You guys are assholes for promoting this. It is never appropriate to suggest people should buy hacking devices to use against others that they dislike. That’s fucked up.

Rarely has such a pedantic, unnecessary reply been so thoroughly entertaining.

I know pointing out spelling/editing issues on Giz is a bit gauche at this point since it’s more or less a given that they’re going to be present, but the former English teacher side of me won’t be satisfied until I point out that “everyday” is only a compound word when it’s being used as an adjective, i.e. “an…

The most “problematic” thing about this whole scenario, is you calling out Nye as a sellout. You go to great lengths to explain how coke has a huge problem with waste, yet somehow insinuate it’s Bill Nye’s fault for making a commercial. Bill Nye has done more in his 66 years on this planet to educate children and…

And no gutters.  This is why we have downspouts people.

Ironically, according to that photograph, the building, acting as a barrier against runoff, is what is making the soil erode away.

This form of energy is certainly cleaner than the alternatives, but without adequate planning and protections, the potential for disaster is enormous.

I find it curious that SpaceX allowed the launch. The CME that caused the geomagnetic storm was seen on Feb 6 and was predicted to hit our atmosphere..well.. when it did. Odd that a company that will scrub a launch because of unfavorable conditions down-range would either miss or ignore this type of event.

That guy is HUGE!!!

The perspective bridge is the only one of the challenges that not only makes perfect sense.... but could have easily been created using only 2000+ year old technology. It’s literally just sidewalk art painted on a solid beam of rock painted to look like the opposing rock face from that exact vantage point of standing…

I gotta say, I kind of care because I feel like I just learned something new. I never would have guessed that it meant anything other than destroy.

It’s times like this that I like to quote Hunter S. Thompson. he was referring to a particular individual, but I will like to us this quote for humanity as a whole...

I don’t doubt there’s some documentary evidence, but dating heiroglyphs is fraught with uncertainty. “4360 years ago,” for example, is around the late Fifth/early Sixth Dynasty...but even finding a picture of a watermelon in the pyramid of Teti (the first pharaoh of the Sixth Dynasty) still gives a +/- of almost 70…

Ever seen a skilled excavator operator pick up a raw egg with 10 or 20 tons of machine? Yeah, people can adapt pretty well to auxiliary limbs.  

Anyone can say “the science is clear” - and I could be missing something here, but I have been looking and have found no peer reviewed publications, studies, or anything else that shows any data to confirm what they announced today. There is nothing more than anecdotal findings.  Just this week we learned that 7 fully…

When I woke up this morning, I didn’t expect to go to bed knowing how to pick out far right ass holes in Chile twitter, but you learn something new every day.

Best $5 spent.

Dude, nuke plants go 18 months- 2 years between refueling. That’s not intermittent at all. Intermittent is when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing various times of the day.

Here’s our new guy, Hank (Collie/Cocker Spaniel/German Shepherd/Husky mix) bonding with our sweet 8-year-old Hannah (Great Pyrenees/German Shepherd mix). I think she likes having a little buddy.

The electric rangers are quite a bit different from their gasoline burining counterparts. Particularly the rear suspension. You’d just gain a low mileage body for $3000. Everything else would need to be replaced. Pictured is the rear undercarriage.
