Your parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles helped feed you, clothe you, shelter you, wiped your bottom and taught you how to wipe it. Update their computer. Show them how to save photos.

The usefulness of the video is hampered by not seeing, or hearing, the car move.

IT’S PRONOUNCED TURBINE, NOT TURBAN!!!!

Isn’t there a vacuum system that allows you to put, essentially, a sticker with a valve on it onto any bag, and use a hose off of the system to suck the air out?

Use a old-school turkey fryer, the propane kind. The vessel should hold the turkey in the bag fine, and use the burner on a low setting as a booster for the sous vide.

get a few large whiskey stones, heat them up in an oven, then lower them as needed into the water.

Wow, only 9,000 mA/h in a $100 charger? What a rip, even if it does have all of those extra charge methods.

F auto shows! I’m tired of going and seeing amazing cars, only to find they are concept cars with no hope of production, and the only cars coming out next year are new versions of the same old blah bubbles as last year.

No reason to buy wired headphones anymore? One less thing to charge, always work, better bang for the buck for sound quality, works in almost any gadget...

Big fan of Focuswriter. Sounds silly, but to me, a fun feature is the sound effects you can add to your typing. For example, when I press a key, i get the sound of a typewriter striking the paper.

Apple KBs stink. Not enough travel.

First and foremost, a keyboard WITHOUT THE NUMERIC KEYPAD AND WITH FULL TRAVEL. Like the older Thinkpads and the current 13 and 15" Alienwares have. Full travel suits my typing and matches my desktop KB, and the numeric keypad shifts all of the keys and the touchpad to the left, off center of the screen and not

Interesting theory. But the Pixels still suck. :)

The messaging app that comes with the phone. Don’t need more.

It’s.... it’s like you reached into my heart, my mind, and my soul, and read them all.

Looks nice, but I’ll wait and buy it off the original owner for half when their kid needs college money/a new car/a new kidney/bail money. :)

People who want self driving cars don’t drive cars worth driving.

So... no more annoying Would you like to dial with Google Voice or Phone Number prompts when calling out? Just use the normal dialer for the phone, and Hangouts for Voice? Two separate apps?

I would trade water resistance for removable battery, because one of the big reasons for wanting a removable battery is to take it out if the phone gets wet. (The other is to pull it if the phone is locked, which happens far less frequently these days.)

Would love to see a test of otherwise identical cars with 4, 6, 8, and even 12 cylinder engines, all the same displacement and aspiration, for power, mileage, and usability.
