True, I forgot the national morning news shows. And daytime soaps. And paid programming on weekend afternoons. That TOTALLY sounds like it's worth $4 a month more than Hulu. (Even though Hulu actually offers a back catalog of network shows on demand, which this service, of course, does not.)

Nope, this isn't the case. National NFL games air on the major networks on Sunday. If you're talking Major League Baseball or pro hockey, you may get a game on the networks once in a blue moon, but like 95% of them air on your regional sports network (Fox Sports Detroit, Madison Square Garden network, etc.), all of…

"Is it worth it? It depends on how you're going to use it. If you want to record your favorite news broadcast or sports, Aereo is a godsend. It's impossible to get this content without cable or expensive sports streaming packages. On the other hand, if all you're interested in is a look at primetime network shows,…

@3%, totally agree. I want my tv "smart enough" to be able to watch whatever I feel like watching on it, but as a separate piece of gear, I want it invisible. The stuff I want to be able to get to is the Internet. Having the Internet built into my tv, rather than built into something I can connect to my tv, is not…

@wagnerrp, You're right, duh. I win the prize for worst. analogy. ever.

Actually I did remember the iMac! Which was totally revolutionary no doubt—in 1998. Today though, all-in-one computers are a small niche market for people who really, really like a clean-looking desk.

You are absolutely right, this is a big deal that a lot of the people predicting the death of cable don't get. Most people pop on the TV at night to relax. They don't want to have to make 15 separate conscious decisions for an evening in front of the boob tube. In the few studies people have done—taking normal,…

Yeah, I have never understood the draw here, unless you're one of the very small number of people who cut the cord with cable but doesn't have a connected gaming system, DVD player, streaming media box, or computer with a video out.

Rumors of cable's death have been greatly exaggerated. Yes, there are plenty of people (especially young people) who can get their network TV fix via OTA broadcasts and online. But network programming is just not where the money is. If you want to watch your local baseball, basketball, hockey, or college team, your…

Casablanca is perhaps the best movie ever committed to film. Singin in the Rain is just 100 minutes of pure, unadulterated wonderfulness. Where Casablanca makes you happy the medium of film exists, Singin in the Rain just makes you happy to exist, period. If human beings can produce something like Singin in the Rain,…

Oh geez, I didn't even know I was mangling proper Lego-hipster etiquette. (I will try harder dammit!) Oh well, at least I can still have street cred as a coffee snob.

You will be even more pissed when you do have kids, and you see how much Legos cost these days. Trust me on this one.

@twophrasebark, while you're urging people to grab their dictionaries for the word "subtext", you may want to flip over to the definition of "overwhelming." The first parts of the documentary dealing with the use of mirrors and discontinuity and shifting between real and imagined action really was fascinating—and the…

How is Lego not eco-friendly? Has anyone ever thrown away Legos intentionally? No. End of discussion.

So you spend $200 on a snazzy Nespresso machine, plus $51 a pound for fancy capsules in eight shiny colors (retailing exclusively at Nespresso boutiques in the world's leading cities!), and I'M a snob for brewing $14/lb coffee in my $30 chemex? Which takes a grand total of 4 minutes?

It is not hot enough to properly extract coffee, no—they max out at about 180 degrees, from what I've read, don't brew for long enough, use far too little coffee to begin with, and are, by nature, using coffee that was ground months previously and has lost much of its flavor. But plenty of folks don't care. (It's…

There are many things I feel when looking at this advertisement, but outrage just isn't one of them. Don't they get points for pure, mindless brazenness bordering on hilarity?

Ah, I see the Deadspin spirit lives on here at Gizmodo. At least over there, when they're trashing the personal lives of completely innocent bystanders, it fits in with the whole swinging-dick bravado of the site. Here? Like nails on a chalkboard. I don't come to Gizmodo to take voyeuristic pleasure in watching you…

Ah. Curious, if you have decided that bitterness is purely a matter of perception, why are you insisting that grapefruit is not bitter? For someone who believes that words like "sour" and "bitter" have no objective meaning, you are spending a lot of energy arguing that something is objectively one and not the other.

Fight! Fight! Fight! It is a nice opinion to have. Because it is based on scientific fact.
