			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hacker, modder, and all-around madman <a href="http://kipkay.com/">KipKay</a> is at it again. The guy who brought us the crazy <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2008/06/14/mr-microphone-spy-hack-be-back-to-stalk-you-later/">Mr. Microphone spy hack</a> has managed to figure out an easy way to make dice that roll the same number every single time you roll them.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-30136  aligncenter" title="kipkay_trick_dice" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/kipkay_trick_dice.jpg" alt="kipkay trick dice" width="600" height="380" /></p>
<p>The incredibly simple trick involves putting the dice in your oven, and melting them just enough so they get a tiny bit heavier on the bottom. Check out the brief tutorial video below to see how you can do this yourself.</p>

<p>Now clearly, I&#8217;m not sanctioning the use of this cheat the next time you go to the craps table in Vegas, but it definitely could be fun the next time you have a pickup game of Yahtzee or Monopoly with your friends.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dhiram over at <a href="http://www.newlaunches.com/archives/slot_machines_to_soon_have_intel_inside.php">Newlaunches</a> spotted this Intel video showing the company&#8217;s vision of a modern-day casino, one that can be managed remotely, has electronic card tables, Core2Duo-powered slot machines and even handheld gambling devices.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-27233  aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Intel-inside-casinos-1.jpg" alt="Intel inside casinos 1" width="600" height="340" title="Intel inside casinos 1 photo" /></p>
<p>It&#8217;s all fancy tech, but I don&#8217;t think the current gambling generation will be so impressed or welcoming of the improvements on their end. I mean, if you&#8217;ve been playing poker using good ol&#8217; cards for decades, it won&#8217;t be that easy to switch to touchscreens won&#8217;t it?</p>

<p>Also, isn&#8217;t a Core2Duo slot machine just overkill? Will players be able to send instant messages or emails while playing? Will I be able to blog using the slot machine itself while gambling? Will I?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was heading out for one of my occasional gambling binges this holiday weekend, when what did I see? It looks like online auction house eBay has gotten their very own slot machines.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2750" title="ebay_slot_machine" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/ebay_slot_machine.jpg" alt="ebay slot machine" width="520" height="565" /></p>
<p>By the time I managed to stumble my way over from the buffet line, the eBay slots were so busy that I didn&#8217;t even manage to donate my money to them.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2751" title="ebay_slot_machine_2" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/ebay_slot_machine_2.jpg" alt="ebay slot machine 2" width="520" height="390" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">From what I could tell, they&#8217;re those typical nickel slots with tons of perplexing jagged lines which must match up in order to pay the big bucks. Of course, unlike the real eBay, there&#8217;s no guarantee that the highest bidder will win anything.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2752" title="ebay_slot_machine_igt" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/ebay_slot_machine_igt.jpg" alt="ebay slot machine igt" width="520" height="390" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The machines have icons for popular auction categories such as electronics, motors, collectibles and fashion, but they only take (and occasionally dole out) cold hard cash. And while there won&#8217;t be any money showing up in your PayPal account, all of the players on the system can win a free spin at the same time, so I guess that&#8217;s better than nothing.</p>

<p>Wanna play the eBay slot machines in person? Head on over to the oh-so-addictive new <a href="http://www.fourwindscasino.com/">Four Winds Casino</a> in New Buffalo, MI (just over an hour East of Chicago).</p>
