And you're proud of this? Ok, I'll grant you Jersey Shore, but it's an extreme insult to put that in the same sentence with SNL and Dr. Who.

Yes, Johannesburg is *that* Wild West. Effectively everything is walled off and covered in barbed wire, lots of armed private security, etc. It's a pretty dangerous place.

You missed the point: on iOS, turning off "automatically join networks" actually turns off the beacon scanning unless and until you actually go into the settings and look for a wifi network manually. It's one of the things I always turn off in order to save battery life. You will still auto-join any network that…

So are they both now frozen in place because they can see each other?

"cymbal". Dammit.

Just had this kind of thing happen last week. The green cymbal on our Rock Band pro drums kit stopped working. So I took it apart, and it turned out one of the leads from the motion sensor had broken off at the solder joint.

I took the opportunity to order a solder training kit for my 9-year-old (~$12 on Amazon), which…

Are you new? Because using #corrections has been used on Gizmodo for years to alert the authors of errors.

"A personal blimp fits all these criteria perfectly."

blimp ≠ dirigible

I don't know whom you're quoting there, but it wasn't me. That being said, the statement quoted is accurate. In order to make the Christian religion palatable to the Roman populace, the newly Christian leadership subsumed several pagan holidays (including the Feast of the Saturnalia) which took place around the winter…

Alright, here is a fact: There is no physical evidence to suggest the existence of any supernatural being commonly referred to as "god" or "gods".

Actually, the comment was intended to draw you out. You aren't a "normal" run-of-the-mill Christian, which is what I suspected. You've drunk the koolaid and have spent years of your life apparently getting degrees in religious studies. That would make it effectively impossible for you to have any other view than the…

Ten years of Catholic school. I'm fairly certain I know more about Christianity than you do.

Is it religion if I'm trying to "convert" you to the "belief" that Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy don't exist because there is no evidence to support the idea that they do?

Wearing the ignorance of any field of endeavor as a badge of honor is stupid, but especially so when it involves something that most people would say provides critical services to them on a daily basis. You are proud of being ignorant of how to keep your computer virus free? Or of how to do backups? When this is the…

The headquarters is in Taiwan. They have manufacturing facilities in several places in mainland China. What are you, new?

But that's true of all insurance; the insurance company makes money.

This report is not complete until there's been a review by Frucci.

If you really mean that, I dare you to go to Iraq or Afghanistan, stand in the middle of a town square, and start yelling "I'm an American!".

I'm willing to bet you were one of the same people who used to say Windows was better because it has more apps than MacOS...

RTFA. Guatemala arrested him for crossing the border illegally, not for the murder charge in Belize. Dumb ass.
