Great idea. So when, exactly, are they going to do any of that? So far we've got DDOS attacks on gaming networks, theft of credit card and user information, and defacement of harmless websites. Wow, so revolutionary.

Lemme give you a hint - a five year old with a chainsaw is going to produce splinters and severed fingers, not cut wood.

Heartclick for that last line. That's exactly what they're doing - getting off on the sound of their own name, and the chaos being perpetrated in that name.

Yes. The 5.1v output is odd, but not bad - the spec calls for a max of 5.25v so 5.1v is still perfectly save for any USB device.

I think Android AV isn't quite necessary at this stage, but there have been a few malware apps out there. Probably starting to hit the point where it isn't totally paranoid to run it, and we may soon hit a point where it is important - so if you have the RAM and CPU to spare, jump in while you're thinking about it. My

I don't know what I'm going to do when I move out of the boonies. Comcast is treating me well up here now, giving me 50% more speed than I pay for typically, and being fairly good to deal with. If I have issues I walk down the block to the office and talk to one of the little old ladies about my bill, no call center

And now I've gotten two different answers. Yours makes sense though - I can see that being addicting.

OK, so the food is more than I expected, but the self loathing.. Still an overdone literary device then, right?

I don't get the near self-loathing that Gizmodo authors describe their "internet food ordering" habits with. Maybe I'm missing something. Around here the only choice I've got for "internet food" is placing an order at pizzahut.com. I assume they're talking about more of the same, just more restaurant options, seeing

Or even utilize existing tools like Chrome to Phone and QR Codes? I'm addicted to QR - right click a link, page, etc and I can generate a QR, snap it on my phone, there we go. Wouldn't take much to program something that included user submitted form data in the QR, if there was something not captured in the URL.

It's marketing-speak, but they state that their process has a smaller carbon footprint than plastic production from raw material.

Citation? And elaboration - "consuming more energy than it puts out" would be a bad thing for a power plant, for instance, but is not applicable in the production of goods where you put in material and energy, and get out processed material. I assume you're trying to say that recycling goods consumes more energy than

The point was, you should read other comments and the source site — he wasn't doing well financially and had a deadline to close up, regardless of his inventory level. Having his entire stock bought out meant he wasn't left with any unsold inventory going to loss, and netted him a decent final profit.

Reading is a difficult, but useful challenge, if you wish to comment intelligently on the articles.

MX1000 was my top choice, and I ran two - one at work and one at home, until getting a R.A.T. 7 for home. Still like parts of the MX1000 better than the R.A.T. but the pinky rest is what sold me - couldn't stand dragging my pinky around with the MX1000 - or worst yet, dragging half my hand around with a regular mouse.

Not buying the smartphone angle, mostly because it seems it'd be incredibly tacky and flop. But that's just me. My vote is on either a generic only community (forums, blogging, etc) or a web based MMORPG.

I think you're overlooking some perfectly legitimate reasons for using a 2nd email app.

Fair point about the bears. Lets say it's like trying to steal Pooh's honey. Like you said, all Disney cute.. until he catches you stealing his precious, and the claws come out. I'm quite looking forward to seeing the outcome of this.

The zombies (typically) check in at a URL or IRC channel somewhere, so there is no one person sending a flood of commands out - instead you get someone quietly placing an order in an obscure location, and all the zombies periodically checking in. Easier to go unnoticed.

Thermochromic sheeting — It's mood-ring material. The "glows" remark is just exaggerated wording.
