Even with CDs, you didn't have the portability and heft of a cassette tape. You were always worrying about scratching it, or breaking it. Just stick the tape in your pocket and go. And then if you hate the tape, unwinding it and pulling out all the tape was so much more satisfying than breaking CDs, etc.

I love XKCD as much as the next geek, but why is this on Gizmodo? This comic, specifically, is hardly tech/gadget oriented, but so too a ton of other comics that have been re-posted in the past. Is this a page views ploy? Some agreement set up with Mr. Munroe to re-post his comic on a Gawker every time he comes out…

It's times like this when I miss Chad Ochocinco sarcastically calling Goodell "Dad" .

I don't know whether to applaud, or be appalled. Godspeed, you pelican-dicked man.

I feel like the intro to these posts pretty much follow the exact same template. "[username] wanted something minimal but informative for his [medium]—something that brought in useful information but kept it all out of the way so he could work. The end product is useful, minimal, and attractive." Not that there's…

If it were Gregg Easterbrook, he would be snickering "I told you so's" and lambasting Dan Snyder for trading up to get a FIRST ROUND GLORRREEEE BOOOIIEEEEEE

I thought part of the reason why dishes were left in the sink was because they were soaking in water and therefore, easier to clean later. By leaving the dishes out around the sink, you certainly make the entire kitchen area less appealing (thereby encouraging dish-washing), but didn't the dishes themselves get more…

What if this hadn't been the Packers? What if, instead, this was a Seattle vs. Cleveland game, or Seattle vs. Carolina game? Would we more than 1/10th the outrage we're currently seeing? Would we see Shaun Suisham sending apologetic tweets to the Browns? And why are the first 59:99:99 of the game being ignored?…

If this were a Seattle vs. Cleveland game, is there any doubt that there'd be about 1/10 or 1/15 the "national outrage", and way more "Haha sucks to be Cleveland"?

I hate it when it gets so hot that my eyes start sweating.

If you're in Chicago, "The Violet Hour" does this. They also make the most delicious Old-Fashioned I've ever had.

Neé actually means 'born', so wattznext is correct, unless Deadspin is making reference to her ex-pornstar career. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nee

Ha! Duh. Thanks :D

I think this is the second challenge when there hasn't been a link to the Flickr photostream? If I'm mistaken, could someone please point it out to me?

Holy shit, thanks for explaining that. Good to know that it's not black magic. If you want to do more frames than 3 (say, 5, or 10), could you follow a similar process? Or does it reach a point in which your brain ends up recognizing what's happening?

Maybe it could break the 30 mph barrier if it was fueled by HUMANS.

Same here <3

My god, man, take all my +1's please.

Sounds like real-world Daredevil. Awesome.

Are there hardware requirements/minimum specs?
