- MyNameIsFred, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10"After the jump" is an expression from dead-tree newspapers. It refers to a story on the front page (e.g. page A1) continuing inside the newspaper (e.g., on page A11). On the web, it means click the link to the next page. Another dead-tree newspaper phrase is "below the fold," stories that are on the bottom half of the front page. Less important information is put after the jump or below the fold.

Some one can figure out the next 5 - WaterDragon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7LOL Transparent toaster:
"Unfortunately, the glass does not reach a high enough temperature %u2014 at this time %u2014 to actually toast the bread."
So it's not really a toaster then, is it?
They shouldn't invent that one until we have transparent bread to put in it. - spliznork, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7What is "video after the jump"? I don't know it, I don't like it, and it's freaking me out.
- chrisdelta, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Ah, but it already IS transparent - that's why we can't see it being toasted.
- WaterDragon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4intelligent spoon:
"It’s equipped with sensors to measure temperature, acidity, salinity, and viscosity"
OMG Will we become so lazy that we won't even 'taste the soup'...but we'll need a spooon to do it for us? - DrakeTheRedEye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I want the Video Game Urinal "Home Edition" installed

"“On Target” Video Game Urinal"
Finally, a game you can p*ss on! I hope it is Windows based!
This is, by far, the weirdest, silliest article I have seen on Digg. - Dysanovic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I cant wait to see the results when someone puts a bigger engine on the scarpar board!

- pasteler0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1cool stuff
- gypsyjoe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yeah, and this dual belt sander makes a noise like a chainsaw at full throttle (That's why the crappy music on the vid - to cover it up). Not going to be popular with anyone.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You mean a CORDED belt sander?
- oak13, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Awesome Digg, I can't wait to get the video game sphere in my basement.
- dhuck, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2i can't stand those intellitext popus... ughh!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1The scarpar looks like a couple cordless belt sanders attached to a board.
By the way, if anyone makes a DYI using belt sanders.....you agree to release me from all liability yet you must give me credit for the idea.
In other words....I'm a glory whore. - farmerwal, on 10/12/2007, -6/+6omg hoverboards w00t
- slooksterpsv, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would love to have the Heliodisplay M2, that thing is awesome. Does anyone know specifically how it works?
- atelophobee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the Origami DVD Player is cool as sh!t... so many applicable uses too. does anyone know more about this (other than what's provided on inventablees)?
if this could actually be good quality, omg!! laptops would be pocketsized! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Actually, it runs on a another future product - GoogleOS.
It's not that Google deserves to be pissed on, they just want to index your DNA - Ragzouken, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Hmm n/m I should RTFA
