How do you figure society isn't concerned with dying in motor vehicle accidents? We have all kinds of campaigns like "drive sober or get pulled over" or "it can wait" and we have seen huge improvements in passenger protection in the vehicles themselves over the last ~40 yrs. Seat belts, Airbags, side airbags, crumple zones, automatic braking, etc. etc. etc. We also have all kinds of laws trying to improve the safety of motor vehicles. Speed limits, for example... and we've even changed our roads to make them more safe. Not terribly concerned? GTFO.

Everyone said the GOP needed to soul search and rebuild after the 2008 and 2012 elections and they came up with Trump in 2016. What makes you think somehow doing that again will yield a better result?

Damn it Uncle Ralph, nobody wants to see you naked! Stop asking!

Well said. I dream of a world that doesn't need heroes, not a world full of them.

So you're saying everyone you know of who has gotten struck twice, has survived? Maybe we should throw lightning parties so we can all make sure we get struck twice!

There is a legit game on the play store (actually more than one) that has this gameplay called "How to loot" and it is exactly what you think it is. I suspect this game was created after the demand was drummed up by all the fake ads. I downloaded it and idly played through all 360 levels they had and no, none of them are really any challenge. It's a good time killer, and that's it. Probably better for you than trolling through political headlines. Cut the Rope is a better game in this genre in my opinion, and it's been around for years.

Ya, not really sure how this is news for nerds, and definitely is not stuff that matters.

How would you put a case on this, given the way it hinges? I mean, I have to imagine people will want a protective case on their $1,000 smartphone, but I can't figure out how a case would even work on this thing.

Isn't that how it works with every other car on the market?

What's funny (as in smelling) is that the ones with a backbone who do say no to things end up being told they aren't a team player and get pushed out.

Maybe the town wouldn't stink so much if you wouldn't leave your banana peels laying around in the hallways.

I want to believe this, but it desperately needs a citation (or multiples).

It's funny to me that this is modded flamebait and yet obvious flamebait posts like "Hello, the 1950's called, and they'd like their "Scary Commie" meme back." elsewhere on the article are modded "insightful". Slashdot is every bit as bad as facebook and reddit and it's not because of corporate leadership, it's because of the user base. The only reason facebook does the ad targeting referenced in the article is because IT WORKS and both they and the advertisers make easy profits from those people.

You know it's bad when even Satan is sick of it...
