We don't.

Gadgets don't need to use electricity.

Got my '99 Saturn SL in 2004, around this time of year. That makes 8 years and 125000 miles I've put on it. The car has been absolutely bulletproof. I sort of figured this would be the car I learned how to work on cars on, but apart from maintenance items (brakes, oil, belts, plugs/wires) it has needed a grand…

We can definitely pay in beer, as long as you're in the San Diego area! That was actually part of my potential remuneration package for said web designer.

So, my new brewery needs a website. We've had some hosting space donated to us by a friend, but we now need a web designer to design a professional looking website. We're running on a shoestring budget, but realize how important a good website is. Where do you guys find your web designers, and how should I evaluate…

Man, I love Corvettes of every stripe, but nothing makes me happier than watching these two idiots crash theirs.

Befitzero has some excellent advice. I would definitely start with a very basic equipment bundle and an extract kit. Do a few extract kits before moving up to partial-mash or all-grain brewing so you can learn the ropes: boil and hop additions, sanitation, and fermentation temperature control. I started on Northern…

Was going to mention this, but it's basically an unenforceable law. As long as you're not selling the stuff, the government doesn't care, and that's only because they want to collect tax on it.

Agreed, I do this to get them loose if I don't want to cut near whatever's tied, but this definitely bends the plastic that locks it in place making it much more flexible. I wouldn't reuse them, personally, as they're pennies apiece.

Agreed, I have Shun's classic 10" chef, as well as their paring knife and sushi knife (a remarkably versatile blade). Those are the only knives I need, and 90% of my cutting is still done with the chef's knife, which is so sharp I can do paring work with it if my wife is using the smaller knives. Good stuff.

Very cool stuff. For those of you second-guessing the price, I would imagine that's just the cost of all the individual parts he used to piece together the brewhouse (the part that produces wort) and not the cost of building the structure, the bar, coldspace, fermentor space, cooperage, and all the million other…

What that guy needs is a car elevator

My trackrecord of guessing the answer to the article title question remains unblemished. Hint: the answer is always "flatly, no."

True, but they make a good point that "stealing" the code from someone else does not deprive them of use of that code. It simply makes a copy. Not saying that should be used to justify pirating (it already is, though), but I'm glad they chose to make this distinction. I will be flabbergasted if this decision is…

Thirded. The footwell must have been lit, really nice and clear. Much better than other footwell vids. This video should have been called "a lesson in heel-toe."

Probably less effective, but infinitely more attractive, and subtle.

Just as an update to this story, we bought a 2012 GTI with convenience/sunroof a week ago Friday. The car was driven by a customer for a few weeks while the car she ACTUALLY bought sat on the lot, titled and registered in her name. So we got a basically brand new car that had never been titled for the price of the…

This is the best idea ever. Can't believe I didn't think of it. That said, I'm pretty sure my wife would see right through that, especially if we had already been shopping for cars. Definitely works better if you haven't. Oh well, at least we got the car that was #2 on my list, and I'm pretty sure it's a much…

What a class act. I'm always impressed when someone makes the decision that they're no longer going to drive. I guess you already knew she was a responsible driver, though, as she's only been in one accident in 48 years, and it wasn't her fault. I will drive cautiously all day in her honor.

Add another one to the pile: Gizmodo headlines that ask a question? The answer is invariably a resounding "No! Why would you even think that?"
