You almost had me with the strike through text. I thought you really believed the end was near there for a second.

Yes, I think it is hard to believe. I think the movie "Winter's Bone" did a good job of showing the initial recruitment process for the military. Mainly because they had a real recruiter, and Iraqi veteran, in the role and instead of concrete lines they told him to answer the questions like he would in real life.

I know the birds were probably going after the fish that were chased to the surface...but I like to pretend that they are trying to attack the whale.

I found the obviously-fake-rubber-dogs-getting-their-heads-bashed-together scene in "True Lies" funny. Am I a bad person?

I agree with Mark Thomas' comment (which I can't reply to because of the stupid new reply system), shift your perspective. Instead of seeing something moving down the hallway, look at it as something (small) crawling up the lens.

Yeah...I hate to admit that I like Tom Cruise's acting (especially Collateral) since he's such a whack job otherwise.

High five!

How much was that really pricey mech game with the custom controllers?

first world problem: a blog about gadgetry decadence post something about gadgetry decadence.

Really...never realized? If you're into the douchey "first world" problem thing, then the words "gadget enthusiast" should be your first clue that it's decadent. Look at your life and tell me you have absolutely nothing wasteful in it.

Agree with Faux Bravo...while post apocalyptic waste lands are a dime a dozen, what isn't these days? I haven't played Rage, but maybe they do something the others haven't. To write it off as derivative seems a bit harsh, as you would have to write off almost every game made.

Sgt. Fred Colon had it right all along.

I'm not normally moved by tributes, but for some reason XKCD hit it for me today.

?How do they work?

And in Klingon 'siri' means "Please enjoy the restful scent of the patchouli I have brought you as I honorably disembowel you with my bat'leth." Loose translation.

This just in - "Gizmodo was hacked and the hacker put up an article about other sites being hacked, and then Jesus schooled us all. It's all very meta, you noobs wouldn't understand."

I think I'm more calling bullshit on the title. Maybe it should have been "How to upgrade your Win7 Tablet" or "Holy Crap, Guys, Did You Know That You Can Totally Upgrade Windows!?!?". I mean...by this article it would seem like I just built an iPad with off the shelf parts. All I had to do was buy an iPad and then…

So...basically, buy a Windows tablet and upgrade it? Next up...how to build a gaming rig with off the shelf parts. Buy one that's already made, and install games.
