Well it turns out that the availability of Google Fiber in Austin is pretty limited, and nowhere outside of the city itself. With the high rent prices we saw in Austin city, that pushed us out into the suburbs and—surprise surprise!—into the arms of TWC.

We had massive periodic cicada brood that emerged right when I graduated from high school in 2004. The fact that they were tons of them flying around inside the university basketball arena during the graduation ceremony was hilarious enough (constant screams)- the fact that no one was able to get a decent picture as a…

I know it’s not considered to be a great movie by any means (except the soundtrack), but I have to say my vote goes for Tron:Legacy.

Ten years? That has to be some kind of world record, because wow...

One upside to the increased cost of driverless cars- insurance rates would drop like CRAZY.

Beautiful work, thanks for sharing it (even if it’s been around for a while!).

The ability to tweak the software that the phone is built on is what keeps me with Android. I’m too much of a tinkerer so having a phone that locks me out and treats me like I’m stupid drives me bonkers.

Beautiful video, AND I’m glad that they used music from the Oblivion soundtrack. Very underrated soundtrack, one of my favorites!

I actually have samurai ancestry so I’ve done some research on this, and this actually is not true. Although yes, there is a great emphasis on control of your weapon and not removing it from its tsuba (scabbard) unless you’re actually planning to use it (hence why they would often just pull it out a few inches to show…

Well, considering how much people are on their phones, computers, tablets, etc already when they’re around other people (especially at home with their families), I’d say we already have “virtual families”, even though my idea of what that means differs from the one presented in the article—interacting through digital…

I saw the headline image and honestly thought “WTF? Hillary Clinton showed up at ComicCon and everyone was happy?”

This would’ve been way funnier if they had kept it as serious as possible. And had actors that were super old, kinda like how the interviews they have for Band of Brothers and The Pacific were of very old vets.

The only person who came to mind when I read the line “I don’t yet know exactly who that high-profile customer is...” was Kanye West.

“...much like the SpaceLab modules that flew on NASA’s shuttles “

The top right diamond (“Is your computer running Vista or XP?”) is completely unnecessary. This question was already answered in the first tile of the graph.

Biggest Russian flag in the world, you say?

My heart swells like the waves of the ocean with gratitude towards you for posting this glorious video.

This is the kind of reading material that Congressional representatives should have on their required reading list. Then again, it probably wouldn’t matter because without some sort of personal benefit from the military procurement process, they’d all starve to death.

Someone referenced it in a different comment and I’m glad you posted it because I had never seen it before.

An interesting note is that while the Buran design is in many ways a ripoff of the US orbiter design, it was actually capable of carrying MORE payload weight into space.
