    Resident Evil Rises Again for New Consoles

    It'd be cool if they could make it the same fidelity as the GCN remake, only this time with real-time graphics instead of pre-rendered scenes. That game has stood the test of time quite well.

    Should You Use a Password Manager?

    While I like password managers, there's just one thing I wish they'd do: two-step verification. I do have a lot of my important accounts locked behind two-step verifications where possible, I do want it for my manager as well.

    Roku CEO: DVR is Dying Relic

    Hey Roku, if you can convince ISPs to give us unlimited bandwidth at pretty fast speeds (20Mbps/30Mbps to start) without telling us to bend over, then I'll believe what you'll say. Otherwise streaming content is about as meh as long as ISPs hold dear to their monopolies and negative innovation.

    Serious Internet Explorer Flaw Affects XP, Goes Unpatched

    UAC is what brings Windows to Unix-like security levels. Running an admin account without UAC enabled may as well be running like root. And there was a zero-day exploit years ago that affected Windows 2000 and XP, but could not affect Vista because of UAC. Either way, the point is, Microsoft...

    Are OLED TVs Doomed?

    What I don't understand is why did they have to go to other size extreme at 55"? Why not release smaller sized TVs? Or heck, why not release OLED computer monitors? Why does OLED have to be either in 5" smartphones or 55" TVs?

    Unless you're packing plastic bullets... I'm pretty sure those x-rays will see those very suspicious bullet looking objects

    3D-printed Gun CAD Files Pulled from Web

    Is it scary this thing is now going to be on the web? Sure, but keep in mind... - There were no accounts the Liberator (what this gun was based off of) was used as an effective weapon... if as a weapon at all. The Allies believed it to be more useful as a psychological warfare tool. - Even if it...

    Another reason why I don't want the Facebook app (aside from annoying the hell out of me as it is).

    Patent Troll Data Carriers Sues Another 24 Victims

    Part of me is thinking... I'm surprised patent trolls haven't gotten angsty enough to sue media outlets for calling them patent trolls yet.

    Seriously: The Virtual Happy Hour is Now Patented

    Let me play devil's advocate for a second... What if someone files a patent and had all the intent in the world to make that invention become true, but due to funding issues, could not after a certain period of time? Then some big company claims "look, that guy isn't doing anything with his...
