Very nice, and way more awesome than the main campus in Redmond. I mean, it's nice to have your own office, but nothing fun or engaging about the environment.

In many cases, if a body destined for cremation isn't going on public viewing (i.e open-viewing funeral), it isn't embalmed. So no chance for a posthumous liposuction.

Why are you assuming s/he didn't read the article? Perhaps s/he is just commenting on how useful a 4K video is on one's standard TV equipment at home.

Does anyone have an idea of scale on this thing? I couldn't find anything specific on the artist's site, but could have totally missed it.

We've been using a comal for cooking tortillas for years. Feels like it gives me a bit more control on how cooked they turn out (my wife likes her VERY cooked, while I don't).

Totally showing my age here, but I'd say Thor looks like a vintage Dapper Dan doll. Yep, had one of these guys.

So very awesome. Just pledged $75!

Agreed! More magic to balance out the science.

This Spoiler day makes me all kinds of happy!

I'm sounding like some crazy contrarian, but I still don't believe the Apple iTV thing. Won't believe it until I see the actual product, given that there just seems to be good reasons for Apple *not* to do this.

I have no problems with GarageBand. Lots of folks (including me) use it regularly with no issues. What might be non-intuitive for you, isn't for everyone.

If you're on a Mac, and have iLife, you shouldn't be using iTunes to make ringtones. GarageBand can knock 'em out super-fast and easy.

Don't forget about the colony that lives under the I-135 bridge between Round Rock and Georgetown. When they're coming out in the evening, they look like huge plumes of smoke. Pretty cool.

Amen to that.

Okay, I burned out on Star Wars ages ago... but this is awesome. I'd totally plunk down the cash for one of these.

For better or worse (in your case, I'm guessing worse), 8-bit is a style now. The technical advances of hi-res screens aren't going to banish it. Just look at the success of games like Sword and Sworcery on the iPhone (which, BTW, is kinda awesome).

Looks like some nice changes. Add the purchase of Penultimate to this, and there's some real promise here.

Mmmmmm.... maybe. Can't be any worse than Alcatraz, and we made it pretty much through the entire season of that mess (funny enough, got all the way to the end and didn't even watch the finale).

*cough cough* The Man from Atlantis *cough cough*

I had a bunch of SIGNUMs for my big wooden IKEA desk, and they worked great. But now that I've migrated to a smaller, glass-top desk, the old "rain gutter" approach is just right. I actually attached it to the wall directly behind my desk (rather than to the desk itself), and it keeps the floor under my desk…
