My city is worse, they have fake recycling bins that all get mixed up and ignored by the citizens and workers alike.

Down with system maps! Designers need to stop drinking the kool-aid. All the pretty colors and abstracted details, the impression of usability, without offering so much usefulness. New York used to have great maps with street detail on every train and in every station. They need to lead by example again and have a…

Simple answer to the headline, and the answer to why generic sodas and other are as a rule poorly designed (despite having development and production budgets just like non-generics): generic and commodity products have to signal their cheapness and generic-ness to the masses who are making rushed decisions based on…

Standing for long stretches is for fools, but so it sitting in a low chair like you're conducting a tea ceremony. Rolling stools or high chairs that let you match your standing eye level are great, you can grab your stool or eject from it without a loss of focus. This setup lets you use your cube desk surface as a…

On of my first lessons of retail and food service: even if a job can be done better while seated you still shouldn't sit because it makes you look lazy. The boss or customers are always around and wouldn't understand.

Just wash your hands again.

It's probably not very portable, just like it 12UX predecessor. Looks like the single device cord forks out into power, usb, and display. The video on their site happens to gloss over that there is probably another brick of a power supply with buttons that no one will ever use. Hint to Wacom: it's okay, and…

Yeah looking at the site and their video it's definitely not multitouch. Thanks Giz, and here's another unmerited page view for you!

You're kind of tearing into people and disregarding that most of us do know what we're talking about, have tried the options, and are cognizant of the positives/negatives of any of our many digital drawing options.

There is no model by that name and there are no assumptions with Wacom. I think you mean that it would make sense to include capacitive as well as the digitizer – and I would agree with you. But if it has both don't you think they'd mention it?

Yeah, they win for laziness/drunkenness factor for me. They are the goldilocks option, unsexy and unloved, but secretly awesome. No one will ever write an article biased in their direction. This article assumes that every biker is like the author, or should be. Some people are not interested in power, they want to…

Painful blue signals "tech" to those who know nothing about tech. It just evolved that way, I wish I knew when it started. New designers and established companies choose to manipulate this quirk to no end.

But that might burn at a different temperature than 451°. Maybe a ghost-written sequel?

I can't get worked up into full Hulk rage but I do want to inform the world: it's called a strawberry huller. I guess you hull strawberries with it.

As per usualmodo, I'm not seeing a direct connection between headline and article. Journalism 101 stuff.

My Dualshock d-pad doesn't let me push down more than one button at the same time. Seems like it's the same part underneath. Not sure if that would be useful to actually have independent buttons.

I'm in the same boat. iPad 1 works fine for except for when it doesn't. It's not even sluggish. I just don't know that upgrading to an iPad 2-3 will solve any specific issues (safari and app crashes I tend to blame on sites and app developers). This sit in particular, and engadget, gives me safari crashes. If someone…

That's in line with tenured grade school teachers and university maintenance. Not as a rule, but it can happen. It's one of the many professions that pays beans at first and then rewards you for department loyalty and the ability to do the same thing for decades without making your boss or coworkers look bad.

I officially bequeath you the title of Monarch of Double Double Double Negative Trick Questions. May it bring you luck on your eugenics campaign.
