    Yeah someone really has a terrible sense of humor. I can't believe that every joke made received negative ratings.

    NASA Finds Cocaine in Space Shuttle Hanger

    "We are conducting an investigation and working with center security and law enforcement officials to get to the bottom of it." Perhaps not the best choice of words here. Get to the bottom of the bag of cocaine.....

    UFO Spotted Above the Kremlin in Moscow

    I don't know about you, but if I was driving that car and saw that, I wouldn't be calmly navigating the streets. I'd pull my ass over and get out to look at it!

    Verizon: ETFs Help the Poor Afford Smartphones

    Whats the big deal? If you can make it 23 months through a contract why would you not be able to hold on for 1 more month? Seems like a rarely encountered scenario anyways.

    Microsoft Fires Back at Xbox Live Lawsuit

    Haven't people lost access to stuff on their hard drive because of the "update" that MS put out when trying to log onto live with a mod'd xbox? I can certainly understand not allowing people who pirate the ability to access any of the services or to render their units useless, but I'm sure...

    JasonAkkermanVerison and Sprint are indeed both CDMA carriers. AT&T and T-Mobile are GSM, not HSDPA. HSDPA and HSUPA (High Speed Downlink/Uplink Packet Access) are protocols and constitute the real meaning of 3G. CDMA and GSM are different types of radios, both of with can use...

    Report: GM Green Lights Hybrid Cadillac

    The biggest problem with Hydrogen right now is the lack of infrastructure. Sure people could but a machine for home use, but how many people have an extra $2000 to tack onto their car purchase? Also who has the space to put it anywhere? And how many people would WANT it there? Without a wide...

    WHO: Cell Phones Linked to Brain Cancer, Again

    Without reading the details of the report, its hard to say, but how did they analyze the people that never used a cell phone?

    Great now the food Industry has a new market to tap. Fight malaria and get fat at the same time. Because Americans aren't obese enough for the rest of the world we need to get kids addicted to sweets while telling them it's good for themselves

    More Blu-ray Players to Hit $99 This Holiday

    I have had a blu ray player for over a year now and have yet to pay more than $15 for any movie. Most of the ones that I've bought at that $15 price point were new releases after a few weeks of their release date. You just have to look for deals a little harder than you would for dvds. There...
