This is all conjecture, but the fact that the super-cooled fuel had to be unloaded and the rocket then sat outside before being reloaded and cooled again very well could have contributed to this failure. If they do find that to be the case I fully support Orbital suing the operator of the sailboat for the full cost of…

Some airlines, and some airline crews, may frown upon you taping a device to the windows of their aircraft. This is likely to change between airlines and flights, but you are always going to be subject to the demands of the flight crew that may or may not allow this. I'm going to test with my next flight (which won't…

Because I love flying, and seeing the country pass by at hyperlapse speed is interesting to me. I agree that takeoff and landing are most interesting, but I'd rather have the whole thing personally.

I'm perfectly okay with mounting weapons systems on all aircraft that can detect a laser pointed at the aircraft and immediately fire a missile at the source.

I suppose it would depend on the airline, but I can't see every flight allowing you to tape your phone to the window. I was also thinking I could just bring my suction mount, but I also don't know if they'd let that fly either. I don't really fly that often, and I would love to record my flights in such a manner the…

I have no plans on holding my phone up to the window for an entire flight anytime soon, but I don't disagree that this is awesome.

Watched on my phone, video filled up my whole screen nicely. Looks like other people need to find a better viewing platform.

Now I'm going to call it an FRS

This.

I am the opposite of angry, I read every single comment you made and laughed harder at each one. It isn't your opinion I disagree with and that's the major difference between the pot and kettle here. I don't expect you to understand though, and I don't wish to attempt to participate in intelligent discourse with…

Intelligent discussion isn't quite the same thing as deciding that your answer is the only possible correct answer and getting angry and insulting anyone that disagrees. In fact, that is the opposite of intelligent discourse. Getting angry that someone could dare view a situation differently than you is a sure sign of…

I can't even imagine how miserable a life someone must lead to get this mad about something like this. I hope your day gets better man.

Thank you for these posts every week. I may or may not be getting my television from a market other than my own via methods of questionable legality (because where I live won't let me mount an antenna on the 30 foot pole I would need to get broadcast TV here) so this is useful to know what games I can actually watch.

I was initially as confused as the OP, and I am still just as confused. Why did it ever make sense to anyone to design a car wash so that an employee has to jump in to a moving car in order to prevent it from crashing into something? That just has bad idea written all over it. Even if the door didn't lock what if the…

Three times during that video I grabbed onto the arm rests of my office chair to brace for impact.

It is a Roku 3 I bought last year, 4200X model (though I've been told the X just designates that it was purchased online through a partner retailer). I may try to do something tonight to put some sort of object between the Roku and the Microwave to see if that helps.

I guess I should have included this in my original post, but the Roku is the only device that has problems. My router is directly underneath the Roku, but out of three smartphones, two laptops, and two Rokus(Roki?) only the one Roku next to the microwave ever has any problems. I've actually tried streaming the same…

Question: sometimes when my microwave is on my Roku stops being able to find an internet connection (the Roku is mounted to the back of my wall mount, which is about two feet from the microwave). Will my Roku get cancer? I need to replace the microwave, obviously, but I'm broke and getting laid off on Friday so I'd…

I get it now. Sorry for some reason it feels like today's just a repeat of Monday for me, my brain is in full durr mode today.

There's a shorter version of this list:
