@Tha36thchamber: Sounds to me like you'd make an excellent cop. Just remember to yell, "Stop resisting!" before pummeling your target.

@Celtic1888: "Looking back, who was it that through their old porn mags in the bushes?"

@kingcrim84: I had an almost identical experience after finding my best friend's parents' porn stash. Debbie Does Dallas both titillated and disgusted, and I didn't know why. All I knew was that I couldn't eat yogurt for about a year afterward...

@verspasian: The same way we know about Ramadan, ritual scarification, and the Chinese New Year? By not living under a rock and learning about other people's cultures?

@ludwigk: I think you meant "kinetically powered FLESHlight." No need to thank me.

@spydr101: I was being facetious. I greatly prefer Ethernet to wi-fi for the reasons I mentioned. It was more a defense of my beloved BOGB than of HDMI. Though now that you mention it, I woudl take a reliable, high-bandwidth wired connection over the flaky nature of wireless.

@whatne1wuddo: They're a reliable , stable connection that carry more bandwidth than most commercially available wireless technologies while providing greater security? Wow, I didn't know HDMI could do all that :-)

@ZachMatthews: Or pining for the fjords...

I'm a subscriber and would like this app. But I'm really very annoyed by their business model. Despite being a subscriber (6 issues for $25.00, which is extortionate for a magazine) I must pay an additional annual fee to get on-line content (another $35/year). And Kimball is such a whiny prick about it, too. "Oooh,…

@evanminn01: I have no idea how my friends use Facebook, because as far as I know none of the people I continue to maintain a relationship with uses it. I find the concept of posting details about my life for consumption by a large numbers of people (friends or otherwise) vaguely narcissistic. As such, I feel that the…

Off topic, I know. But I just have to comment on Fast Company's byline.

"one of the most important seismic shifts in communication in the modern age"

@Sharkbreath: What's a jib? Oh, and is the poop deck really what I think it's for?

@Slatz_Grobnik: At least they didn't go for "War of Northern Aggression."

@Jimmy Nguyen: I live about 15 minutes away from Cumming. Sometimes only 5. It didn't always used to be that way. When I was younger, I often lived as much as 45 minutes away. Farther if I had been drinking.

@Josh_Geyer: That's funny, because I used to work in the horse section of PetCo, and some insane fish... nevermind.

@retrac: Really? I have the Tritton headset and find the sound tinney and a little echoey. Can't say that I'm disappointed, but I'm not hugely impressed, either.

Seems 3.1.3 versus 4.1 would be a more relevant comparison. Since 4.0 on a 3G is known to be terrible, knowing that 4.1 is marginally faster is not of much use. Does it restore pre-4.0 functionality or not?

@JabbaB: I work with stupid people. It's not their fault that they are stupid. So I find your statement offensive.

@cfive3: Methinks you misinterpret the first amendment. There are alternative avenues of distribution. They just don't want to sell it through the PX. Choosing what they offer through the PX is no different than Wal-Mart's decision not to stock Vomit Porn Ass Rebellion 3 - The Cockening. But more understandable,…
