It all seemed a bit of a missed opportunity I thought, once you knew zoidberg had everything but the brain,it was just a matter of time before frankenstein hermes was made, so it got a bit tedious waiting for that to happen, and then I at least thought they might go the interesting route of having the frankenstein…

as I opened the link to this article, i thought, "finally, an interesting looking article thats more than just a press release or a link to something that's already appeared on Reddit or somewhere else" then i get here to find that its actually a WSJ article, this has happened alot with the articles from "Wired" on…

i think I must be missing something, when he compares it to rock paper siscors (R-P-S), if you were to play a 3 way game in R-P-S then you could end up with everyone playing a different hand and each person beating one, and loosing to another, this CAN'T happen with dice, if one person rolls a 3, another a 4, and the…

I have to say, this type of post to me highlights the benefit of the old commenting system, previously I could scroll down the page and see what everyone used as a start page, seeing if any names kept cropping up, at which point i may look into it, i found out about f.lux and a whole host of other interesting things…

if you had an account, you could set the "show all" to be the default setting in your profile, which i had done, it made looking through the comments nice and easy, i usually looked for individual comments more than replies, but when i did see a thread that looked interesting (usually with a "see 43 replies") you…

Hi Adam, I've seen this update come through on the other gawker sites, and when i saw it wasn't on lifehacker i thought that was an editorial decision. as compared to most other gawker sites, i spend alot more time in the comments section on this site, and love scrolling down to see all the different comments (often…

yeah but he's also really anti skeuomorphism, so I can't see the commenters approving of him writing about that, unless he was being negative perhaps

oh the first 2-3 episodes of this show are NOTHING like what it becomes, the first episodes are vey plain and booring, mostly just setting out the characters, if you can get past those though, its truly awesome

179 calories for sex? not bad for 5 minutes work!

if the next film is a tie in between the hangover and iron man when they all meet up with tony stark and get drunk, I think I would enjoy watching that

Could that not be because the surgeons worked better with classical music playing and so the patient was likely to recover faster anyway? this could be tested by doing the same test on patients under a general anesthetic, if the effects are the same when the patient is unconscious, it would probably be the surgeon who…

I have to say I'm a big fan of the fight scenes in this, its not sci fi/ fantasy, but the choreography is amazing!

from the list it's community, archer, and once upon a time for me, can't WAIT for community to come back on. Though living in the UK, i've never seen an episode actually on the TV

I have this exact problem, but in firefox, I think I have a complete catalog of every blog post that's done a "all the best places to get free educational videos". ever.

I was hoping they'd go with fatboy slim

"Try as you might you can't catch me

I remeber reading what I think was the very first post on this site, i think it was talking about what an io9 was (something to do with a plug in cable that let you see a possible future for yourself, that ended up becoming super addictive? something like that anyway) and have stayed with it ever since

this comes at a pretty good time, I've just bought a blackberry playbook and am trying to set up and save all the websites I visit on a daily basis, though on firefox I have folders for webcomics and blogs, to stop it getting to unruly, does anyone know of sites that can do that well?

well I mostly want a device that can browse the internet and play video's, basically so I stop spending all my time in front of my computer, but android apps would be a very nice addition

I'm currently tempted by the playbook, as its only £170 GBP at the moment, which seems good value, though if it looks like RIM is only in more decline, then mabye I shouldn't and get an android tablet or ipad instead?
