This 1:1 scale replica of the Neuralyzer in Men in Black II looks the part. Sadly, it costs a lot of money. You are going to have to seriously, seriously love Men in Blackto get yourself one of these.That got me wondering, does anyone actually like Men in Black that much. I won’t lie to you, I thought it was okay. Okay as in, I might watch it again, maybe even twice, and I might watch it with my kid. Okay makes money at the box office, but doesn’t sell too many $400 props. Maybe it’s a generational thing.

Yesterday it was reported that Sabu had turned against his hacker community by working with the FBI. As a result, six key members of LulzSec have been arrested. In response, Anonymous has posted an open letter to Sabu on a website it hacked.
Forbes reports that the hacker collective attacked the website of anti-virus firm Panda Security, accusing the company of working with law enforcement agencies to help arrest 25 hackers in February. But the most interesting part of the hack is an open message to Sabu:
"Yeah yeah, we know, Sabu snitched on us. As usually happens FBI menaced him to take his sons away. We understand, but we were your family too. (Remember what you liked to say?)... It's sad and we can't imagine how it feels having to look at the mirror each morning and see there the guy who shopped their friends to police."

"I am deeply saddened by the passing of such a visionary artist and such a humble man. Ralph McQuarrie was the first person I hired to help me envision Star Wars. His genial contribution, in the form of unequaled production paintings, propelled and inspired all of the cast and crew of the original Star Wars trilogy. When words could not convey my ideas, I could always point to one of Ralph's fabulous illustrations and say, 'Do it like this.'
"Beyond the movies, his artwork has inspired at least two generations of younger artists—all of whom learned through Ralph that movies are designed. Like me, they were thrilled by his keen eye and creative imagination, which always brought concepts to their most ideal plateau. In many ways, he was a generous father to a conceptual art revolution that was born of his artwork, and which seized the imaginations of thousands and propelled them into the film industry. In that way, we will all be benefiting from his oeuvre for generations to come. Beyond that, I will always remember him as a kind and patient, and wonderfully talented, friend and collaborator."

Not only has it been incredibly financially lucrative for Valve, but it’s become the gold standard for the likes of Apple, Microsoft, Google and EA in their own online software stores. So how can Valve take it one step further? By making a physical Steam console....
