i can't wait for the tipping point when more people subscribe to streaming services than cable television. The sooner it dies, the better.

Do Apple users really think they are better educated than Windows users? Apple's operating systems are the most dumbed down and locked down software out there. They don't even think you are capable of changing your own battery. One mouse button? They market to idiots. Apple thinks you are...

I don't know about other smart TVs, but a Samsung smart TV is leaps and bounds ahead of a Roku. Plex and Netflix run flawlessly for the most part. Roku is slower, and its remote has like 3 buttons. The interface also looks much nicer on the Samsung than the Roku. I have had the Roku 1, Roku 2...

There is no way this thing will sell for $300. To put that in perspective, that's half the price of a new smartphone. The hardware is too complex and the sales volume will be too low.

Why are you reposting this same crappy story?

Compare an entry level CNC mill like a Tormach to these 3D printers. For around the same price you could be working with aluminum, and have stronger and more accurate results with plastics. The capabilities of the 3D printers aren't even close...

It doesn't sound like this was an issue of Target's records being hacked, because Target is stating the only people affected are the ones who made purchases over a narrow time frame. If it was a matter of their database being hacked, the criminals would have records going back much furthur. Like...

Absurd app permissions are common. They are the bane of any knowledgeable android user. Besides serverly hampering the android experience, they create real security vulnerabilities. An extremely simple solution would be for Google to allow you to restrict permissions on an app by app basis and...

Every single one. I can't stand people selling false promises. How many dads are out there dreaming about making toys for their children, and invest their hard earned money in something that can't deliver? It's not right.

If this was a design that could make money, they wouldn't need to go the way of crowd funding. If you want to make stuff, and by stuff I mean something more substantial than plastic light switch covers, go take a machine shop class at your local high school or community college. Go buy a used...

There is no way you are getting close to 75% of what you paid for an iPhone one year later.

"One petition in March 2013 implored President Barack Obama to legalize the unlocking of smartphones..." First of all, Congress is responsible for enacting legislation, not the president. I know if you looked at all executive orders the president signs, one might not realize this, but that is...

CaedenV, you nailed it as to why consumers are so excited about 3D printing: they are lazy idiots. If anyone is interested in making something more practical than custom light switch covers, 3D printing is not for you. Go take a machine shop class at your local community college.

You have no idea what you are talking about if you think milling machines are limited to two dimensions. In fact, I can't think of a CNC router that has less than 4 axes that isn't part of a specialized assembly process. As to your other point that milling machines can't produce 3 dimensional...

The CNC milling machines that have been around for decades are vastly superior to 3D printers in every imaginable way except one: marketing. Seriously, what is with 3D printers being pushed so hard by the pseudo techies? The ones affordable to the general public are limited to weak plastic...
