Just a reminder, in case you missed it in the text of the article, InSight lands in a week!

They better lock down the movie rights. There’s a breakout movie with an esports theme here, mighty ducks style, if they play it right. Might as well use the drama. 

I honestly don’t know, DarkwingChuck mentioned a “rudimentary” co-op that looks like doesn’t need a second switch, but that is the first I’ve heard of it. All other multiplayer details I’ve heard required a second switch. Hope you and your kids have fun regardless.

Someone else can confirm, but if the game is a like all the others it is one player. Unless you have two switches so they can battle together (which I’m told is a feature) they’re going to need to take turns with any controller, pokeball or joy-con, that is currently in charge of the action.

Just a reminder, while not a rover, InSight will be landing in less than two weeks! https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/insight/main/index.html

I wouldn’t say you’re no longer a good friend. You still want to be around them and that counts and the fact you want to invite them over is wonderful. I personally try to make an effort to see my friends with kids and try to accommodate them especially when they first had them. I promise you that good friend wouldn’t…

Hello fellow hermit! I’m almost one at this point given friends with kids and odd employment schedules.

As someone who often plans things for the group, sometimes reluctantly, the frustration of the no-alternative veto is familiar. Accommodating my friends with kids or those with dietary restrictions or odd employment schedules takes some work so I am one who would greatly appreciate alternative ideas. 

HA! I showed my co-worker once and she had the same reaction! We ended up leaving 3 episodes running in the background at work!

Although Netflix was wonderful at getting people interested in the Great British Baking Show (*cough* Bake-Off), I highly recommend, if you can, to support your local PBS station with a membership and getting access to PBS Passport.

I think you saved me a buy! The current one-blade I have does a great job putting an edge to my side burns. Guess I’ll pass on this one.

Although it would bring standardized test flashbacks on, I really hope some day all of knija, especially giz and io9, have a reading comprehension tests on the content of the article that allows participation in the comments section.

I got the single arm one a while back and it lives up to what you expect it to do. I highly recommend the premium for a little extra cost though simply because there are days when I expect too much and really would prefer it if I could get some more vertical movement.

Not always, preventive care has always been a tough sell to policy makers. In the years where money is available there are always other more, for lack of a better word, “glamorous” priorities for which credit can be better given or publicized. In years where funding stinks, say the last recession, they can just say…

Just a reminder the PBS documentary “The Farthest: Voyager in Space” is still on netflix. You can see some info here http://www.pbs.org/the-farthest/home/ along with a real time calculator on mission elapse, distance, speed. Awesome documentary that goes step by step, year by year, of each discovery while voyager was…

Off topic, but anybody else scroll down, glanced at the pic and got excited by a new show us your nerd ep? Oh well, maybe next time. :)

Thank you for this recommendation I haven’t heard of this company and am now researching it. It might be perfect for a small scale lesson/experiment both for myself and possibly with my niece I’ve been wanting to do.

I remember seeing an electric porsche 356 a long time ago before there were youtube vids and blogs about them thinking “you can do that?!” I think it was a replica kit, but still, so cool!

That’s the one I got too. I was thinking Illuminati level secret society of breeders or something.

My past experience being support in clinical research working with some elderly male populations spooked the crap out of me in terms of the health problems they face eating diets described in this. The colon cancer one was very evident if they were lucky as...
