Brief news items of note for Lifehacker readers, including: hilarious military failures caught on video, the best cosplay creations of 2013, behind the wheel of BMW’s futuristic i3 hatchback.
- This really made me giggle. Some roguish rapscallion with an Xbox One has created the gamertag “Xbox Sign 0ut”.

You can watch the video here.
- Whatever your stance on warfare might be, it can’t be denied that this video compilation of military cock-ups is pretty damn funny. Well, apart from the scary warzone stuff, obviously.
