The big problem is that now, everyone is an expert. People can call pictures and videos fake in just one viewing, they can form opinions on complex legal, medical, psychiatric, and ethical issues after reading one article or viewing one video. Of course, this is all BS. We have become the United States of Snap…

Exactly. People who bitch about government regulation for products and industry should have to live in a place that has no such controls for a while. After a few months with air they can't breathe, water they can't drink, products that kill their children, products that die 3 days after you buy them (with no warranty…

Horrible color on that M3. Great car though!

Some of my worst memories about my old man were from working on projects with him. He was as far from being mechanically inclined as one could be, and I was the complete opposite. So, we argued about how to do things, and he got mad because I put things together without reading the directions. It was usually going to…

Apparently, crime does not pay, since your sim is using a 1980's era VIC Commodore computer.

Who knew that those postage stamp-sized product image photos on Amazon are actually gigantic? Not me, obviously. The really don't want you using their images. :)

Sorry for the giant pic guys! I had no idea that it was so huge! I just posted it, and exited before I saw what it looked like. That is ridiculous. I just took the pic from Amazons page.

Programmable remote control, especially the Logitech remotes. I used a universal remote years ago, and dealt with entering all of the damn codes. I decided against them for years, until is found a Logitech on sale for $50 just before last Christmas. This model was over $100 back then, but it is down to $67 on Amazon…

It is ridiculous how much this thing is in my hands now. Mine will go months without even being turned off. It is so simple to pull up a web page with one of these. Even something like watching TV has changed. Do you see an actor on a show, and wonder where you remember them from? Open up IMDB, and find out in…

Do NOT use these on any screen printed labels on appliances! I used one to clean up a slightly grungy washer before I sold it on Craigslist. It was working perfectly until I decided to clean the control panel. Suddenly, various printed settings and indicators started to disappear with just a single swipe. If you are…

I feel absolutely crippled using a computer with a single display. I use three screens at a time now, and I refuse to work with anything less than two. Since everyone expects an instant reply to emails, you need at least one screen dedicated to email alone, so you can monitor it constantly. That is why having two…

I'll go one better. T-Handle Allen's with replaceable bits. I have set up many production lines that used these as the primary hand tool. The ones in the picture will round off in a production environment, and you are left with a useless tool. I pay a good bit more for T-handle wrenches with replaceable bits, but they…

Well, that was a set-up if I have ever seen one. Someone obviously alerted the police to be on the look out for him. I did not see anything on the video that would cause him to be pulled over (and if he had done so, wouldn't that part be in the video, since that was their probable cause? This was a BS arrest from the…

Well, regardless of the cost, it beats the hell out of sending in the infantry because of a fear of an RPG destroying a tank, which used to be the way things were done. Talk about backward ass thinking. This is pretty fucking amazing. It is basically like the Phalanx system on US ships, only in a much smaller form.

I imagine that it would be similar to my experience when I was trying to get my corporate travel department to find me a hotel room in Plano, TX. The lady on the end of the line said "I am going to need a city name. I can't book you a room based on a destination of plain ol' Texas."

This story is so full of WTF(?!) questions that I honestly do not know where to begin. If you submitted this as a TV or movie script, it would be dismissed as being too far outside the realm of believability.

I don't believe that a lack of drivers is what is stopping terrorists from deploying car bombs in the US. If a terrorist is able to get in to the country, secure necessary materials, and build a bomb, then they are almost certainly dedicated enough to their cause to then drive the vehicle to the target and detonate…

Opposite of a grammar Nazi - a grammar Moronzi.

"ESC is a must. This feature, which helps a driver maintain control of the vehicle on curves and slippery roads, reduces risk on a level comparable to safety belts."
