If Feminism actually means being equal, then there is something distinctly Non-feminist about Jezebel- which regularly denegrates men ,women or anyone who doesn't agree with the particular politics of the writers. Unless 'equality' secretly means 'unqualified agreement with me on everything', Jezebel does not have…

Why would you not want to have inputs? Unused inputs don't detract but are absolutely needed when you need to hook up some old media-and new media like satellite still comes into the house through coax as does cable. My Roku is only a few years old, works fine and does not have HDMI. Perhaps you are rich enough to…

All you need to know is this is built on an Alfa Romeo chassis/drivetrain. Who knew Alfa Romeo still even existed? No thank you.

I disagree. There is a simple solution to ill-behaved children. The solution is called : ADULT PARENTING.As the ADULT, the parent is supposed to act as someone in charge and not like a physically large child. The Adult does not get drunk, shack up ,use drugs. The adult goes to work, comes home every day, and pays for…

Well, we all want more of everything in more convienent ways- but cost of creating a new system is huge. You notice these 'future cities' all involved people being moved into high density lifestyles which is what you have to do if there is to be a mass for mass transit to transport. I do not want to live like that.

The biggest issue is the scam of city govt. City govts claim it costs hundreds of millions per mile for a train system-which is simply graft and corruption. Los angeles is in trouble because no matter what it does, the cost is absurd . But I do support trains and there are trains everywhere in the US- they just do not…

So, you would rather live in the 1700's when hardly anyone had the ability to leave their village? The ability for people to move around is the great freedom of our age. It amazes me the cavalier way people want to throw away freedom. If you want to live on one block-go ahead and move downtown, but all the world is…

I watched the NFL games Sunday. I gew up watching and love the sport but the collisions are not sustainable. When people who weigh on average 240# and run 4.5 forty's hit each other, the damage is inevitable. I cannot see a future for the NFL.

The same neurologic circuits that let the TV show feel more real work when you play the games. Neurobehaviorists talk about extinction of the feeling of experiencing what wee see and hear as if it were real. It is a form of learning. That is just how we are wired. The more established your personality, the less media…

I wonder. Women are getting into new fields so I would be surprised if there are not more in game design and coding-but I have no data. Does anyone on io9 know about women game developers?

No, people should be able to hire whomever they think would make them succeed- but laws that promote diversity in hiring could make your plan difficult.

Actually, I was just using Mad Men as an example. The studies that look at how advertising works are legion and backed by the billions companies spend on advertising. You don't think they spend the billions for nothing. Ironically, the very companies that say their products don't influence you use adds with images…

So, the ESPN 'reporter' joins the SI one in declaring belief of Te'o at the same time they are investigating him- hopeless.

For any company to be purpusely one gender in its hiring practices is discriminatory and illegal. Laws cut both ways.
