I came here to say the same thing. TSMC is the world’s biggest chip foundry, and most electronics products sold are not from Apple.

I suspect Apple is called out as Gizmodo presumes (or maybe has data) that will lead to the most clicks.

The Mayan’s didn’t really have one of the world’s first written languages. The Mayan script appeared around 300BC, 2800 years later than the earliest writing systems.

They did have one of the first writing systems in the Americas though, if you discount the claims made about the Olmec Cascajal Block (probably a good…

In the UK we use trees. I’m not sure how effective they are compared to walls, but they certainly look a lot better. When I moved to SoCal I found the freeways so depressing.

The use of concrete in the US is a big problem for noise. The reason for its widespread use is lobbying by the cement industry leading up to the…

Looks like the script was written by a computer algorithm.

I don’t understand your reaction. What did you expect early motorized buses to look like?

“1) let them be”

My earliest memory is of a spider that lived outside my window. It had an orange body and green legs. I watched her build a nest all summer. Then one day there was a big egg in it. The egg hatched and 100 baby spiders came out... and they ate her.

Conventional door mirrors create drag that reduce gas mileage by 3-7%.

He’s called “The Doctor”, not “Doctor Who”!

They’ll have to fly in Bill Cosby to help with that.

I don’t interpret this as Trump being dishonest (for once). I interpret it as showing Trump as a fool who got played.

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit.

I got 0. Not surprising really. I’ve worked in in imaging (CMOS image sensors, and camera development) for 20 years. My eyes are highly trained.

This was one of the worst articles I’ve ever read on the internet. It started off okay, but half way through reading it, my 3 year old daughter woke up and came out of the bedroom, and my four month-old started crying.

I’m pretty certain the answer will be 42.

The broad audience appeal of GoT was largely down to its political tension, and the nudity. The fantasy backdrop was just there as a setting for the politics.

Personally, I prefer it when myths retain uncertainly between what really happened, and what are the stories that people made up over generations. It’s creates depth.

Making it more saturated when he enter the wood would have been pretty cliched. Eighty years have passed since Dorothy went from monochrome Kansas to Technicolor Oz, and the trope has been used again and again.

The original Pooh tales were not from Disney. There were from English author A. A. Milne, who published them on a cellulose-based storage medium known as books.

Silflay, with an ‘i’ after the ‘s’.
