  1. Recharge every 4-5 days? on Apple's iWatch Could Come With IOS, Earn $6 Billion a Year · · Score: 1

    That seems like a lot of work to keep a watch going.

  2. Re:Unplayable on Bethesda: We Can't Make Dawnguard Work On the PS3 · · Score: 2

    I played to level 31 on a PS3 before buying the Steam version for the PC. The PC version is so much more responsive, not to mention moddable, that there's almost no comparison. The long delays on the PS3 when moving to another area, opening doors & etc. was pure torture.

  3. Nobody expects the spanish inquisition! on When Art, Apple and the Secret Service Collide · · Score: 5, Funny

    ...amongst their weapons are fear, surprise, and an almost fanatical devotion to the pope.

  4. Talking to your Apple TV on DirecTV CEO Scoffs At Competition From Apple TV · · Score: 2

    I could be wrong, but laying on a couch and talking to your TV for hours on end has the potential to be a soul-deadening experience.

  5. Why now? on Facebook To Buy Instagram For $1 Billion · · Score: 1

    I suspect that the reason Facebook is buying Instagram now is that once they go public, they won't have the ability to arbitrarily add shares.

  6. Google's problem is simple on How Google Is Remapping Public Transportation · · Score: 0

    Advertising was always evil.

  7. $5 says it ran out of gas on Air Force Says Iran Didn't Down Drone · · Score: 2

    ... 'nuff said

  8. Nine dollars on Windows Phone Unlock Tool Goes Official · · Score: 1

    The main thing I use my Android phone for is playing chess against the computer while recumbent on the couch. Nine dollars seems a bit ridiculous.

  9. Re:Will not work on HP Slate 2: Brilliant or Bust? · · Score: 1

    It's pointless to say Windows 8 tablets suck - it's like saying Amazon Fires suck. The great thing about Android is it's (sometimes) rootable. If there's a superuser equivalent in a Windows 8 tablet at a reasonable price, I'd buy one anytime.

  10. Just how anonymous can the data be? on OnStar Reverses ToS Changes · · Score: 1

    If the car is parked at home almost every night.

  11. Well, Duh on OnStar Reverses ToS Changes · · Score: 1

    "For the life of the car" lack of privacy means I would never buy a car with OnStar in my life.

  12. A Superior Headline on 50 New Exoplanets Found, Billions More Await · · Score: 1

  13. Re:Jailbreaking? on Jailbroken Devices Compromised By Charging Stations · · Score: 1

    yes, it is

  14. Jailbreaking? on Jailbroken Devices Compromised By Charging Stations · · Score: 1

    It's hard to beat DroidWall and su status to keep "all open apps" from "constantly connecting for reasons unclear."

  15. Re:Easy solution on United States Loses S&P AAA Credit Rating · · Score: 1

    This is a false premise. Even if there were budget surpluses for decades, the existing debt will have to be continually rolled over into new bonds as the old bonds mature.

  16. Apple the soon to be wealthiest corp. in the world on Amazon, Google Cave To Apple, Drop In-App Buttons · · Score: 1

    Can kiss my ass.

  17. A good read on Aaron Swartz Indicted in Attempted Piracy of Four Million Documents · · Score: 1

    summarized: A fellow at the Harvard Center for Ethics engaged in rampant downloads of JSTOR's (MIT's) document library under false identities and without authorization.

  18. Re:As someone who mostly reads books in bed on Google eBooks-Integrated E-reader Out On Sunday · · Score: 1

    As I think about it,e- readers should have microphones so you can whistle or make other sounds to change pages.

  19. As someone who mostly reads books in bed on Google eBooks-Integrated E-reader Out On Sunday · · Score: 1

    It's going to be hard to beat swiping across a touch-screen to change pages.

  20. Re:Don't worry about RIM on RIM Struggles Continue · · Score: 1

    Apple still thinks people can type on flat screens and only need one battery per device.

  21. RIM is outmatched on RIM Struggles Continue · · Score: 1

    on all sides

  22. Battery Store on Apple: an 'App Store' Is Not a Store For Apps · · Score: 1

    Now that sounds like an insanely great idea.

  23. There's a big problem with the "new" 12-C on Hewlett Packard's Cult Calculator Turns 30 · · Score: 3, Informative

    The 9 key on the HP 12-C, Platinum edition is not reliable after being pressed a few thousand times. This has been reported by many finance types, and makes the platinum unusable.

  24. This patent, that patent on Microsoft Continues Android Legal Assault · · Score: 1

    />

  25. OK, that is a great headline on 3D Printers Create Edible Objects · · Score: 1
