Wow, what a bunch of bullshit. Facebook's entire business model is built around advertising, thats where they get their money. They didnt miss the mark, or drop the ball on privacy concerns. THEY SOLD US OUT! Whatever appeasements they are claiming to make will still be with their advertisers...

Silicon JesusI just don't get why. The table would look odd without a tv on it. You can't put much on it, or the tv will knock it over when it comes up/the object will obstruct the view. Just glue some potted plants to the top of the tv, duh. That way they will move up and down with the tv.

UmeNNis"The term explosive decompression refers to a rapid drop in air pressure itself and does not imply a cabin or fuselage exploding due to a rapid pressure change. Using a high-pressure airplane and several scale tests, the television program Mythbusters examined the belief that a bullet...

wtfzorsAny hydroponics farmer from the 1990s can tell you that LEDs are not a suitable substitution for sunlight. Old news. Just because some designer (I bet hes on unemployment..) put LEDs in a parallelogram array does not mean there has been any breakthrough that befits a tech news site.It's...

A cousin of mine serves in the navy on board a submarine, where they spend something like 3 months at a time completely under water never reaching the surface. The ships interior lights change colors at night just so people feel some sort of change, even if it just means going from white to...

LLJonesLLJones... If there is a bullet which can be safely discharged from a firearm to completely incapacitate someone without damaging the structural integrity of the plane in any way, then I'm all for it. I'll go look up this "glaser safety slug" bullet to see how reliable something like this...

grieveYou are so right man... NEVER buy on credit. 1 exception, to gain points.... I place everything on credit and pay the bill as i use the card before the bill even comes to my door. Credit will destroy your life.Hate to go off on a tangent, but FYI your credit building system (one which is...

LLJonesbla bla bla.... Do you realize what would happen if you fired a gun through the window or an airplane at 35,000 feet? Go look up something called explosive decompression. One single bullet penetrating the side of an airplane could easily cause that entire section of the airplane to break...

I for one am willing to admit that if I had access to an x-ray scanner like this, and some perfect 10 model walks through and I get to see everything in all it's grainy black & white glory, I'd probably love it. Women have a strong right to be concerned here because there are enough hornballs...

And people keep comparing him as an experience pilot to a fresh newb who just received his license and asking which they prefer; But lets not mix apples and orange people. If you had some fresh graduate with his license and 100 hours of flight time, or this guy when he had only 100 hours of...

There's a lot of learning that goes into getting your license than just learning how to control the stick people. Sure this guy is a natural in the air, and knows how to move a plane, but thats where his knowledge ends. He probably knows nothing about weight and balance, fuel concerns, max...

twisted politiksThis article seems to be missing information that would help decide whether it was the consumers fault, or Verizon's 'small print' BS. I've read this article before, they had a free unlimited data plan offered to them when they signed up for the first two years. They had gotten...

Pretty big fail imo. Googlecar pranks are only good when they dont look so obviously pre-planned. These guys were so late upon seeing the car that we get to see them running and staging their pose, which kinda ruins the whole thing.

sliemCall of Duty: Stoneage Warfare............ what the fuck dude, you need to get laid or something.

Last map pack I ever bought for a game was Battlefiend 2 special forces and Armored fury. With that you got like 6 new maps, new vehicles, new weapons, and new tactics like the ability to use a grappling hook to scale building walls and stuff. THAT was a map pack, and it only cost $20 I think...
