The 20 Pictures Girls Need to Stop Posting in Social Media

 

This is the proper Social Media Burn Book

  Everyday, our feeds on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are flooded with the same old crap. Girls are going crazy taking pictures of EVERYTHING throughout their days, and subjecting their friends to this garbage on all the social media sites. These following 20 pictures are the most commonly posted, and the reason Zuckerberg gave us an 'unfriend' button, bless his heart! 

 20. Sunset

Thank you. I have never seen one before. Unless you live in Alaska or Siberia, leave it off my feed.

 19.  Legs at the beach

Your glistening legs look so hot… oh wait that's only because you did the Lo-Fi filter. Thanks for keeping it to just your kneecaps though because if that was all you were willing to show, we probably didn't want to see the rest.

 18.  Alcohol

LOOK HOW MUCH FUN IM HAVING AND IM SO COOL BECAUSE IM DRINKING ALCOHOL!" I'm going to assume your stupid hashtags underneath are #beerthirty #fiveoclocksomewhere #sexonthebeach.

 17. Pet

Basically what you're admitting to the world with your hundreds of pictures of your cats and dogs, is that, you're single…. or you're jealous of your friends with children and this is the only way you know how to compete. A couple now and then is fine, but 3 a day? Bet you're watching Young & the Restless too. 

P.S. your pet doesn't like it!! so Stop the animal cruelty.

 16.Off-spring

Congratulations, you can reproduce. I'm not interested in the cake your child smashed, their first bowel movement, or their first steps, because you know why…. it's not my child. With everything being documented on the internet these days, leave your child off of it. There are enough people looking into our business, don't voluntarily give it to them.

 
 15. Outfit for the day or morning or afternoon or evening...whatever
 

I just don't know if I would get any sleep if Alison didn't post her "outfit of the day" EVERYDAY! It is comical to make fun of all the fashion mistakes you're making though.

 14. Selfies

 

The worst of the worst of the worst. Stop. Stop now. Isn't this what your profile picture is for? I don't need to see you throwing up a peace sign, a smoochy face, or pushing your boobs together (even though you didn't really mean to, it just happened!) You know how to criticize when you see someone else's selfie? Ya, thats what we're doing to yours.

 13. Text Conversation

If it's not a picture, don't post it. You're either trying to prove how happy your relationship is (which means it's probably pretty shitty) when we see your text from him that says "I love you baby you're gorgeous!", or you're trying to show us the hilarious conversation you just had with your bestie. Haha, so funny.

 12. Plane wings

Ohhhh so when you checked in at JFK an hour ago, I thought that meant you were running to Miami. Thank god the plane wings cleared that confusion right up.

 
 11. Clouds
 

What are these giant cotton balls? Am I dreaming? Oh wait, its those things I see every day of my life. They may never appear again, thanks for documenting it. Oh and that double rainbow too.

 10. Mirror Selfie

Where to begin. I'm so cute holding up my Hello Kitty iPhone case and looking at the phone instead of into the mirror because I'm actually embarrassed I'm doing this in the first place. More often than not, the subject in the picture is looking at themselves on the phone. What the Frankenweenie?

 
 9. Nail art
 

Fresh mani! Don't my Minions from Despicable Me look ravishing in nail lacquer? I'm also 30 years old, maybe not mentally though.

 8. Feet in the sand
 

What a pensive shot. My friends and I make a friendship circle. with our feet. Maybe this truly replicates the meaning of our friendship, something to trample on. 

I am super jealous of you guys.

 7. Fortune Cookie
 

Unless it says "You are an attention whore", I'm not interested in your cracked cookie.

 6. Coffee Art
 

Someone spent an intricate amount of time making this design, which is going to be ruined in 5 seconds. Thanks for capturing it. By the way, The barista is laughing at you while your holding your camera up to the mug.

 5. Fireworks
 

Celebrate! Celebrate your complete lack for creativity and skills in photography.

 4. Holding hands
 

Please believe how happy we are! Is that a promise ring? That's probably all it'll ever be.

 3. Attempt at applying Make up

Why? To see your pathetic attempt at doing your eye shadow and eyeliner? What a turn on for a guy, seeing this girl he knows having a striking resemblance to that creepy dead girl from the Grudge.

 2. Driving Selfie
 

Let's start a new campaign to join "It can wait", and we'll call it "It should never happen". It's terrifying to know girls are taking these pictures while their driving. I'd prefer a text message then you fumbling trying to make sure you hit the camera button.

1.  Food: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Midnight snack or snack
 

Oh wow! you eat food too...what a shocker! I really thought I was the only being who used my digestive system. Word of advice the junk you're about to eat is contributing to your unknown failing health and lack of intelligence. #justsaying

Dear Tech (3D) Nology

The concept of 3D printing has finally gone big time! 

3D printing by Swarovski and Victoria's Secret

The concept of 3D printing is by no means new, however. Chuck Hull invented and patented stereo-lithography (also known as solid imaging) in the mid-1980s, when he founded 3D Systems, Inc. Since then, advances in the technology have been (and continue to be) made, including the size of the printers themselves, the materials they can use and more.
But how do 3D printers actually work? How can something that looks like our household printer or office photocopier create complex, solid objects in a matter of hours?

It all starts with a concept. The first stage of 3D printing is laying out an original idea with digital modeling — that is, with computer aided design (CAD) or animation modeling software.
Whichever program you choose, you're able to create a virtual blueprint of the object you want to print. The program then divides the object into digital cross-sections so the printer is able to build it layer by layer. The cross-sections essentially act as guides for the printer, so that the object is the exact size and shape you want. Both CAD and animation modeling software are WYSIWYG graphics editors — "what you see is what you get."
If you're not particularly design-inclined, you can purchase, download or request ready-made designs from sites like Shapeways, Sculpteo or Thingiverse.
Once you have a completed design, you send it to the 3D printer with the standard file extension .STL (for "stereo-lithography" or "Standard Tessellation Language"). STL files contain three-dimensional polygons that are sliced up so the printer can easily digest its information.

The 3D Printing Process

Now for the fun part. The first thing to note is that 3D printing is characterized as "additive" manufacturing, which means that a solid, three-dimensional object is constructed by adding material in layers. This is in contrast to regular "subtractive" manufacturing, through which an object is constructed by cutting (or "machining") raw material into a desired shape.
After the finished design file is sent to the 3D printer, you choose a specific material. This, depending on the printer, can be rubber, plastics, paper, polyurethane-like materials, metals and more.
Printer processes vary, but the material is usually sprayed, squeezed or otherwise transferred from the printer onto a platform. One printer in particular, the Makerbot Replicator 2, has a renewable bioplastic spooled in the back of the device (almost like string). When the printer is told to print something, it pulls the bioplastic filament through a tube and into an extruder, which heats it up and deposits it through a small hole and onto the build plate.
Then, a 3D printer makes passes (much like an inkjet printer) over the platform, depositing layer on top of layer of material to create the finished product (look closely — you can see the layers). This can take several hours or days depending on the size and complexity of the object. The average 3D-printed layer is approximately 100 microns (or micrometers), which is equivalent to 0.1 millimeters. Some printers, like the Objet Connex, can even deposit layers as thin as 16 microns.
Throughout the process, the different layers are automatically fused to create a single three-dimensional object in a dots per inch (DPI) resolution.

It's clear that 3D printing has the potential to transform several industries. Take the health field — medical professionals have used 3D printing to create hearing aids, custom leg braces and even a titanium jaw.
Last year, a team of researchers, engineers and dentists created the world's first prosthetic beak for a wounded bald eagle. NASA has tested 3D printers that will let Mars-bound astronauts print what they need as they travel.
Creating 3D-printed meat could fill the human need for protein while having less of an impact on the environment. The KamerMaker (pictured above) is a 3D printer large enough to print entire rooms.
These innovations could have a profound effect on the world, but the 3D printing industry does have at least one drawback — price. Smaller printers, designed for printing toys and other small gadgets, can be as little as $1,000, but the larger, more professional models can cost anywhere from $14,900 to $59,000. And the really advanced, heavy duty models? Those can set you back more than $600,000.
Other cons include the controversies of 3D-printed guns and the threat of copyright infringement.
Nonetheless, there's currently a huge market for 3D printing — $1.7 billion to be exact. And that number is expected to reach $3.7 billion by 2015.
Could 3D printing eventually change the world and even make mass manufacturing obsolete? We'll have to wait and see.

One of the biggest companies to use this technology is Victoria’s Secret.
The lingerie line will be teaming up with Swarovski (Austrian producer of luxury cut lead glass). They will be using the 3D printing process to create angel wings and other outfits for this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
In a recent video uploaded to YouTube, the outfits shown look very delicate and complex, featuring snowflake shapes.

The first Victoria’s Secret angel to sport the new technology is Lindsay Ellingson.  

Check out the video below. The process is pretty amazing!

Dear Tech (Futurescape) Nology

Futurescape explores event horizons that will critically alter life as we know it.

Robots who have the same rights as humans?
The ability to stop the aging process?
The power to read minds?
The ideas -- born of science fiction -- aren't all that unimaginable, according to Science Channel's new series Futurescape With James Woods.

The six-part series, which airs at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Tomorrow (Tuesday), aims to reveal "the advances that will redefine humanity" by examining the next breakthroughs in science and technology, focusing on such topics as telepathy, colonizing space, achieving eternal youth and the integration of robots in our world. They're subjects that fascinate Woods, who not only serves as host and executive producer but also was involved with the show's development.



For Woods' part, he says he was especially interested in exploring not the questions of "can we" create something but "should we" do it just because we can."There's that awful, dreadful moment when you realize what you can do with science, where this fresh sort of creature emerges from the chrysalis and you don't know whether it's going to be something evil or great," says Woods.

The first episode, titled "Robot Revolution," examines a world in which "cutting-edge experiments have transformed machines into creatures with consciousness, while elsewhere, scientists are enhancing the human body with synthetic parts that work better than the real thing," according to the network description. The result is a "not-too-distant world where man and machine are not only equal, but indistinguishable."
The episode creates a scenario in which a robot goes into a voting booth while humans outside stage a protest. Woods says the situation isn't unlike those from America's past.
"If someone said to you that one day robots could vote, everybody would laugh," Woods says. "But people felt the same way about black people voting and women voting. Now we look back in astonishment, and we know that's absurd."

He also points out that scientific advances such as pacemakers and the like have made some humans "bionic," blurring the lines between man and machine even further.
Future episodes include "Cheating Time," which takes a look at advances in medical technology that could rid the world of illness and old age; "Replacing God," which examines the ability to create life from scratch; "Galactic Pioneers," centering on recent advances in propulsion technology, warp drive and solar energy; "How to Be a Superhuman," focusing on advances in genetic engineering and neuroscience; and "I Know What You're Thinking," which shows how scientists can "read minds" with telepathy helmets and scan hidden memories in ways that could threaten privacy.
Woods notes that he also injects his own humor into what's going on around him. For example, when filming a segment about the possibility of cheating the aging process -- and death -- he made a quip about someone who was "only" 150 but had been married 11 times and looked 20: "kind of like some of my friends in Hollywood."

In success, Woods says this is a show he'd like to continue doing as long as he could. There are very important social, scientific, moral and ethical issues that we address in the show."
Asked to make predictions on what he thinks the future holds, Woods is cautious but hopeful.

"It's possible that extraordinary advances in technology and science could help the human race [move toward] curing the most heinous of diseases and limit the ability to age, to live longer and more gracefully," he says. "By the same token, if these potential advances are not managed, we very well could be in worse shape.

Question Everything

Dear Tech (Wedding Bells) Nology

A lot of strange people in the world. A lot of strange situations, but the strangest of them is the existence of a 'romantic' relationship between Human and Machine. Yes, actual 'exchange of vows'! The real deal! Mi computadora es mi amor!!!



In 2009, 24 year old British woman, Hermoine (No not Hermoine Granger!) Way, had been unofficially engaged to her laptop (known as Alex) for 11 months.

Some claimed she was mental, but she wanted to prove the world her dedication to her laptop with whom she has spent every minute of every day with for the past three years.
Addiction?? or Actual Love?

However, the law did not allow computer to human marriages but Hermione is hoping to change all that. After all Gay marriages weren't legal in most nations until 3 years ago.

The year is 2013, and Hermoine has been unofficially married to her Laptop since January 31st, 2010.

Congratulations!

Dear Tech (D.I.Y.) Nology

~*~Humblest Apologies for the late post.~*~

As  I mentioned earlier, Christmas is coming up. Many persons look forward to the gift giving and receiving. Some of us get lost in this anticipation and we misplace many items, small or large- much of it ends up stolen. In this blog I'll show you how to celebrate the season without misplacing your flash drive or allowing it to be stolen.

Firstly, nobody wants a cut-off USB cord therefore the chances of it being stolen is slim to none. So, we'll make a USB flash drive which will give anyone the impression it is a useless torn USB cable.

OH NO! a torn USB cable!!! *screams!!*

Calm down Frantic Sally!

It's a working USB......flash drive.

It’s no secret that there are a lot of strange USB devices out there, particularly flash drives. Not a comprehensive list, but we’ve sure seen Lego, twigs, action figures, bowling balls, sushi, anatomical parts, pigs, transparent drives, erasers, cassette tapes, just about any design you can imagine.
Despite all that, the picture above is a little surprising– because yes, it’s a working USB flash drive. Here, is the step by step walk through of how to make your own.

This is a KingMax 1 GB USB flash drive, one of the smaller varieties out there. It's available on eBay for about $10 (USD). Above, you can see it. The gold pads are just printed pads on a tiny circuit board.

 

 

Next you need a victim USB cable. Try starting with a USB “A-B” cable. Looking at the end that you’ll be cutting up, you might notice a neat injection molding seam that runs around the edge.

Using a sharp hobby knife, cut neatly along that seam. Cutting there actually provides some camouflage for you: Since you expect there to be a seam there, it’s very hard to notice an additional cut as well. If you really want your seams to be invisible, you might want to use a black USB cable.

Cut deeply enough that you actually cut through to the metal shell underneath the rubber, at which point you can start to peel back the rubber parts.

 

The metal shell underneath the rubber overmolding consists of two of pieces of thin steel that are stamped and folded into place. They are held together by some tabs and slots– use a small screwdriver to defeat the tabs and you can pull the flap the “lid” piece, so that you can now get at the inside of the metal shell.

With the one piece of the metal shell removed, you have access to the middle parts of the shell where the original USB wires and plastic and metal connections are located. Cut them away with your choice of tools. I found that the hobby knife worked well enough to sever the wires, at which point the remaining plastic parts could be removed pretty easily. What’s left is just the metal shell– ready for you to put your own circuit board in.

Now test-fit the bare-board USB drive into the metal shell. Seems to fit okay? But you might still need to fix it in place.

 One other final detail to take care of: The back side, where the circuit board will be resting, has some metal parts that the back side of the circuit board will be touching– so you need an insulator there. If you have a piece of clear blue heat-shrink tubing, that might fit well, but a piece of electrical tape would do the job too. Once that is added everything should look safe and still fit together.

To bond everything together and fill all the extra space inside the USB cable end, use gel-style 5 minute epoxy. Fortunately, five minutes gives you enough time to apply the glue, place the flash drive in place, and put the rubber molded housing back on, Uhu glue has a much quicker drying time and is not recommended if you are not quick. Hold the connector firmly– paying attention to the seams for alignment– until the epoxy cures, about five more minutes.

Last step: Cut the cable as desired. A jagged cut looks different than a clean cut– take your pick.

 Voila!

Happy Building :-)
