“Dee-os mee-oh,” said Latin Superman, sounding suspiciously like a white guy who couldn’t conjugate ver if you put a Kryptonite gun to his head.

Howdy, Lifehacker team. Real quick: do you use a smartwatch, and if you do, what's the #1 reason you keep wearing it?

It is inevitable.

Admit it, Eric: you only took this assignment so you could show off your Star-Lord mask.

Ah, I've been misinformed then. I thought that legal open-carry states were in the minority.

While all of the information above is accurate, it's basically only useful for spotting people who are either uncomfortable with a weapon or who are carrying it improperly. Most quality holsters that are designed to be concealed are very difficult to spot, and the people using them are used to carrying, and won't

I can confirm that Virgin America is fantastic. It's a shame they only fly to and from the West Coast, or I'd use them everywhere. Their prices are pretty competitive (sometimes even lower than the usual suspects) with cheap upgrades to first class.

I got the opportunity to try this router, and eventually settled on the cheaper ($100) RT-N65U. Adam's right, the hardware and software features on these ASUS routers are mind-boggling. I got this one specifically because it can borrow a wireless broadband connection from a USB device like a smartphone or hotspot and

The truth is that anything you can make a living at is a "real job," no matter how strange or off-putting it is. My real job is writing about phones and video games on the Internet all day.

I've had it explained to me that wireless just doesn't make any sense and would negate some of the advantages (something about the PS/2-USB interface) but my desk is massive, my typing area is about 5 feet away from

I know this won't help you, Whitson, but the major problem with the Galaxy Nexus battery life is in the hardware, especially if you're using a Verizon model. The combination of a TI processor and and the Galaxy Nexus LTE radio in particular seems to be very draining.

Good grief, LH crew - didn't you have enough Windows posts today? #yukyukyuk

Clio Wheatley sat at her terminal in the Records Department, rubbing her hands to keep out the ever-advancing chill. She had another four hours to go on her shift before David would relieve her, though she wasn’t necessarily looking forward to it: that meant trying to get to the MARTA station across sub-zero Atlanta,

For DC fans, check out this semi-official SuperFriends crossover commercial that Cartoon Network made years ago:

"It puts me in mind," said Leonard [da Quirm], "of those nautical stories about giant turtles that sleep on the surface, thus causing sailors to think they are an island. Of course, you don't get giant turtles that small." -Jingo, by Terry Pratchett

Call Robo-Rooter when you flush your towel,

The LH Twitter post for this article started , "There's no iTunes for Android..." and I couldn't help but think, "Thank God!" Loading up files with a basic file explorer is one of my favorite Android features.

"Hercules was not a big hit for Disney, nor did it particularly deserve to be."

Hasn't Bender tried playing God before?

Considering Jobs' and Apple's control issues, this seems oddly appropriate.
