The helmet on the left needs no introduction; the one on the right was part of the uniform of Saddam’s army. The uniform was mandated by Saddam’s son, Uday, before he passed the command of the army over to his younger brother. Griggs said that Uday presented the new uniform to his father “as something to remember his (Uday’s) work by.”

For $24.95, you can get a velcro P8tch printed with a high-quality scannable QR Code which reads as a static short URL in the format http://p8t.ch/yourlink. With a passphrase, the redirect for the short URL can be changed at any time via the p8t.ch website.
Although the website’s URL setup/redirect process is obviously flawed and insecure (and seems to be broken right now for the test patch), the velcro QR Code patch concept is still rather novel. Of course, anyone that asked me to scan their patch out in the wild would probably get a serious eyebrow raise and a “Thx but I prefer my phone unpwnd.” But then I would also probably buy them a beer, so yous picks yer battles.
I’d rather make my own then rely on a third-party service, but I love this concept.

In 1926, Fritz Kahn illustrated man as a working factory in his famous poster, Man as Industrial Palace. Tiny guys in each body system perform their own specific job. A camera man controls the eyes, groups of thinkers sit up top, and the guys at the bottom handle the dirty work. (via Man as Industrial Palace - FlowingData)

I found this awesome website that looks like a Japanese version of DeviantArt because I wanted to find out more about this piece of art posted by this tumblr blog that I just found out about and am now following like a fiend all because I saw this post by accidentally domesticated which prompted me to make a photoshop of that dog killing someone famous who died on this day in history, which lead me to this site, which made me google “suit doll” (for a doll in a suit to represent David Doyle) and found a crazy cute picture (that I’ll probably reblog, later). All this happened inside of 10 minutes or so.
The internet is awesome.

A Post Entitled MyPaint, a simple open-source painting app
I’ve been looking for an open-source equivalent to Project Dogwaffle or Corel Painter for a while, and today I finally found MyPaint. The app is very simple, offering many preset natural media brushes, with the ability to customise and add your own. Naturally, these respond to the pressure sensitivity of a Wacom tablet pen, or similar. It supports layers (but seems to lack a dedicated window to manage them). There’s also a colour picker and… well, that’s about it.
It’s available to download for Windows and Linux, but there doesn’t seem to be a Mac version.
Don’t be mislead by my attached image - I’ve simply doodled on one of my earlier GIMP creations.
Now I just need an idea…
