All Geeks

Her name is Lana Sator and she snuck into one of NPO Energomash factories outside of Moscow. Her photos are amazing, like sets straight out of Star Wars or Alien.

Vint Cerf is ruffling nerds' feathers with his Thursday op-ed in The New York Times that claims in almost trollish fashion: "Internet Is Not a Human Right." This is funny (and incendiary) because Vint Cerf is sort of the guy who invented the Internet. That was in 1969 when Cerf worked as a principle programmer on the Pentagon's ARPANET project and helped to connect the very first two nodes of what would grow to become the Internet as we know it.

Researchers used a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) to explore the depths of the East Scotia Ridge, which is full of hydrothermal vents which can reach up to 719 degrees Fahrenheit (382 degrees Celsius). They discovered an amazing new world packed with unknown species. According to project leader Professor Alex Rogers of Oxford University's Department of Zoology, these alien-looking white creatures are thriving in the rich chemicals ejected by the vents:...

On the surface, it does seem kind of odd making a Darth Vader burger for celebrate The Phantom Menace: he was, after all, just a cute but annoying kid at the time – seriously, if Jar Jar hadn’t been so much worse we would have all been complaining about little Aniken Skywalker. At any rate, that is why it make sense. The good folks at Quick (or at least the good folks that design their promotional campaigns) are reminding us that – if you can sustain 2.9 episodes of torture – you get to see Haydn Christiansen punished for his wooden acting....
