This makes me think of those pet-shaming photos that seem to be making their rounds on the internet lately. Is it going to be a picture of an apple with a sign around it saying "I made a mockery of the judicial system."?
I hated the rumble pack addition to the controllers. I will hate this as well. If you want to do anything with the controllers, make them cool down a little bit so long gaming sessions don't give you hot sweaty hands anymore.
What's with the religious nonsense in the last paragraphs? It has nothing to do with the finding at all.
Just make IKEA instructions for it.
It's like that in Chicago too. You drive around the block a few times. The parking lot is for testing parking in between the lines. But most places don't even test for parallel parking anymore. Yes, we have a ton of really shitty drivers here...
Gnome is the joke.
Perhaps someone knows... The more massive the gravitational field, the more time dilation, yes? The farther out you go the less drastic the effect is. Could the rotation just appear (to our frame of reference) to be moving not as fast in the middle (where the gravity is strongest) even though it is moving as it should according to our theories?
Pleaded at the quality of the proofreading as usual. Keep up the good work, editors.
No, I'm pretty sure C4 on a piano is more like this.

Humans share genes with chimps, fish, worms, plants, and bacteria. Moving one gene from one organism family to another does not make it inherently bad. It just makes some people squirm because they think it's "icky." You aren't suddenly going to turn into a jellyfish because you ate something with a gene from one in it. This isn't sci-fi.
Emphasis on the part that I felt was entirely overdue.
HB 3782 prevents employers from screening potential job candidates or reprimanding current employees based on information from their social network accounts that would otherwise be private.
ie. They can't just friend you or your friends in order to glean info off of your account and then fire you for it. I would imagine that if you have the info set to openly public it might be in the gray area.
Now if we could get them to remove the stipulation in affirmative action laws that allow them to decide what they think you are (race/gender/etc) and document it after you choose to opt out of offering them the information. (I've had several issues with this in the past few years)
Do I use them myself for anything other than music I've bought from them? No, largely because I'm too much of a cheapskate and 5Gb isn't enough to store my music collection.
I never understood why people would use the services like this with such a small storage amount. My collection is too big to take with me (over 300GB) but I have an SD card on my phone (32GB of drive space I literally take with me everywhere). Only has a one time cost. Weighs virtually nothing and is the size of my pinky nail. I can use it anywhere, more places than the cloud reaches with more space than the services typically offer. I can connect it to anything that has a USB jack or microSD slot. Unless the services start offering enough space for me to listen to my entire music collection on the go, they are completely obsolete already.
That author's photo at the end is bloody terrifying...
Back on topic... I wonder what the mechanisms are for the new CO2 scrubbers.
I'd love to see a Witchblade or The Darkness in live action + CGI form. The tech is obviously mature enough for it now. Get the people that worked on the design for the Alien/s/Predator movies props to make it look semi-realistic. Probably not iconic/popular enough for the mass audiences though. (possibly too dark for some as well.)
