100X this. Also, I suspect this question is either made up, or was sent in to troll these Lifehacker dumbasses, or is one of those “look at me, so cool, I don’t know tech!”.

Connecting any HD device (yes, all smartphones are HD devices) of any nature to a CRT monitor that does at best 320 lines of resolution in a 4:3

The picture literally says Photo:Shutterstock. Right there. Right underneath it.

“Twined”? Really?

Well what do you know, my comment got posted. I’m not gonna lie, I’m surprised that it did. Props for that.

Just to reiterate, I honestly wasn’t trying to be dickish about anything; it just seems like such an elementary topic. I can see lots of others got benefit out of it (maybe?), so that’s a plus side I guess. I

I really, truly don’t want to be “that guy”, but I just gotta speak up. I’m also gonna guess that my comment won’t be approved anyway, but here goes: is this a technology blog anymore? I mean, this is the very definition of filler content. I don’t know of a single technical colleague of mine that wouldn’t know how to

I think you are confusing a generation with a political movement. That sounds an awful lot like “conservatives”, not Gen X’ers. I promise you, there are a shit ton of us who are the literal opposite of what you just posted.

I’m going to be straight up honest about something here: there are few humans on this planet who have had such a tremendous impact on design direction and language in modern times as Ive, and we’ve all been the worse for it. Not the form portion of it, because no doubt he has beautiful designs. And not the function

Sooo... apologies if I missed it, but when will this be available for purchase?

Definitely a white guy troll, zero doubt. Source: I’m a white guy who’s sick of white guys.

100% guaranteed this is a white person fucking off. I’ll eat my white person’s get out of jail free card if I’m wrong.

Could you explain what that tunic thing is you’re wearing?

I should also like to add, apropos of nothing at all, that your hat looks stupid. It has a brim for a functional reason, and you’re wearing it wrong. It’s not meant to be bobby pinned to the top of your stupid haircut, it’s meant to keep the sun out of your eyes. Yes, I’m aware it’s a prop for you and not intended to

This was infuriating to listen to and to read. The moment you referred to this guy as “a literal nobody” is the exact moment you lost all credibility. This isn’t an analysis, or even anything approximating an “This thing or person summarized in 60 seconds”. It’s an embarrassment.

It’s also precisely the thing that

Hi James! I generally like your writing, but I’m going to pick a nit here. I know it sometimes gets tossed around, but people have got to stop referring to SciFi as “genre”.  Genre means a particular type of creative work, not a specific one. Like something in a Western genre, etc. It just drives me nuts when I see

Yes, that’s exactly what I mean. A lot of people literally sat out the election in 2016, or put up protest votes, because of all the “vetting” that was just thinly veiled “I don’t like this person because they’re not my first pick”, and the bad strokes it unfairly painted HRC and other with. This article is a perfect

Ya, these low key, side eyed commentaries on Pete are just getting old. Think about this: for whatever reason (is it an East Coast thing? I doubt it, but I’m struggling here) you’ve listed all these things that supposedly “annoy” you about Buttigieg, and most of us see these things as being admirable. Think on that

I would like to hear more about this, as a former fellow squid. We were lucky to have payphones plugged in the hangar decks during ports of call!

Goddamn that felt good hearing Cenk roar back at her like that. “No deal, new day in America!”

Love that guy.

Trust me, if Gizmodo is writing a “review” of a technology you have even a passing familiarity with, it’s shocking just how non-tech savvy they are. They didn’t mention fan noise, they wanted to compare “out of the box” image quality for $1000+ PJ’s who practically require at least a basic amount of calibration, I

If you were watching it in Chrome, you should know that it is limited to 720p, not full 1080p. Just FYI. Try using the Edge browser for this stuff. I wouldn’t recommend it for anything else though.
