That 30 year old Ranch Ketchup pouch is as good as new. #McDonaldsNeverSpoils

There u go.. ?

Doom and Quake are pretty much the first games to be ported on any platform. I wouldn’t be surprised if my electric toothbrush could run them.

10kg and up? Sorry, you’re not flying. Call it a “controlled” fall. So every time I see a clip of a nut case in a squirrel-suit I expect this conclusion:

Never mind me. I’m Just browsin’ Gopher.

While it’s true that workstation users will have a different OS for their daily usage, let’s not forget that a lot - if not most - of embedded systems now use a Linux or Unix flavor. To state a few, that might include your home/work router, your smartphone, smart TV, some set top boxes, self-driving cars (most likely)…

On Fallout 3 I had the great idea to spawn about a thousand teddy bears high above Megaton and “make ‘em rain”. Once I exited the console and that the physics engine kicked in, my computer basically nope’d and flipped the finger at me. Crashed every time I loaded that quicksave.

I recently noticed that trend browsing my kodi db. Hey, what’s that movie about? It’s uh, about a dude with a gun! That movie is also about a dude with a gun! Well, I apparently got a bunch of movies about different dudes with guns! The rest are all about a couple taking a walk in the city.

Wait, what? On top of snooping and reporting on your hard-drive’s content, Ads are now an integral part of the interface ? I swear I am sick and tired of the constant exposure to harassing, intrusive advertisement. Soon enough, you will probably have to go through unskippable adverts before being allowed to start your…

Oh, just wait. They're still working on their next best thing that will be imposed by the subsequent iOS update: the default Apple Web search! Which will, under the guise of simplifying your experience and abstracting what you don't need, prevent you from finding what you want and instead direct you to 3rd party apps…

Fashion for the paparazzi whores. Ah, MySpace, what have you done of this generation.

it is, after all, JJ Abrams you are talking about. He has that kind of fixation about mysteries that never get revealed.

so '98.

well, here's my reply.

meh. It's cloverfield with giant robots.

Seems like io9 is in dire need of validated emails to sell, to compensate for the lack of publicity that should be taking up 90% of their articles.

Aside from the few who unfortunately were victim of the other's poor judgement, that's a serious Top 50 Darwin Awards right there. I swear, sometimes I wonder why those found guilty of reckless driving don't get their licence revoked for life..

According to this video, blind people have unnaturally small brains residing much lower than the average. Fear not though, they'll fix it by implanting very uncomfortable, protruding battery packs and wireless receivers around the afflicted's eyeball and an HD 10x6 pixels retina display so that they can make sense of…
