Welcome to the denture shop of your nightmares

Famed photographer Ferenc Berko took this photograph of this denture shop in Rawalpindi, India, in 1946. The giant model dentures may have been used to market false teeth, but they could easily have been the set for some fantastical horror film. I can’t help but wonder if the models scared off more customers than they brought in.

What Happens To Your Digital Music And Books After You Die?

What Happens To Your Digital Music And Books After You Die?:

unexpectedtech:

Still, the question of what happens with somebody’s digital assets after their death (including music, ebooks and social networking profiles) is something we haven’t quite figured out yet and that’s worth contemplating, even outside of this slow news day story.

Sites like Deceased Account, for example, lists numerous major web services that don’t currently have policies for how they handle the accounts of deceased users. Most services that do have policies, including Twitter, allow family members to close a dead user’s account but don’t provide them with access to the user’s data. Facebook, which probably has to deal with this problem more than other online services, now offers a feature to turn a dead person’s profile into an online memorial.

As for the music people download from iTunes, though, most of the rules for how Apple handles music rights aren’t so much determined by Apple as by the music industry.

Breaking Bad: White and Pinkman by Micah Lanier

Prints available at bigcartel. Let’s get something straight. This… the chemistry… is my realm. I am in charge of the cooking. Out there on the street, you deal with that. As far as our customers go, I don’t want to know anything about them. I don’t need to see them. I don’t want to hear from them. I want no interaction with them whatsoever. This operation is you and me, and I’m the silent partner. You got any issues with that?

Quotable Arts by Evan Robertson / Obvious State

High quality giclée prints available at etsy. Distilling literary quotes from a handful of the masters down to a single graphic representation, Evan captures the raw concept of the sentence and makes it damn purty to look at as well.

The Large Hadron Collider

It’s super-massive and recently discovered something analogous to the Higgs-Boson, without which… nothing would *matter*. But in these detailed shots, even the $4 billion science-making uber-magnet can vogue it up a little for the cameras. Oh yes, LHC, yes, the cam-er-a loves you. Yeah baby.

One final shot I had to include, because this configuration of buttons actually exists:
