This works in Kerbal Space Program because the planets are tiny relative to what their mass really ought to be, so, climbing the tallest hill on the planet gets you significantly closer to orbit. Unfortunately, in the real world, orbital altitude is much higher, and you don’t get much savings from launching from a…

I’m going to blow your mind and tell you that my friend the Google developer has no college degree at all. Google can hire whoever the fuck they want. They are not and do not have to be all from MIT or CalTech.

Even before the Trumpian Era, the State of the Union had degenerated into totally hokey scripted political theater that makes WWE look dignified. The Constitution sort of requires that we continue to have it, but the Constitution says nothing about citizens being required to watch or listen over any medium whatsoever.…

Surely I can’t be the first one to point out that the State of the Union is mandatory, per Article II, Section 3 of the United States Constitution. “[The President] shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union...” So this little prendre chaude of yours is going to require a…

This is hilarious because last month I realized that I didn’t have to go through this anymore and I could just buy a mid-range gaming-ready PC. It wasn’t even appreciably more expensive than the sum of its parts. And I plugged it in and turned it on and started using it and it worked and if it does break I get to send…

So this is it, yes? This is getting old? When the world seems to have permanently and irrevocably lost its mind, and every day only brings fresh permutations of things that make no sense?

Fetch me my cane, and my belt-onion, and then begone off my lawn, you whippersnappers. Tentacle not-rape Kickfunding mumble grumble…

Um, that is literally a clear plexiglass box. I’m pretty sure you can do this yourself if you feel like with stuff from Fry’s.

Just for the record I love you and your work.

I couldn’t write that review because I’ve actually seen several seasons worth of Sex and the City. (It was OK, but Girls was better.) I’m really not Comic Book Guy and I don’t think nerd culture is any sort of hill to die on, but this was a cheap and lazy take.

I like Ana and Jezebel both, but yes, they do do exactly this.

Y’all already published the “Tee hee! I’ve never heard of Star Wars!” article when the last one came out.

This shit? This shit right here? This is why I don’t play video games anymore. Pouring endless hours and endless stress into my job/career is bad enough, but at least I get paid for doing that. Do it all over for free during my so-called “leisure time”? No. No thank you.

Cockroaches do not use units of measure.

He really is all about the projection, all of the time, isn’t he?

Don’t worry: Jason wasn’t ever going to actually vote.

Whatever you do, stay off my Facebook feed. You might die. (I might die.)

We’re hyperventilating this time around for a good reason. Whereas John McCain or Mitt Romney would have made shitty Presidents, we’re all pretty sure that the country and the planet would have still been there eight years later, nevertheless. No one is at all certain of this when it comes to President Trump, which is…

No one has done more to rehabilitate Hillary Clinton and DWS in my eyes than the Bernie Bros.

OMFG these people have no idea how politics works
