OK, fine I used a ruler and you're right, they don't match up perfectly. The top horizontal line cuts the top of the other cigarette and the bottom line sits below the other cigarette. But anyway, my described method is still a good way to see past the illusion (or turn people into newts).

Not sure if it will work but you could try installing iTunes and register for an account without your iPhone. If it allows you to do it then you can just buy the app in the App Store and wait for your phone.

Drat! Looks like my brainwashing tactics have been revealed. Time to leave the country.

People who claim to be vegan are not.

An easy way to overcome this kind of illusion is to mentally blank out the "3D" lines draw your own lines. Draw an imaginary line at the top of one cigarette perfectly horizontally. Do the same at the bottom of the cigarette. Now look at your two imaginary (parallel) lines, do they touch the top and bottom of the…

That's stupid, there's no such thing as vegan. Also, people who say leather is wrong should think about this: when a cow is slaughtered, would you rather only use the meat for food or also use everything else in the animal for other products. Use the cow skin for leather or throw it in the garbage because it's already…

Dude, it's not about how much it costs to the seller, but how much it is worth to you (ease of use, functionality, all the good stuff a smartphone should have). What you're saying is like saying you would always buy the product that's more expensive to make, even if it is inferior (IF!!, I'm not saying Android phones…

...Which side of the tablet did they look at? Front or back? Was the screen on? If it's the back then that's no excuse for the lawyer. If it's the front, especially if the screen is off then that's fucking retarded. Sure you can try to discern the widescreen vs the standard aspect ratios but I don't know if you've…

The centre of the drill bit moves in a circular motion. The weird shape is not very intuitive because we're so used to circular drills and stuff. This is very loosely similar to a rotary engine.

Progeria usually manifests at early age so it's unlikely. It is a genetic disease so it could be tested for easily. I suspect it's probably due to multiple extreme allergic reactions.

See my comment (right above yours).

Alright, I've been working all afternoon to try to make it automatically sync a local folder to the box (just like dropbox) and I've figured it out with a third party program.

meh. too lazy to search, lol.

Hahaha, I love how whenever Gizmodo tries to promote a site it ends up sending the equivalent of a DDoS attack at it instead. I'll try again tonight.

Where can I find every picture released? I plan to do some fappin' tonight, lol.

2003 Type S. I love the S2000, it's a really nice car.

$100 for a fresh battery AND an upgrade to the latest model!? Apple is nice but they still want to make money, lol.

So far benchmarks show A5 being 2x faster than A4 (not graphics). If someone could port it over to iPhone 4 then it would be around half as fast. It'd be nice, but I probably still wouldn't use it too much.

Meh, all the more chances of Siri being ported to iPhone 4. It'll be slower but at least I'd already have enough RAM to handle it.

You got it right the first time, but somehow messed up the second. "Your", not "you're". I totally agree with you, though. I remember hearing this same thing somewhere else before...just can't remember where.
