I was wandering the same thing. Wouldn't they turn as the axles turn?

I'll add my 'meh, it changed, I wasn't too bothered' to the ring.

Ouch, you wound me to the quick sir. You have most valiantly used straw man arguments, ad hominem arguments, motive-based arguments, begging the question, either-or reasoning, essentializing, the excluded middle, false analogy, guilt by association, appeals to privacy, overgeneralization and reductionism (I'm not…

Bud, have you heard of venture capitalists? Stock? Investment banking?

You know what, I'll own up - I did not think they were as transparent as you claim. I guess that's my fault for firing off some armchair commentary.

I dunno, is the bottling plant built out of your DNA?

They're not "helping" to cure Parkinson's anymore than I "help" prevent skin cancer by lending you my sunscreen. They're making a buck. They're specifically licensing it to companies that can afford to pay - companies that will in turn factor that cost into their "development" costs on the drugs they produce, which in…

Rather than respond to anybody in particular, I'm just going to point out why this makes me go ick. Privacy issues aside, whether anybody did or did not agree to or sign or otherwise volunteer their information and completely ignoring all the possible benefits and detriments that can come from Big Pharma having our…

This is a question of pure ignorance, not an attempt at snark or sarcasm - do they really need ten people to fly a drone? I realize I know nothing about the complexity of drone piloting, but I thought the whole point was that it was one person halfway around the world with a joystick in their hands that flew the…

I was struck by the tilted panel above it - I think it's a sculptural allusion to the rise to divinity. The figure raised off the cross, approaching the ceiling which in turn appears to be pulled upward.

Just curious how you meant it - what makes the fanless laptops dumb? Did you mean that they don't have a lot of muscle under the hood or that the design of a fanless laptop is a bad idea on the whole?

The two are not in conflict? The article says nothing about the crystal other than it is present - it makes no mention of how often, if ever, they are swapped. So both Adam's article and your article from FIVE YEARS AGO can both be true...

Here here! An excellent article. Thanks Adam.

I really like that last one. Something about the janitor juxtaposed with this incredible opulence...

That's gotta fill you up for the day. Is that why? Just one big meal and you've freed up the rest of the day for Important Business Matters?

I shall call pic #3 "Chilling with Hawking" and be intensely jealous of these people acting so casual around a wizard of time and space.

Well gee, if I'd have known that most of what I wanted to know about a story would rely entirely on my own imagination, I would have... come here and read this story anyway...
But seriously, this summary (because it's not an article) doesn't even list out what they are beyond Duval. So yes, the rest involves possibly…

But how much of that was the freedom your schedule allowed? When you were a kid you COULD stay up that late, because it didn't really matter and you had long stretches of time where it wouldn't impact your schedule. Now work expects you up and clocked in by 8 EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. There's no summer break, or winter…

Travis Bickle, is that you?

Turns it into a what? A WHAT?!?! Oh god, the anticipation's killing me.
