She should have waited until she had tenure to pull this stunt. Then she'd at least still have a job.

I wonder... would it be possible to upload a mp4 and have it convert to a gifv?

A friend of mine says his job never carries over vacation time or pays out (to encourage you to use it) and will actually fire you if you don't take at least one full week off every year. I said they were almost certainly bluffing with that one week thing, but he says he knows of one person who actually was fired for…

Wow. I'm so out of touch with the XB One that I didn't even know it wasn't backwards compatible until I read this. I'd just been assuming it'd play 360 games.

Well, it's 2:15 and no sales. At this point, I've just accepted there isn't going to be a Summer sale this year.

Wait a minute. I thought there were no more MLB2k games after last year? I'm confused.

The lack of Bavarian Cream on this list is disturbing. I'm not saying where it should go, but it should be there.

The answer seems apparent to me: Contact the IRS and ask them. If they tell you to cash it, you're in the clear. There's no morality question if they tell you to keep it. Most likely, they'll tell you to destroy the check.

See, when I think of board games, I think of Monopoly. Or maybe Yahtzee. Or, perhaps, Life. My mind is now blown and I must acquire all of these. Also, force people to play them with me if necessary.

I've had the same PS2 for the past decade. Holy crap. I bought mine in mid 2002 and it still works. I'm gonna miss new PS2s.

I play a ton of Football Manager as well (110 hours in two weeks when I was unemployed a few years ago. Yikes.) and the original CK appealed to me for sort of the same reason. Haven't played CK2 much, but the FM mindset seems to translate well to CK.

I may need to give CK2 another shot. I absolutely _loved_ CK1. (And even bought other Paradox games to continue my empire through save game importing, though it was a bit of a shock to be in control of the country rather than the dynasty when I imported into Europa Universalis.) I tried CK2 shortly after it came out…

In terms of Doctor Who, I've heard all sorts of interesting rumors. A friend of mine says it's "definite" every living actor to play the Doctor is going to be back for the 50th anniversary. (Which means everyone from Tom Baker on.) I didn't bother to ask him where he heard it, because it seems so incredibly unlikely I…

Was Teapot really 167 megatons? If so, that's a gigantically huge bomb.

Though I've never done it, I always thought the point of the private booth in a porn was so you could jerk off. That's the only reason it's there. Or so I thought. Maybe not?

This seems a little odd for Gizmodo, but I can dig it, I guess.

Hmm.. and they can call it Identity Crisis! ... oh wait, maybe not...

None of the movies are on 616. The only thing set in 616 is the comics (most the time.) Any other media is always (no exceptions, as far as I'm aware) set on an alternate Earth. Marvel actually maintains a list. You see some weird stuff on that list. Google-Fu is failing me right now and I can't find the list, but I'm…

Yes, yes, yes. I love that idea. Get it out of the way in 30-45 seconds or so, then get on with the real plot.

Oh, good. Now I can upgrade to 6. Been sticking with the last version of 5 because I refuse to use an iPhone without Google Maps. Glad to hear it's out.
