Pac-Man recreated in real life using hacked Roombas linked wirelessly to homebrewed guidance software. And the story makes it seem waaay more complicated than that. [via]

LuxiRare’s “Lollipop-Pie” offers a delectable answer to the problem of portable pie. The best ideas are solutions to problems you never knew you had. But all along you’ve had a pie problem. They’re just too big to carry in your pocket for a jolt of sugary goodness.
Luxi explains thus:
I want a couple of bites, and I want to be done with it. I want to pop open my bag when I’m hungry and taste a little sweetness. I don’t want commitment. I want to be promiscuous with my food. […]
Rotating flavors. Grab and go. In and out. Blackberry, pumpkin, apple, banana…my favorites. You see I am very slutty about my food.
More info and pictures of the process to make these can be found here.
I give up. The greatest thing ever has already been invented. It’s pie on a stick in a bite-sized form. The wheel was pretty great and all, but I think you can see it hanging it’s head in wonder. [via]
