I suggest a new strategy, R2: Let the wookie sleep in.

That's true of course, which is why I mentioned it, but nobody can make an argument that the American taxpayers are getting $72,000,000 worth of value here. That's not even the important part, though. The fact that the military can't point to any evidence at all that their recruiting is benefiting from these…

I don't know- I think I disagree with both reasons the author gives for allowing the military to sponsor motorsport. First- recruiting: the biggest reason the sponsorships were on the chopping block is because the military has been completely unable to demonstrate they've had any effect at all on recruiting. In…

I disagree with the premise of this article. The fact that the nexus exists presents me with even more reason to be frustrated with Android fragmentation. Why? I bought the Nexus to avoid it, but apparently I can't escape fragmentation- I bought it from Verizon. Guess what? You don't get the updates as soon as…

FTA: "Unlike Matt, I don't mind the residues of the french press, but if this thing avoids them, it may be worth the $165."

Got to say this is my favorite of the lot so far. Excellent find.

Fantastic timing! I'm making a cherry/blackberry melomel (aka fruited mead- aka honey wine) tonight, and hadn't yet considered how to pit the cherries.

I don't know. I had an extremely great relationship with my everyday mechanic and didn't much care for paying specialists to do labor-intensive jobs on the vette (that I couldn't do in my apartment parking lot). Eventually there was a real problem I wasn't equipped to diagnose or repair, and regardless of whose fault…

On what merit? I'd say overall this is a pretty gleamingly positive review.

In many cases, better deals can be had by simply calling and asking for them. Most people are unwilling to do this, and it's easy, so worth a shot. I can typically get my room rates reduced. Also, if you feel like going the easy way and would like to save a little money, give all the hotels your spam email address.…

So close, and yet...

This can't NOT be good. All foods are improved by the addition of either.

This is a cool article. As a maker of beer, I really am glad that the beer community has chose "craft beer" as their signifier, and that so many eschew the term "artisan" when referring to the things they make. Connotative differences aside, I think there's an important gravitas behind "craftsmanship"- the…

Came here to say this- not sure what the issue is. What exactly is "harmful" "reckless" or "irresponsible" about this tip? Oh, right, nothing.

"Who's it for? People who watch a lot of video and never leave the couch" and also don't own a television or computer?

It would be if I was driving it.

Fanboy much? If you're going to manufacture, market, and sell an all-electric car that is designed to be used every day like anyone would use an ICE car, then it needs to be able to hold enough charge to get through a day of journo testing. This is clearly a play to prevent people from finding out how long the…

Great article! Very rarely does an article pose, analyse, and thoroughly answer a question you've always wondered about, but thought was un-answerable. Top notch.

Nope, the law still applies in that situation. A more common occurance would be a festival where homebrew is served. Homebrewers can give their beer away at festivals, but not at events where admission is charged. Sort of like how prostitution is still illegal even though the "escort" is charging for their company…

Yeah, but if you're going to store your password in a notebook, even if you're locking it up, it probably shouldn't say "HERE ARE ALL MY USERNAMES AND PASSWORDS, PARTICULARLY THE ONES WHICH ARE IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO HIDE, AND ARE DIFFICULT TO REMEMBER BECAUSE THE MOST IMPORTANT WEBSITES LIKE BANKS ALL HAVE STRICTER…
