I feel like "Wierdest Hybrids" was the wrong title for this article... Most of these things were useful in their day.

Currently addicted to Clash of Clans for iOS.

I'm so confused by Giz right now. First pro-iPad mini, anti-Surface, now anti-iPad mini... Will the Giz staff be switching to all Microsoft products in the next year..?

I'm so surprised that gizmodo actually gave windows 8 an ok review. Do they know that it's not an apple product?

Our school's firewall blocks P2P traffic, but with a VPN, this can be avoided.

Or switch to micro-usb like every other phone manufacturer has...

Thanks to this MacBook, an elephant at the San Francisco zoo had to get dental surgery. It was the first tooth transplant of its kind. The elephant is expected to make a full recovery, but this serves as a warning to Apple users not to take pictures of large animals - or anything else - with their iPads or iSight…

Many people live without a stomach - that's what gastric bypass surgery is...

I use pi as a test to see if I am safe to drive. If I can do 100 digits without stumbling, then it's fine. So, I'm probably buying this.

Oh. I guess that's what I get for never having a kindle.

I wonder if it's possible to get inappropriate ads. I feel like it could be embarrassing to hand your kindle fire to your mom or friend with an add for viagra or something like that.

They definitely do.

The whole point of pushing it halfway is to be ready for an action shot. It may not be necessary on newer cameras, but on older ones it makes the difference between getting the shot and not getting it.

You could also try DVDFab HD Decrypter. It's free and seems to make ISO's pretty well.

It's the same reason iOS 6 isn't coming to the original iPad, but it's coming to the 3GS... $$$$$

"There's no way to calibrate THE THE remote..." sorry.
