Of course my first thought when viewing frame one and considering summer and camping are here was, "Damn, now the bears are wearing body armor ...."

Nah, It is a North American Arms 22 Magnum, and the photo is flipped ...

Buying an iMac. The towers are still expandable and are still "Mac"s and support many many different drive configurations including hardware accelerated RAID. People are talking about just using the second bay. Did the latest iMac make that a 3.5 inch bay? Before it was tailored to 2.5 inch SSDs. (Well a laptop drive…

If you want to get healthcare costs under control there is a simple first step. Ban doctors from owning stock in phrama companies, insurance companies, or hospitals (except private individual hospitals where they may be an owner, but ban ownership of publicly traded corporate hospitals), likewise ban pharma from…

Actually it was that Henry Ford had the concept that the Ford Factory worker should be able to by a Ford Automobile. Unlike a Foxconn worker who has little hope of affording to by and iPhone or iPad.

Or take the Pharm-Chem construction set and make the meds on demand.

Public Letter to the Honorable Gentleman, J.Jackson Jr.:

If they folded the other way then you could rotate the folded container 90 degrees and put multiples inside non-foldy containers.

T-Mob subscribers have a 1 to 2 year window while we replace our phones on average every 18 months to aggressive folks 12 months. An ATT will subsidize a replacement. The end result is the oddball 3G of tmobile will end finally and the subscribers will have to get into the standard world. And that gives folks like…

Levitation photo challenge fail.

Having owned a 1980's cell phone, this is more like a 1990's one. My Stylish mobile was the size of a school lunchbox, weighed quite a bit with the f sized lead acid gel cells in the battery pack (6 of them) and had a mobile mount about 1 foot square that required you to then detach the handset (sort of the size of a…

С Новым Годом! ъыиппее ки яыъ! р*спутник матери.

@Charliehorse: С Новым Годом! Ура Ги является матерью убл*д*к!

Wow, that plane gets around. It has been photo'ed in Cannes, Paris, Amsterdam and Stuttgart and now Saint Petersburg. Well, and Florida as well its home country.

rather than call them fake astronauts, maybe call them geonauts. What they are doing is important after all...

Sapphire is a perfectly good glass to use. 9 on the hardness scale and tough. It is what they use (when a glass is used) for bullet resistant (nothing is bullet proof, just get bigger faster bullets) glass on vehicles.

I won't be impressed until it is shown as a replacement back panel for an iPhone 4 and abused by being thrown from 4 feet high horizontally onto a paved parking lot and is undamaged. (Think skipping a stone on water). That would be impressive. The current iPhone material gets many many fine scratches ... And a 3rd…

@mr_mr: He was supposed to meet the pink dot off of third but they both got the numbers wrong ...
