Could there be a holiday gift better for the geek in your life than an Ars Technica "nuke it from orbit" mug? Probably! But you'd better buy one anyway—it's the only way to be sure. (Also, the mugs are less expensive than ever.)

Designed by our own Aurich Lawson, our mugs come direct from the Ars Technica Orbiting HQ to your kitchen cupboard, feature spiffy front and back designs, and are dishwasher and microwave safe. You can also get them in 11oz and 15oz sizes. Originally $15 or $17, we've been able to cut prices back to $13 and $16, respectively. As always, the mugs ship anywhere in the world.









T-shirts, too

Don't forget that we also offer two different Ars-branded T-shirts for $20 each. Printed on Bella + Canvas 3001 unisex shirts in multiple colors and plenty of sizes (everything from S-4XL), our shirts are 100 percent combed and ring-spun cotton (except for heather, which contains some polyester).

They run toward the fitted side—but aren't as slim as American Apparel. You might want to size up if you like a loose fit.
