I'm pretty sure I saw something like this floating in the men's bathroom at work this morning. There was nothing Newtonian about it, I know that

@crazycaveman eats the whales: I googled and found that amazon link but it says "add to wishlist" so I figured it's not out yet. I'll check gamestop though. I'm ok with wired because I sit pretty close while playing and I've had 4 play and charge kits just stop charging my battery pack so that I have to leave the…

They're making 250 of them? Are you fucking kidding me? It's an Xbox controller, not a Ferrari. And does that 250 include the blue one or just orange? The orange is ugly but I'd be all over the blue one

The whole HDMI mirroring is cool, but outputting a game from your phone to an HDTV while having to use the phone as a controller is useless. A Bluetooth controller would make it pretty awesome though

@Annalee Newitz: If anything they're the ultimate result of male sentience

Morons will always get in the way of science

@Standish: His use of spare is correct

@acrobaticrabbit: The "Everyone was in costume!" part was what totally made it for me

My parents are cool, I'm friends with both of them. They use Facebook properly and don't bother me at all so I don't regret it. Of course, if accepting your parents as friends on Facebook turns out to be a mistake, it's not really one you can undo in good taste so it's a decision that you should probably weigh…

@Dynosaulo: Will the TV then have motion blur like a 60hz LCD?

My parents have the 55" LED model and while the picture is great it still has that horrific 240HZ motion smoothing that completely destroys any movie I try to watch. I won't be getting one myself until they can fix that

Anyone who calls Michael Bay a fucking retard is good in my book

Yeah, you'd call it a videogame tv show, if you had never heard the name "Borgia" before playing Assassin's Creed. Otherwise there isn't really any reason to.

@triggerx: What doesn't work about them? I'm serious enough that I don't put ice cubes in single malts and these seem like a good way to chill a whisky without watering it down

Those Whiskey Stones are pretty fantastic, I'll definitely get a set for a gift and for myself

@Mr B Natural: Nope I didn't find it confusing. It was complicated but well laid out, and I never felt I didn't know what was going on on the screen

@gerwen: Actually I had no idea that's what tethered meant, I assumed it meant that the phone just had to be plugged in for the initial jailbreak and that's all. I guess I just never looked into it before. Thanks for the info

@Mike_TeeVee: Ah ok. Personally I don't care if the jailbreak is tethered or untethered, usually I'm running the old iOS and when a jailbreak becomes available for the new version then I upgrade and jailbreak all at once. Other than not needing to plug in, why does it matter if it's untethered?

@Bonzai: 4.2.1 is already jailbroken. Also, making jailbreak tools is easy now with the multiple bootrom exploits so it's safe to release the jailbreak when the update becomes available

@peasant slayer: There's no reason the type of profiling used in Israel should cause any problems at all here
