I could never get behind the thought that a tablet is bad for reading books because it'd be too distracting. That's like saying one could never work from home because they'd never be able to focus on their work. I think the problem lies with the user's attention spans and not the devices. I use my tablet for reading…

I actually use it pretty religiously. During the day I use my computer, and while I'm on the go I use my phone. But when I'm home and winding down, I'll use it in bed. It's kind of replaced my night time reading. I'd say it gets about 1 - 4 hours of use every day.

I don't think anything with a $3,500 price tag (not including glass) could be considered a prosumer product. Also, I just finished an edit using only 4K Red Raw footage, on my i7 Dell with 6GB of DDR3 ram, and blasted right through it without one hiccup. I'd consider the Mark III a entry-level professional camera, and…

I don't think any of the points he made are able to be considered as "fair". Yes, I'm sure the German users would rather have content on the site be local, as well as the language be their local language. I'd say all countries would prefer that. But that's no reason to steal the entire design/functionality of another…

Yeah, it makes sense if you've only got a few people to cater the channel options around in your home. I've got a pretty big family, each with their own channel preferences. I'd assume we'd need to subscribe to at least 15 channels. At even $5 per channel I'd be paying exactly what I pay now, minus the costs involved…

I saw the concept stuff for the 4K DSLR, but I have a feeling it's going to cost even more than what Red's charging for their Scarlett.

I don't know it looks like a nice camera. But the Mark II made such a huge impact with it's video capabilities, I was hoping that they'd do a little more. Especially considering the 4 years it's taken them to release the next model. To me this is kind of like the when Apple released the iPhone 4S when everyone was…

As great as a la cart pricing for channels would be, I worry it's going to end up costing as much or more than cable costs monthly. When you factor in the number of channels you get for a basic cable package it's actually quite a lot. Nobody ever watches all of them, but still. This a la cart scheme could change the…

Haven't been this let down in a while.

I'm a terrible cousin because I don't actually know which part of Italy they're from. But yeah, I hate inaccurate blanket statements in general. I respect Mario Batali, but I often see him saying all Italians eat their pasta with very little sauce. Of course there is no right/wrong way and it always boils down to user…

I really don't get why people always say this. I have Italian relatives that visit the US every so often. When they come and have pasta, they drench it in sauce. Then if it's a bolognese after the pasta's done, they continue eating the sauce, almost as though it's a soup or chili. I always hear people talking about…

Love that they're finally doing this, hate the UI, it's just so bloated for something that works wonderfully on a screen the size of the iPhone.

Attempted it a few times, but quickly realized anything larger than a small end table costs like $100 for just shipping. Being a Prime user, this is nice!

I like most of what's listed here. I can understand them killing the optical drive, but I'm willing to bet that they will leave both the ethernet port and the firewire port as is. MBP's are called pro's not just becuase it's their beefiest machine, but also because they're built with professional level users in mind.

It's based on screen resolution I believe. So if you're hooked up to a full sized monitor you should get the normal Windows experience, and you can choose to go Metro at any time. But if it detects your screen to be smaller than normal, it puts you into Metro, assuming it's a tablet I guess? Can't be certain, just…

Nothing hurts me more than seeing someone use Instagram to apply a tilt-shift blur filter to a MMS screen shot. Actually I think it may just be the fake tilt-shift filter that bothers me most. But seeing it applied to screen shots really drives me nuts.

Really nice, but two blaring issues. Rather than embedding the video on your wall, it posts what looks like just a link to a site. I don't have the kind of friends that go around clicking random links, and since it doesn't looking like an actual link to a video, nor does it mention it in the post, nobody watches it.…

Its interesting. Does everything you read need to make you successful? Do you really read Gizmodo, every day looking for each article to help mold your personal life? Its entertainment, and this is interesting for the same reason half of the shows on Science channel are interesting.

Anyone else see the photographers standing in a line with their arms up, possibly chanting to the aurora gods at 0:50?

You didn't!?
