Agreed. I enjoy the TV show American Pickers, and I love it when they find something that’s of significant value, the owner wants X dollars, and Mike or Frank says, “Oh no, that’s not enough, I’ll give you XXX.”

I felt the same, but being the gadget-loving nerd that I am, I bought one anyway, and it turns out we love it. We keep it in the kitchen so it’s great for playing music (specific or nebulous) while cooking, asking for a timer when your hands are all fooded up, getting quick news headlines, controlling our Hue lights,…

The eBay description says that flashlight is 5000 lumens. It is most assuredly NOT.

“If consumers don’t read the words, then there is no effective disclosure”

This. All day long, this. I’m a Bay Area rider and frequently find myself on a fairly packed freeway going 70-ish mph and invariably some dickwagon comes bombing down the line at 80+. It’s infuriating. I don’t give a shit if these people end up crashing into a bridge abutment, I care more that they’re working hard to…

I see “New” and “Yahoo” in the same sentence, and I can’t help but snicker.

Four stages? I go from “Math” to “Poof” in a single stage.

This is all so meh. I’ve had lots of iPhones over the years - first gen through 4S - then went to Windows Phone, then quickly jumped to Android and had a few Samsungs (S2, S3, Note 3), then went back to iPhone with the 6, then quickly to the 6 Plus which is what I have now. I’ve been holding out on upgrading, but all…

You also have to consider that most people typically see themselves more often in a mirror, and mirrors are liars so when people see themselves on video, they see a more accurate representation. This whole video is pretty great (because Vsauce) but I have it set to start where it’s relevant to this discussion.

We peel the husks back (leave attached), remove all the silk, soak, season (if desired), put the husks back in place and grill. Perfection.

Der Sir, I am the high prince of Uganda. I’m interested in this. In fact so interested, I have $10,000,00.00 in US funds waiting for you. All you need to do is give me your bank account number, social security number, and wire me $1,000.00 US and you will receive $10,000,00.00 in quick reply. Please respond to this…

Dammit, DeMuro. I nearly snarfed coffee all over my laptop by way of my nose.

“Volkswagen’s Emissions Scandal” Holy crap, finally!

Came here for this, leaving satisfied.

Why are you here?

No, you’re right, the Supra started out as a package on the Celica.

Is this the official announcement for The Big Short 2?

Just scrub the mission already.

“...and each season is around 40 Earth years.”

True fact on the difference humidity makes, though once you get up over 100 degrees, each degree can feel an order of magnitude higher, humidity or not. One year I rode my motorcycle from the Bay Area to Vegas at the end of August, and at one point across the Mojave it hit 111 (my bike as an ambient air thermometer).…
