The World's Technology Podcast Thanksgiving Early Edition, or something. This week, two separate teams of scientists in America and Japan claim a major scientific breakthrough in stem cell science. We have the details. Also, a manual of standard operating procedures at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility is leaked online. And we end with an in-depth look at how the bio-tech industry is trying to combat a growing global health issue -- obesity. All that, plus we pardon the Thanksgiving turkey, on this edition of The World's Technology Podcast. Tags: technology

Have you ever wondered why the PS button lights up on pictures and ads of the PlayStation 3 Sixaxis controller, but not on your own controller? The fact of the matter is that Sony's original intention was to illuminate the PS button. They had to scrap the idea in the final design of the Sixaxis controller to save production costs and keep the retail price low. After I saw these pictures, I felt like putting a LED under my own PS button. I decided that since I am doing the project, I might as well write instructions on how to do it as well. I tried to include many pictures and make a very descriptive, concise, step by step guide. Please note that the controller is very hard to put back together but if you have enough patience you can do it. Please read all the way through this tutorial before attempting. If you feel at all like you cannot accomplish this modification to your Sixaxis controller, DON'T. I am not responsible for any damage to your Sixaxis controller, expressed or implied, simply because this is a DIY tutorial. USE THIS TUTORIAL AT YOUR OWN RISK! Tags: controller, DIY, LED, PIC
