership.

Designed, ordered and waited for parts and built this over 8 days. A few challenges to get it working smoothly, but happy with the results!

Google says every Chromebook released from now on will run Android apps. Whether that boosts sales depends on why people weren’t buying Chromebooks.
At the moment, only three Chromebooks support Android apps. However, Google has not only announced Android support for all new models, but also that 60 existing models will be updated with the support. It will then look at other existing models to see if their specs mean they can be added to the list.
Using the apps should be relatively simple: users simply use the settings menu to sign into the Google Play Store, which then gives them access to the Android apps. One downside is that they’ll have to manually select which to download, even if they’ve previously installed them on an Android phone or tablet. Another is that not all the apps in the store will be compatible and some may lack normal features (such as downloads in Netflix.)
There is a risk of some confusion as there’ll be some Android apps that are also available as native Chrome apps, which generally will be the better option for a Chromebook.
It may be something of a workaround given there’s plenty of speculation that Google’s long-term plan is to merge Chrome OS and Android into a single system that works across all computing devices.
Computer-generated effects are ubiquitous in Hollywood, so when something amazing happens on screen, audiences usually assume they’re seeing a digital fantasy. But despite the surge in CGI, some directors are still committed to doing special effects the old-fashioned way, before today’s digital wizardry existed. From puppets to prosthetics to old-school camera tricks, we’ve rounded up some of the most insane scenes you’ll never believe were created without computers…

Charlie drives the penetrometer into the soil and, leaning down on it as it descends, he falls forward to the ground. It takes three attempts for him to get back up by doing press-ups to a kneeling position before standing. In the middle of his second press-up, he supports his whole body on his hands, completely off the ground for two seconds. The strip of white soil in the background is the South Ray Crater ejecta blanket.
