Someone give this person a star.

The first time I heard my cousin say, "I'm tweetin' to my peeps" I had a hard time not rolling my eyes and blurting out, "What the #### are you talking about!?!" because I hadn't ever heard of Twitter. I just nodded, of course, and went on with my day. To this day I've never used Twitter or seen the attraction to…

I LOVE this!! To make it more techy, though, we need an automated bowl rattler.

It just holds the stick - not usable in the phone. An important caveat conveniently left out of the product's advertising.

I didn't think of that - that is funny!

I agree with all that you wrote with the exception that there are exceptions. Plenty of trademarked items have either received approval (or not) in similar situations. I am thinking of how many logos Apple sued - [www.google.com]

That is a much better way of saying what I've been trying to.

Interesting, but I think for the Transformers, it was more likely a bridge of Transformers and Optimus Prime. It would be very cool to find out that it was as you say, though!

"surely this is a desperate attempt to win some cash on Hasbro's part" Really? Why precisely did Asus decide on the name Transformer Prime? Note that Asus wasn't sued for calling the previous iteration Transformer. If McDonald's started making a burger called the McBurg Air claiming the bun was exceptionally…

Obviously the iPhone is far superior. I had a P800 and really liked it at the time. It will still turn on 5 years after the last battery recharge! My point, however, is that Symbian as an OS was doing iOS kind of things several years beforehand, and is therefore much better than "an awful, putrid piece of phone…

The Sony-Ericsson P800, P900, and P910 were on track to become what the iPhone is, but I think the line wasn't marketed properly. I was surfing the internet on a full touchscreen well before the iPhone release. Symbian wasn't difficult to use, but it had apps and if not for company and marketing decisions, I imagine…

I service iPhones and sometimes assist people in using them, but I don't have one myself, and didn't realize this - Thanks!

I did not know that - thanks!

I don't know about the other countries, but Israel and Egypt are given money (around 3B and 2B respectively) by the US in the form of a voucher for purchasing military equipment. They're the two largest recipients in the world of such funds from the US. It was all brokered in the peace treaty between Israel and…

At 1:30 how is Airplane Mode not affecting connectivity?

"Let's talk nerd first." I was waiting to see, "Now let's talk consumer" They kind of blend in and I'm still not sure the whole article wasn't for the nerds.

Yes, yes, but if you get a runny nose... and have a short... Perhaps it would be preferable to flush your nose with Louisiana tap water. [gizmodo.com]

What caused the explosion? An accident? An attack?

Yeeeaaah. I missed that. Thanks.

There's another way honey can be fatal - infants cannot consume uncooked honey until they're 1 year old - [wholesomebabyfood.momtastic.com]
