@Slinkytech: I don't know how Macs bootstrap themselves, but every PC I've owned has had dead simple overclock settings in BIOS. And doing it through BIOS seems safer (not that I know of, or have tried, any other method) because it knows by definition which CPU type/RAM type/FSB etc you're using, while a utility has…

@KillMeNow is making an omelet with fried eggs: Best. Idea. Ever.

@cool8man: I just imagined that line in a Verizon Droid commercial, and it's pretty cool.

When bud is legalized and different brand associations begin to form in our minds, this will be the Smirnoff Ice of marijuana.

"Mm... h-hey baby, do you have um... protection?"

@Kat@Work: Your post's closing sentence = truth. Unsurprisingly, everything went to shit after the Americans took over the US stores. The Brits hired a layer of middle managers between the store managers and them, and it was all downhill from there. With the Brits, it was their company and they wanted to see it do…

C-3PO: The odds of successfully doing that whole 8-ball are approximately—

@Kat@Work: I worked for a few years for a big British electronics chain expanding into Manhattan. 80 stores in the UK. New York was the first city in their planned nationwide chain, so all the bigwigs spent most of their time over here, mostly to see how the US market differed and get things off on the right foot.…

@thePrototype: And yet, GoDaddy has registered 50% of the domain names in the US. Number two is eNom, with 13%. God damn it.

@MorningCoffeeMeow: This product used to be marketed as "deli style" and with the tagline "It's all about the crisp!" No fat-shaming or misogyny. The direction was probably "Our market is totally homogeneous. We want our product to get noticed." Pretzel Crisps are no different than any of the dozens of other pretzels…

@bananafishtoday: I did some googling.

I swear, every day I'm one step closer to carrying around a can of spray paint and fixing every ad I see that pisses me off.

Oh shit, I loved R.L. Stine when I was a kid. I started reading him in 3rd grade, when my mom bought me a few of the Goosebumps books through the monthly Scholastic book club thing. I checked the library for more by them and was told not only were R.L. Stine's books not available, but the author was in fact banned…

@Anilisha: Oh, I don't even own a camera, but if I was rich/vain/sad enough to put my name on my custom car, I'd probably hire a photographer to follow me around or something.

@sterlingsilver36: Most cameras store pretty much everything about a picture in the file itself. It's called EXIF data. Originally, it was for pro photographers, because it tells you literally everything: zoom, aperture width, focal length, depth of field, etc. Also all the stuff above. Ice-T took the pic around 2AM…

@dfc849: Yep. Way better than Safari.

@terabera: Seriously, when he brags about his "handmade" car like that, but he's got a $180 point-and-shoot and his Mac runs Leopard... priorities, man! I thought you were rich!

Ice-T also owns a Canon PowerShot SD1400 IS and an Apple computer running OS X 10.5.8. He took this picture 2 days 18 hours ago, and cropped it 8 hours ago it from 14MP to 5.8MP using Quicktime 7.6.6.

@bananafishtoday: oh my god it stretched it to be huge how do i delete it :( Accident, I swear.

I'm really sick of the pro-Verizon bias here on Giz. What about the Nextel iPhone?
