“we can’t think of too many good uses for a coffee table with an OLED screen beneath its surface”

Whaaaaaaa?
How would you not know it’s poppers the moment you cracked open the top? Like is this seriously an issue? Where does this happen?

To anyone curious about them, I recommend the Jungle Juice brand. Rush gives me a headache. 

“But the small packages they come bottled in often look more like a 5-hour Energy bottle.”

An intro paragraph describing exactly what this event is would have been useful. Sure, you can piece it together through the article, but it’s weird that this is written presupposing everyone has any idea of what this is.

Watch their video. Instead of planetary gears they did exactly what you first suggested. What look like dotted lines above each wheel are actually roller bearings. The bike essentially uses these to ‘sit’ on the wheels while the axles are free to translate vertically. Very clever and probably easier to make that…

They get more clicks on YouTube. 

Tim Cook understood Musk is just like Trump, a fragile narcissistic man child that is easy to manipulate by stroking their ego.

Those wheels are Reuleaux Triangles, one of a class of non-circular “shapes of constant width” that are the exact same diameter no matter where you measure. As such, they can roll in almost the exact same way as a circular wheel.

The reason you can’t roll a normal triangle or square is that they quickly fall into a low…

There we go, this is better than the tank tread square wheeled one (which was still cool, but not wheels). Next, dodecahedrons. 

I don’t see an unreasonable accusation being made, but to answer your question: As with everything on the site, the judgment of what qualifies as abuse would ultimately fall to me and other editors.

I’m a holdover from the original Blog days. All the stuff you are saying sounds amazing. Kind of funny how good content is the new web-whatever-we-are-now-number...basic blogs, cut the crap, you will gain a solid community. We need good writers, not ad executives running the site and it sounds like this is a step in…

Lifehacker has always been a great destination for me, and I look forward to its continued success. I’ve seen a lot of transformations of the site over the years and change is always necessary to move ahead in anything. Thanks for so many great years - can’t wait to see what’s next

While obviously we don’t know the exact specifics of what actually happened here, it was pretty telling that everyone who knew or worked with him was immediately ready to accept it as fact because of all of their experiences dealing with him and his history of behavior everywhere he went. The number of stories that…

He is a truly terrible human being. That’s it. No more thought pieces, no more “yeah but he was close with his mom when she died”, or “you don’t understand mental illness”. He is an entitled, self absorbed piece of shit.

To all the greys insisting that her *other* career is how she should be identified:

I can’t believe she’s up and back to streaming so soon. I would’ve assumed injuries like this would require at least a couple months of bed rest.

I read a few books a year, but I don’t understand why people act like reading is inherently virtuous, or makes you superior. Reading doesn’t make you smarter, it’s just processing information. Can you learn things by reading? Sure. You can also learn things by listening to educational podcasts and watching…

We have ourselves to blame for situations like this. We spent years pretending China was anything other than an authoritarian regime that brutally cracks down on dissent and commits genocide against its own people because for years it was super easy to go there and make shit tons of money. Companies from around the…

fuck Chick-fil-a in all things, but this is basically making up a reason to be angry when there are already plenty out there.

Man. I’m not defending his fetishes, let me say that right up front, but I am saying this site has a reallll bad habit of fetish shaming people.
