David Tennant is a Jedi Ollivander?

It's not magic at all. Quite the opposite. Vinyl sounds better because it's more simple. It's a pure analog. Sound is made of vibrations in the air. Vinyl recreates those exact vibrations, which are picked up by a needle and interpreted into sound.

The reason there are vinyl purists is that there is no compression. If you have a well cared-for record and a decent turntable with a good needle, vinyl delivers the absolute most pure sound available from any format.

It was actually a bit of a joke.

What's an ElfQuest movie have to do with the fetish video up top?

I am also quite curious about this.

I'll volunteer to be #18.

Yeah, Abraham Lincoln and FDR are totally the WORST! Corrupt criminals who were evil to the core and achieved nothing good for this country.

So... you're saying we should vote Romney?

The article is about Jo Rowling loving her MacBook. The headline is formatted as "Person: Quote from Person"

It's a tech blog, dude. If someone like Jo Rowling says, "OMG, I love this gadget so much, it has allowed me to do the thing for which I am we'll known with greater ease!"

Bans went out the window with the new commenting system, as far as I know. It's what they said in the post where they introduced the new comments.

Wow, so... I guess it's "Christian" to call someone retarded because you don't agree with their views?

We did away with banning, why..?

I agree. While I will argue til I'm blue in the face with anyone who blames Stalin or Mao's (or Hitler's) crimes on Atheism, I will not blame any of those atrocities on religion, either. It is important, I think, to point out that Hitler was undoubtedly a Christian, but his actions were not done in the name of…

The state's policy of enforced atheism was the result of an oppressive regime wanting their people to hold nothing in higher regard than the state. If the state is the most important and revered thing in the lives of the proletariat, then the leaders of the state BECOME God.

I'm afraid the content creation vs consumption argument holds no water.

Yeah, I forgot... The addresses were switched, that one went to Dent.

It's not like Batman using Apple Maps would have EXTRA killed her.
