    AT&T U-Verse: More Networking Perks Than Cable/Sat

    I hate those cursed 2Wire devices. Classic single point of failure, but that might be forgivable if they didn't suck so bad. If AT&T forced me to use one of these obnoxious devices I would never switch. As annoying as having more boxes sitting somewhere is, you're better off with a dedicated...

    Apple Patents Drop Down Menu After 11 Years

    anonanonanonwell microsoft did patent the page up and page down buttons on keyboards a while back...I invented the delete key. In my factory I reward my workers every time we find a new way to correct a mistake with a Tofutti break. It tastes just like ice cream, you know ;) Remember this...

    Backup Singer Sues Rockstar for $250M

    sirmorlukThis guy must be insane in the membrane.Perhaps he's been taking a few too many hits from the bong. But you know, with this lawsuit, what we have here is something we can't understand. Then again, maybe he wants to be a rock superstar and live large. Seriously though, if they used...

    Rude Seller Claims Google Helps Him Profit

    The BBB used to mean something, but the internet has rendered them pretty much useless. I wonder if there's evidence linking the declining usefulness of the BBB with the corruption I've heard about since (like what mavroxur mentioned).

    Call of Duty Players Decimate World Population

    alienedlol? No, CONSOLES suck; because of consoles the pc has never been able to perform at its full capacity. Because of the poor graphic performance of consoles, video games have to be limited on the use of the GPU’s, enough said.This is true until you go past the point when the console market...

    BlackBerry Makers Buy the Android UI Designers

    This is a wise move- Blackberry's device software is a jumbled mess (I like jimmycrack's Windows 3.1 analogy, though I'd have said Windows 95). Making changes to a Blackberry is a royal pain, especially system settings, and walking a user through troubleshooting one is more difficult than other...

    Study: Internet and Tech Making Kids Dumber?

    Before computers it was consoles/"Nintendo" (since all consoles were "Nintendos" to non-gamers a la Kleenex or Xerox). Before old-school consoles it was the arcades, and before the arcades it was television. Going back further it was radio and comic books; I'd have to research beyond that but...

    Apple Threatens Steve Jobs Doll Manufacturer

    ctbaarsI would think Steve Jobs would be a "public figure". And as such, is open to this kind of stuff. You cannot do it to a "private person".Especially since it's not particularly insulting. Now if it came with accessories like, say, half-eaten baby corpses, a pentagram base, or other such...

    Bungie Looking for Beta Testers

    qu3beckerFree game testing, geez, I'm a paid functionality game tester and that mean less job for us. I doubt it. Assuming you know what you're doing there are certain things that you're going to be able to find and report that the average gamer, or even the serious enthusiast, won't. You'll...

    Panasonic Invests/Buys Into $30 Million in Tesla

    huskerGreat comment supertrek, but I'd like to point out one other thing about ethanol - there's a catch: According to scientists in New York and California, it takes more energy to make ethanol than you get back in fuel savings. According to David Pimentel of Cornell University, it takes the...

    Judge Finally Nukes LimeWire's P2P Client

    TommySchLOL the music industry kills another dying P2P platform. They help piracy by providing natural selection, they finish the dying softwares. If it wasn't for them going after napster we would still be using that crap today. They helped popularize the torrent protocol. Thank you! Thanks...

    Teen Sentenced to Prison For Lasering a Helicopter

    I'm glad I read the original article, and even they left out a couple of details that would clarify the circumstances. The kid pointed the laser at a police chopper that was investigating a burglary. The chopper pilots report being blinded by "a bright green light." Mr. Yam's version leaves...
