A machine that paid everytime at a casino!
"Customers who used the bill changing machine at Bluffs Run Casino found they had bigger payoffs than any gambling device in the place. That's because the machine was spitting out hundreds instead of twenties." They came up $46k short. "rhe casino reviewed surveillance tapes to try to recover some of the money but had little luck." Finally the casino gets screwed .

Hypersonic Sound

Freebie of the day - DNA Strand Keychain

HyperSonic Sound
" Rarely is an invention so unique, so visceral and so simple that in 15 seconds most people who experience it realize it could alter everyday life."

Tor: An anonymous Internet communication system
"Using Tor can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC, SSH, and more. Your traffic is safer when you use Tor, because communications are bounced around a distributed network of servers, called onion routers. Instead of taking a direct route from source to destination, data packets on the Tor network take a random pathway through several servers that cover your tracks so no observer at any single point can tell where the data came from or where it's going."
