...and the strategy, and the focus on fitness and stamina, and the length of careers, and all amateur boxing, and the health of boxers, and the frequency of fights, and the likelihood of boxing remaining legal and sanctioned. Boxing has never been street fighting, and will never become such.

Bravo. While I agree wholeheartedly, I can't help but find it a bit ironic that you question the manliness of boxing detractors while purposely concealing your own fake online identity.

You care enough to type about it. And as someone whose DNA is upwards of 3% neanderthal, I am offended.

The Playboy argument is a common one but a bad one, and I'll tell you why. If no one cared about the articles in Playboy it wouldn't exist in the form it does. There are plenty of other skin mags, most of which do not include any appreciable journalism or literary entertainment. So if Playboy's success were not largely (certainly not entirely) due to the articles, it would not exist, or at the very least would not be the clear cut most popular magazine to feature naked ladies. Of course dudes dig the boobs, but if they didn't like the articles they'd buy the competing products that feature way more nudity and little to no text.

For the record, I've never purchased a Playboy or competing mag, and I don't buy any sort of magazine anymore, because the internet. And I do like boxing for reasons other than brutality. If someone just wants to see knockouts and people getting hurt there's Youtube and a million other sites for that.

As already pointed out above, boxing does not cause Parkinson's disease, so please come up with a better argument.

I see an issue with your wifi: you spent way too much money on computers to use it.

Here's a general list of where NOT to drive your electric car:

Almost anywhere more than 50 miles away from your garage.

Somewhere, Steve Jobs is spinning in his grave.

I, for one, can't wait for OS X 10.11 "Vista," or for Apple to completely scrap the interface all of their users are used to when the go Full Microsoft.

Name one phone with good software and crappy hardware that I'd consider using. There isn't one. Good software doesn't make the weak screen or camera good. Processor speed may be over rated, but adequate RAM is certainly not, especially with a low-end processor.

Eww, yuck.
Pros: cheap, has FM radio
Cons: every other single thing about it.
Verdict: no thanks. I don't care what you compare it to, it still stinks. This is like comparing dog shit to wolf shit.

Ubuntu phone, not Obama phone, but thank you for your interest Mr. Limbaugh.

...in your comment.

If you aren't interested in the nature of our universe, or the possible existence of other universes that might be able to interact with ours, that's fine, but lots of us don't feel the same way. Numerous important scientific advances have come from what initially looked like useless findings, so just because you don't know right now how this might be applied to future technologies that doesn't mean it is a dead end.

The proposed experiment does not require an other-dimensional intelligence conducting an identical experiment, jut another universe. The neutrons would leak out of our universe and then back in, untouched.

Great job correcting it then, AC. Way to bring something useful to the table.

Try harder next time, and post under your own name if you want to call someone out like that.
