It’s already hard enough for geeks to score with the chicks, but these Username Password Boy Short Panties aim to make it downright impossible. After all, who knows what kind of odd passwords women come up with? Plus, with these, bruteforce tactics aren’t allowed - and I hear the network crashes quite often.
Girls, send a clear message to that special geek in your life with these boy short panties. Access is denied until the proper credentials have been supplied. You can never be too careful around those smooth-talking hackers and social engineers…

Good news for all you Family Guy fanatics. Twentieth Century Fox announced today that they will allow Take-Two Interactive Software and Airborne Entertainment to produce new Family Guy video games. Take-Two will produce multiple platform video games while Airborne Entertainment will introduce new mobile phone content for enjoyment of the Griffins on the go. The new video game will be a third person action/adventure where players take the role of characters such as Stewie, Brian the Dog, and Peter as they interact with the citizens of Quahog. The expected release will be in 2006. Until we see some updates, we can only assume this will be something like The Simpsons video games as it is a third-person adventure.

It seems as though that most notebooks these days are getting more affordable, right? Guess again. More expensive than some homes, 
It doesn’t get much more unique than this. Check out the Hotspot Bloom Wi-Fi detector. All you do is clip it on, preferably in a spot that is visible to you, and walk around town as normal (as if walking around with a flower is as normal for you as it is for me). When you come into range of a wi-fi hotspot, the Hotspot Bloom flower will simply light up with a designated color to let you know how strong the signal is. Hotspot Bloom glows red in a location with a strong wi-fi signal, green to orange for a medium signal, blue for a low signal, and pulses blue if there is no signal available at all. Nice job, Karen!

Last month we told you about Napster’s newest idea for renting music instead of paying 99 cents a track. We informed you that the service, at $14.99, was being beta tested. The service is now available on Napster’s To Go website. The only drawback is that only a few portable MP3 players work with the service. The current list of To Go compatible players include the iriver H10, Creative Zen Micro, SMT5600 Smart Phone, Zen Portable Media Center, Gateway GCM-4 Photo Jukebox, iriver H320, iriver PMC-120, and the Samsung YH-999 Portable Media Center. More compatible players are sure to be released, just look for the “Works with Napster To Go” logo. Of course, the Apple iPod is not supported. Will that make it harder for Napster to compete with iTunes? This seems to be a good service since you are able to have unlimited downloads for $15 a month. Say you download 1,000 songs, instead of paying $1,000 using iTunes, you only spend $15 a month. A very completive price, however, could the incompatibility of the iPod be this service’s downfall?

While it is just a mock-up, we can certainly dream - can’t we? I tell you, most of the time Apple fans can come up with better designs than the actual company does. Of course, who knows how long the battery would last if there was a screen on the unit. Nonetheless, check out the rant from Chris at YukonMac as well. Does the shuffle really need a screen, or does the straight shuffling add to its allure?
