It's good to be the king.

Zukincu13eMan when is this amazing service coming to all of the San Gabriel Valley. Probably not for a long time. Back in 2010 Verizon announced they were winding down their expansion of FiOS coverage. If your area never got it, it's unlikely they'll be entering your region any time soon...

"This tool reportedly has the power to "save lives" from the social company's new Menlo Park, CA headquarters." Did anyone else accidentally misread this as describing Zuckerberg, not the new feature?

Squicky, but awesome.

n3ard3athBut choice or not, marriage is interconnected with religion, and by being an homosexual you go against it. Marriage is a secular institution in the US, hence the reason that a marriage license is issued by the state and not by any place of worship. Whether or not any religious group...

"Just wondering; does that mean passengers can now also use their iPads during 'all phases of the flight' ?" No. From what I understand, the ban on electronics during takeoff/landing isn't so much about interference with traffic control signals (other than phones, which definitely could...

regnineurgpeople will complain about it, but ultimately very few will stop shopping online as a result of this, simply because laziness/convenience (however people want to sell it to themselves) will win out over getting out of the couch/chair to actually go somewhere to shop. gogo gadget...

I would totally buy those ice cream sandwiches if they made them.

The project manager on the Mars rover project spoke at my college a few years ago and explained why the rovers have relatively old and "underpowered" computing resources: chips that were designed to run just fine on earth may be too easily damaged in drastically different environmental...

HorheHarry Potter! That's what I thought when I read the headline. Clark's Third Law rears its head again...

glasssplinterSo how long until porn falls under this and kids can buy it? Doesn't that stifle first amendment rights? I guess cigarettes and alcohol are next... Pornography is classified as "obscenity" under law, and as such it is exempt from First Amendment protection. I read through the...

I originally saw the headline as "Former Bank of America Worker Stole ATMs" and was thinking "how did he get away with that for any length of time?"

No. Just no. This is a terrible move on EA's part. I'm not saying a game can't have multiplayer, but there are some games that just don't warrant more than one person playing at a time. Forcing all of their development studios to do this will more than likely lessen the overall quality of...
