Pet Tags

Man, I'm so irritated.

I just received four pets tags that I ordered for Bev and Mary Margaret (two for Brooklyn and two for LA) and they're all messed up. Not only did they leave off the "Margaret" on Mary Margaret's tags, but the text isn't centered correctly and runs off the right side on all four of them. (The last letter of the address is cut in half.) The tags themselves are also ugly. The edges aren't smoothed out... they look like someone just cut them from a piece of sheet metal and called it a day.

So anyway, I got them this morning on my way to Starbucks (yesterday's mail), so while I was there, I started drafting a strongly-worded letter in my head, like what I was going to say to these people when I sent them back.

And then I saw it.

In tiny print on the bottom of the invoice it said, "Our handicapped employees appreciate your order."

So now I can't send them back. If I did I'd be a total asshole.

I'm just going to order new ones from someplace else. Any recommendations?

Dodge is a space-shooter in which you have no weapons

dodge
Space-shooters are usually a fairly fiery affair, with many types of guns, weapon upgrades, power-ups and more. Dodge does away with all of that, while keeping the very essence of a space shooter: Dark background, fast action, and stuff blowing up all over the place.

Your vector-looking spacecraft is the fastest thing on the screen, most of the time. And as the header implies, you have absolutely no weapons; you can't get any, either. All you have is agility and maneuverability.

Your opponents shoot heat-seeking missiles at you; the missiles lock on and start tracking you. The trick is to dodge the missiles while putting them in the path of one of your enemies, thus letting them have a taste of their own medicine.

There are three types of enemies, at least in the first few levels: "simple" spaceships which fire slow projectiles, "tanks" which seem to be more serious and take more hits to destroy, and "circles." The circles simply explode, spewing twenty or thirty very fast projectiles. This sounds dangerous, but is actually great once you learn to use them; they are very destructive for tanks, and can even blow up other circles.

The soundtrack is very techno, but it meshes very well with this type of game. Intense fun!

Prince Harry Falls into a Pool While Dancing!

Prince Harry Falls into a Pool While Dancing!

The days when royalty was only seen stiffly posing for official photos are long gone, as evidenced by a new video of Prince Harry falling into a pool, fully clothed, during a crowded dance party in Croatia. Someone taped the whole thing, and Harry can be seen gyrating barefoot on the pool's edge, before losing his balance and diving in. Harry then clambers out of the pool, soaking wet, only to keep dancing. The clip and the stills were sent to the British tabloid The Sun, who has the whole story. Watch the video below!
 

Prince Harry, 26, was in Croatia taking a break from his rigorous Apache helicopter training course (which will take him to the United States for two months), when the sure-to-be-viral video was filmed the Veneranda Club on trendy Hvar island.

 

"Harry was dancing around with his arms in the air. He was having a great time and seemed pretty tipsy," on onlooker tells the Sun. "Suddenly he just jumped into the pool and one of his friends jumped in after him. Everyone thought it was really funny and Harry was laughing his head off. He was soaked to the skin, but he didn't care. He loved being the center of attention."

Follow the prince's plung, a laughing and still sopping-wet Harry posing for pictures while flanked by two gorgeous models: Svetlana Gavrilovic, 28, and blonde Ana Simovic. Speculation about Harry's personal life has always been intense, especially since his brother Prince William married Kate Middleton in the "wedding of the year" -- and we sure Harry will soon be linked to both of the gorgeous young lasses. But for our money, it looks like he's just having a good time before heading back to his Army training.

As another witness noted. "He was constantly running from one place to another. One moment he was flirting with some girls at the bar, the next he was dancing on the top of a low wall."

The only negative in all of this? Harry's dancing might get a bad rap. According to another witness, "Harry's dancing wasn't great. In fact it was embarrassing. But once they realized who he was, everyone wanted to have a photo with him." Royalty certainly has its privileges.

Listen to Gizmodo's Soundtrack: Explosions in the Sky [Video]

My musical tastes, if you can call them that, are largely mainstream and boring. And that's how I first came across Explosions in the Sky: I was watching a mainstream movie, and I was bored. Thank goodness. More »

Sony HMZ-T1 headset hits IFA, we go hands-on (video)

Easily the most unusual highlight of today's Sony IFA press conference, the HMZ-T1 goes where many other companies have tried and failed. The head-mounted display, first introduced as a prototype back in January at CES, has finally graduated into a real product. The device is aimed at gamers and TV watchers, generating a 3D image with use of a pair of 0.7-inch OLED panels, which each display separate images, doing away with the ghost imagery that often comes along with 3D displays. The device is a solid piece of hardware, just what one would expect from Sony -- especially for a piece of hardware that'll run you around $600 when it hits the US around the November / December time frame. Check out a hands-on video of the device after the break.

Jailbreak iOS 4.3.1 on OS X or Windows with PwnageTool or Sn0wbreeze

iOS 4.3.1 jailbreakA jailbreak of iOS 4.3.1 is now possible with both PwnageTool on Mac, and Sn0wbreeze on Windows. RedmondPie -- who else? -- has some handy guides that you can follow for all iOS 4.3.1 devices on Windows, for iPhone 4 on OS X, iPad 1 on OS X, iPhone 3GS on OS X, and iPod touch 4G and 3G on OS X.

All iOS 4.3.1 jailbreaks are still tethered, meaning you'll have to jailbreak your device after every reboot. An untethered jailbreak is slated for release sometime in the next week -- but 4.3 was meant to have an untether, too, and that never emerged.

Maybe Apple's updated security mechanisms will finally keep hackers at bay!
