@bdinger: Make sure you were a man-thong too. Maybe make the agents think twice about who they give a full pat-down...

@Chernobyl: Dude, they're code names to make referencing them easier. It's easy to fuck up a decimal, not so easy to fuck up a long-ass name. It has nothing to do with marketing or being "cute". It's for easy internal use that ends up spilling to the public sector.

@AreWeThereYeti: You're right. Logically, we need to send these probes to do the grunt work of data collection and analysis, saving the cost of human lives. Some shit goes wrong, that a fucking person that dies, not a hunk of metal. When we actually have the resources and expertise to send a fleet of humans in…

@The-Overmind: c) Hipsters

@Dalton63841: Yeah, his friend was walking funny for months after that heist.

@SkippyTheMarine: You know, despite all your rage, you are still just a rat in a cage.

@Ronaldo: YOUR OPINION IS DESTROYING THE EARTH!

Only two words can possible sum up this video:

@Hello Mister Walrus: Yes, you're completely right which is why I acknowledged that in my post. I'm just going by Non-Engineer's assumption that a majority of Americans must support the war because the decision was made by elected officials who need a majority to be in office and, thus, make decisions. (Did that…

@Non-Engineer: Actually, it's a republic, not a democracy. That means that elected officials (who, most of the time, do not receive majority support, just the most votes) decide who goes to war (in theory). The war in Iraq was started, however, by our President at the time, not an act of Congress (which, legally, is…

@It's Meme Mario: Because when you cheat, the terrorists win.

@capitalsown: God, I want to agree with you so badly but my TI-89 was the absolute best investment I made for EE. It makes my life so much easier.

I always liked the Laptop Hunters one because it was short enough where it had your attention, made a clear point and you knew what it was selling. Not to mention that it is true- Apple laptops do, generally, cost more than Windows based laptops.

@Lu10ntDn: No, sadly. Most of the energy is lost to heat and all the actual electricity isn't enough to justify the equipment. Not to mention all the lightning hitting the world in one year wouldn't match up to the output of any type of power plant.

From a business standpoint, it makes sense. You bring a well-known and well-loved phone to a massive network while forcing said network to spend less money on your competition (in order to properly promote the iPhone on Verizon). I don't know if you'll get as big of numbers as one would expect because people really…

@Caleb Goessling: It's a phone... who the hell cares?

This is going to really confuse historians 5 million years from now

@tomsomething: Man some peoples reactance to these puns are funny. Though I am impressed at Gizmodo's permittivity of this thread!

@RenRen: Nah, Lithium Ion batteries in Laptops most like. Big enough to create a nice makeshift-bomb.

@gaius83: Agreed, sir. Now there are environmentalists that are a lot less...hostile, but many fit the description you just laid out.
