Oh man, Samsung's so going to be like, "Did we finally convert WhaleCatTheSeventh? What? No!? What must we do!? WHAT MORE MUST WE DO???"

THERAPY!

Thanks, but that's a shame. I love my Kindle, reading on a tablet gets to be hell on the eyes after a while and its light weight is awesome.

If I read this right, this covers books from Kindle to elsewhere. Is there a way to make any book available to read on my Kindle (not fire, the older Kindle 2)

Dear Buchanan Partnership, Don't tell me your new kiosk was designed to look like a flower at the microscopic level...show me how it was designed to look like a flower at the microscopic level. Otherwise, people think you're full of shit. Read more

NASA's chief photographer, Bill Ingalls, got up early yesterday to capture this stunning sunrise scene at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. You can see the empty Soyuz launch pad with its support booms and trusses wide open, shortly before the Soyuz…

Really wish you'd labelled each pic instead of making me dig through text trying to match things up. Even now I'm not sure about several of them. Would really like to see some of those spots. Read more

A whole new understanding of St. Augustine, and I will never be able to think of that city in Florida without thinking of musical farting. Given that my step mother lives there, this would be a much happier thought for me.

How many people are going to take the time to use a VPN? Geographic pricing is still probably the best way.

He got a year? What a joke. Please tell me he was fined EVERYTHING HE OWNS.

OR we like the good stuff they do and don't like the bad stuff they do, because companies are capable of doing both good and bad and dumb and smart things?

Deathstar Ice Cube Mold

I don't think she's ever had a good season. If she wasn't a good looking woman who appears in the most random commercials then she would be out of a job.

That thing will come, but it won't be a smartphone. The point is you can't really build a better smartphone. It's all incremental changes and minor upgrades from here on out. What you can do is build something better than a smartphone. Maybe that thing will be Glass (et al). Frankly, I'm holding out for an implantable… Read more
