This is a strange review- it seems obsessed with the spec sheet instead of the results. The fact that it has a dual camera is listed as a plus, shouldn’t the plus be how good of photos it takes? But then, the photos are only mediocre. Also, you mention how it has an in-screen fingerprint reader, like that is a plus as…

Is it evil week already? Seems a little early for that. 

I am not an audiophile, which is probably why I have Bose. I wanted the best NC I could buy for flying and at the time, it was Bose. They were also super comfortable, another plus. And, I could head movies/music just fine so good enough for me. Their NCing technology used to be unrivaled (and I know this reviewer…

Artificially keeping unneeded jobs around would be a bandaid applied to a decapitation. Even if Amazon chose to do this, the next Amazon (which will come up, because they won’t be hiring unneeded help) will just dominate the market. And I’m sure I’m going to be lectured about how this technological revolution is…

Notice the author of this piece both makes fun of someone for asking a question and doesn’t bother to answer the question. If I was a better man (and I am! Who wants to bet me?) Chris can’t answer this question. 

While all of this is true, I think you’re leaving out an important part- if you were in orbit around the Earth, when you weren’t in the shadow of the Earth you’d get really, really hot. The ISS is heated up to about 250 F in orbit, and relies on cooling so that things don’t bake inside.

Is this really an article about how Samsung is doing R&D on a new product type? What is the story here?

Imagine thinking that this is a story- that members of the USMNT didn’t respond to a blog asking them to comment on a current case. 

There’s good arguements to be made that the USWNT is under paid- but this is the worst arguement. If the USWNT played the USMNT, I’m pretty sure the USMNT would win, handidly. So, should we base pay on that? Or, is number of goals score a meaningless metric?

There was a lot of weird stuff which happened, but more w/ the accusers mom than the accuser herself. The mom was a scumbag who faked evidence. Does that look bad for the accuser? Sure. But it wasn’t actually the woman. 

I’m not saying the video looks real but...

This one doesn’t have visual mapping, so it will clean in a random pattern and miss stuff. And if you have much in the way of chairs, etc it will likely get stuck and need your help getting it out. All of the discount robot vacuums are like that, not just this one, but know you’re not getting the one which can…

Because the CGI dinos in JP don’t look “perfect” or anywhere close. Go up and look at the #1 clip- those dinos look way worse than any dino from JW. The dinos that look really good in JP are the T-Rex attack (animatronic) and the T-Rex chasing the Jeep (in the dark/rain). The full GCI dinos in the daylight show their…

I don’t think so, because the controller is part of what makes it work. The controller connects to the internet, not to the Chromecast, and sends your commands straight to the Stadia server. 

Just so you know, with 8 billion people Google would need 8 quadrillion dollars (8E15) to give everyone a million dollars. Google is worth about 800 billion, but that means they could give everyone on Earth 100 dollars. 

I’m a little disappointed no one brought up the fact that negative temperatures (in Kelvin) are hotter than any positive temperature, and we’ve created negative temperature systems, so by definition- one of those (in this case “hotter” being defined as “if object A is hotter than object B, then thermal energy will…

Mark Hammil said that when he got the script for TLJ the characterization of Luke Skywalker was so different from how he imagined that he found it easier to think of him as a different character- Jake Skywalker. Hammil’s comments were about how when he first read the script, he was taken back. Later on, in the same…

His use of the “Jake Skywalker” tells you everything you need to know- he think TLJ sucked (which is a valid opinion) and that everyone else hates it to (which is false) and that Disney including TLJ in their theme park means that Disney doesn’t care that everyone hates TLJ. 

About the first point- Star Wars has always had a weird relationship with the vast distances of space. ESB had the Falcon flying to a different system with a broken hyperdrive and TLJ has the ships not jumping to hyperspace and ending up at some new system as well.

So I know my Anker Liberty Lites ones aren’t “the best” which is what this is finding, but how much better are these other wireless earbuds than the ones I have? Worth the premium?
