Great write-up, thanks! I saw this feature recently in Maps and didn’t know about the lists, which are awesome. 

I’m right there with ya, brother.

We also called it a murse back then.

A transparent tank for photos and videos after they get dropped in, hopefully.

Agreed!

Oh, how cute you are. Ever been pulled over for a speeding ticket or driving stupidly? My guess is you’re more careful after it happens.

Don’t they kill LOTS of birds, including protected ones? That can’t be good.

Yes. Once, maaaybe twice at most. Punishment was not desired, so we behaved after that.

Most of us weren’t because we actually got - GASP! - punished for bad behavior in public. Guess you didn’t.

They actually combined those two model kits for a scene in the 80s movie Zapped!, when Scott Baio uses his telekinetic powers to fly it around his room until the dog chomps down on it. I can’t believe I just wrote that sentence and remember that...

Still laughing all these years later at that episode, haha. It will randomly pop up in my brain on occasion, as well. Is that bad?

This edition was great, thanks! Really enjoyed his answers and he went more in-depth than what we usually get, the “secret” company they set up to test the updated platform is a terrific idea as well.

Lighten up, Francis.

This is truly awesome tech, thanks for the write-up! Just turned 50 and remember the Seiko watch television back in the day, this is even better. The projector resolution is insane for something so small.

I’m about the same age, what a time to grow up! Those visions of the future were inspiring at the time and I couldn’t wait to grow up and see it unfold. Unfortunately...

Yeah! He might even weaponize the IRS and EPA to go after his enemies, and that would totally suck! Whooops, Obama did that. Derp.

Indeed. I remember a guy stopping by my grandparents’ house to change out the vacuum tubes, apparently there was job market for that back then. Their neighbor’s TV had a circular screen, which was pretty wild even back then.

Great find, thanks! Definitely a rabbit hole of interesting stories, already found a couple that are dark as you mentioned.

LOL

Just like io9 these days.
