  1. Re:Well done - but not sure I’d buy one... on Tesla Meets Self-Imposed Deadline For Model 3, Rolls Out 7,000 Cars In a Week (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Makes me think of that 80's movie Gung Ho where they rushed production to keep from being closed and cars were rolling off the line missing tires...

    Plus with Tesla's penchant to make production changes on the fly, and the questionable build quality of the Model 3's they've already produced.. yeah, pass.

    Thanks for this! I've been trying to remember the name of that movie for years! I tried googling what I could remember about the movie but could never find it.

  2. Re:Safety Cage on Flippy the Robot Takes Over Burger Duties At California Restaurant (ktla.com) · · Score: 1

    If you watch the video it shows the worker alongside the robot arm putting cheese on the patties... the robot arm is not in the way.

    can't they just use Ihatemyjob1!

  4. Re:Pixel 1 XL? on Google Unveils Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL With No Headphone Jack (venturebeat.com) · · Score: 1

    Where do you see the price drop for Pixel 1?

  5. Re:Do I not exist at all then? on These Are the 10 Most Popular Mobile Apps in America (recode.net) · · Score: 1

    Ugh where are my mod points? +5 funny

  6. Re:WTF is the point of these things? on Researcher Hacks Nine Sleep-Tracking Devices To Test Their Accuracy (brown.edu) · · Score: 1

    I don't have points or i'd mod this up :-P

  7. don't we all?

  8. users in that thread are reporting that even with the new version the issue persists... "I do have 1.0.42 installed. Still writing stupid data. "

  9. Android app still charging a fee on LastPass Makes Password Management Free Across All Of Your PCs, Tablets and Smartphones (cnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Unless they haven't updated the Android app, it's still showing this as a premium feature. I've installed it and it says "Your LastPass Premium trial will expire in 60 days". I would think if it was truly free now then I wouldn't be seeing this message.

  10. Re:They better make it to my house... on Google Fiber Pauses Operations, CEO Leaves, and About 9 Percent of Staff Is Being Let Go (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 1

    That number sounds grossly overestimated if you ask me...

  11. Majority voting with three systems has turned out to be dangerous .

    Well obviously 3 parallel systems won't work. We need to use a tried and true system... like superdelegates!

  12. Re:Prediction on Google+ Photos To Shut Down August 1 · · Score: 1

    I doubt if this will get discontinued soon. It's one of their more popular features.

  13. Old browser? on Google Serves Old Search Page To Old Browsers · · Score: 1

    The browser in question from TFA is Opera 12.17 which was released in April of this year (http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/1217/). I'd hardly call that an old browser.

  15. Re:maybe not sex toys on Google Demos Modular Phone That (Almost) Actually Works · · Score: 2

    .... looks for the "Mod post Creepy" dropdown option.

  16. Re:Methodological Problem in Summary? on Witness the Birth of a Meteor Shower · · Score: 1

    Because Earth's orbit didn't intersect with the comet's orbit until recently when Jupiter's gravity altered it. RTFA

  17. Re:You cancel service? on Dyn.com Ends Free Dynamic DNS · · Score: 3, Informative

    No-IP is a great free dynamic DNS alternative http://noip.co/1jVi5th

    their free service also requires you to sign in every month. I'd suggest a service like http://freedns.afraid.org/ which is completely free and doesn't require monthly logins to keep your account active.

  18. Re:You cancel service? on Dyn.com Ends Free Dynamic DNS · · Score: 2

    I switched over to http://freedns.afraid.org/ after they started requiring you to log in monthly and haven't looked back since.

  19. All i saw when i read the title was... on Former Popemobile Going Up For Auction · · Score: 1

  20. From the article... on Dawn Takes First Pictures of Vesta From Orbit · · Score: 1

    "Another purpose of Dawn's orbit around Vesta is to gather information for the eventual visit of astronauts by an asteroid by 2025"...

    I had no clue that asteroids were interested in visiting astronauts!

  21. Re:Never underestimate on Facebook More Hated Than Banks, Utilities · · Score: 1

    I still don't understand why you would even waste one second giving a shit about what they are doing with the data they collect from their users... If you don't have anything to hide then who cares, and if you DO have something to hide, why the fuck are you on a public social site in the first place?

  22. just embed them on Font Foundries Opening Up To the Web · · Score: 2, Insightful
