Eco-geek Obama and his fans approve.

I must be the only person on the planet bending over backwards to make sure my Facebook posts [facebook.com] *are* public, because I've got nothing to hide and I honestly enjoy hearing from random people on my posts. Took some digging to find the options to open public comments.

Wow, way to sensationalize the crap out of this Paparazzi article there, MTV... er... Gizmodo.

I see what you're stuck on, and unfortunately a lot of people stumble on the same tired old pitfalls of "why not to buy an EV" as well. See, you're still stuck on chemical energy density, when it's an entirely different and completely non-comparable type of measurement. You can't recharge gasoline... which is a…

Well, I do agree... we're not going to out-and-out "run out" of oil full-stop. But there is going to be a major paradigm shift in the way humanity consumes oil, because we are going to reach a point where oil no longer gushes from wells, and it all has to be "mined" like tar sands oil, at great environmental costs.…

Electric cars. Because in 100 years, fossil fuels will be in a completely different state than they are today - it's a well-known fact that we are running out of oil, and in 100 years we are not going to be driving gas-powered cars. Period. End of discussion.

That's a complete lie, and I'm something of an expert in the battery tech field. The batteries don't just go bad if you don't treat them "just right". They're VERY reliable systems and have had years of development put into them to make them reliable. In fact, Tesla even explained why that ONE SINGLE incident occurred…

Screw you guys, Falcon 4 would have been better. Name relevant. =P

So, we've got Russia, the United States, and... Elon Musk. One of these is not like the others.

No... the way I read it is "if you don't want to pay taxes on your goober-bazillions and you want to evade taxes by no longer being a citizen, then fine, we'll deport your ass, and you can pay no taxes that way".

I hesitantly opted to sacrifice my beloved keyboard for a Nexus S 4G for $100. I hate typing on it, still, even 2 months after getting it. I cannot fathom the stupidity of companies for following Apple's example and ditching the keyboard.

Yeah, I'm about as big a bird lover as they come - at least, of one particular species (name related)... but I've always known wind turbines pretty much pose absolute zero threat to the little fluffballs. More ridiculous excuses from the rabid anti-"green" types that reject all clean technology no matter where it…

I'll buy that. Should just come up with a slightly different name for it or something. FFS, stupid online services do it all the time, "Vimeo" for a new video service instead of giving it a name like "Online Video Sharing Service #4". Works for them...

And this is less edible or less appetizing... why? I really don't see how creative use of science to make sustainable quantities of "premium" food for all who demand it is somehow "evil"...

My current laptop has a 30gb SSD and a 500gb HDD in the optical drive bay (using an adapter from eBay).

The number of comments I'd read referring to the technical "kidneys" plurality instead of actually discussing the article was really getting to me. That's all. -_-

I'm all for more F-16s to replace the F-18s that keep dropping like... hornets... dohoho. cough.

Christ, drop it already.

YES!! Except I never played sims. I just love F-16s. I actually felt LESS bad about it knowing it was an F-18. "Meh, another F-18. Hope the pilot was alright. Sucks he had to fly that thing". I'm such a bastard. But, what's in a name, right?

"Now, what am I supposed to tell the press?"
