I shall correct myself then.

While we're arguing about solar flares, or supernovas, we're kind of ignoring the obvious. The title states "an unknown object" "hit the earth". That, also, is ruled out right in the article.
Maybe a better title would have been "Some shit happened in 773 AD and no one really knows what it is, but here's what we have so far!"
Is this even feasible? with most flights you're 5-7 miles above the ground. IIRC, cell phone signals radiate mostly parallel to the ground. Can you even get a cell signal in a plane? I don't fly much, and the times I've had I never turned my cellular radio on in my phone.
It's quite likely that large corporations like Universal, Viacom, etc. have access to pull things down from YouTube on copyright claims without Youtube's approval.
I assume Youtube assumed these organizations would use their power responsibly. Perhaps that assumption needs to be revisited.
Often times caches specifically state "DO NOT SEARCH IN VIEW OF MUGGLES". "Muggles" being those unfamiliar with geocaching. This is a perfect reason why to heed those words.
no, honestly, this is dumb. the terrorists have won.
If the person who stole the SOE accounts could get in contact with me, I've been trying to reset my SOE password for 2 months now, and it hasn't worked. Could you tell me what my password is?
Is it a dead branch? look at this kid. He seems quite able to function in society. Evolution requires many, MANY 'misses' before it gets a 'hit'. Take a look at homo sapiens for example, and all the various "missing links" before it. those species all died out because they were dead branches.
I run a small forum that uses recaptcha . I used to get about 5-10 spam registrations a day. On the 6th I got 148, and the 7th I got 230.
I eventually instaled a plugin from StopForumSpam.com which is a combination blacklist/keyword checker to help weed out spammers and it's back to normal, or even below normal levels.

He probably hates the original because it's "slow, boring and confusing" too.
Kids have no appreciation for good cinema these days.
A lot. Viruses are called that because, well, they're viral. They can be passed from pigs to humans, from dogs to cats, from monkeys to humans, from birds to humans and vice-versa.
Maybe not. I will say that the TV I'm planning on buying in the next month will most definitely not come from Best Buy, though!. I've also dropped the $70 on Amazon prime and am purchasing books & DVDs via them, instead of running to my local Best Buy (which is in walking distance of my house)
Really this is just another bump on the road that leads to the crumbling of brick & mortar stores. Best Buy is trying to squeeze as much cash out of their customers as they possibly can.
A couple days ago I went in to my local Best Buy to buy a hard drive that they had listed for $129.99 on their website. I got to the store, and it was $165 on the shelf. In the past, it's been no problem to price match things that were on their site. However, this policy has apparently changed in the last few weeks, as they informed me that they no longer match prices on their site. The tag on the shelf wasn't one of the standard corporate tags, (the font was different, and the background of the tag was different) so it looks like they purposely jacked the prices of some items up. Anyway, I proceeded to stand in front of their customer service desk and order the drive off of their website with my phone using the "pick up at store" option. As I walked around for 15 minutes while I waited for the order to "go through" I noticed a lot of tags that were similar to the one I described. When comparing them to the website, all the tags had a significant markup compared to the Best Buy website. Other tags with the standard background matched the price on the website.
The girl at the customer service counter that I talked to said that this was "a new policy that went into effect a few weeks ago." She then proceeded to tell me that they did some sort of study that showed they were losing a ton of money by matching prices on their website. Personally I just see this as a huge death knell for, if not all best buys, at least my best buy.

what, pray tell, are you calling FUD?
People were willing to spend that money [in the Battle of B-R5RB] to get this thrill of participating in this battle.'"
Well the thrill of the "idea" of participating. The actual battle wasn't much to look at or be a part of.

Water is wet and the sky is blue.
Countdown to those with bad reading comprehension wondering why the story isn't about Google not accepting e-mail from non-@gmail.com accounts.
Ah, this is obviously some strange usage of the word "monetize" that I hadn't previously been aware of.

I think you're forgetting Blu-Ray.

You've answered your own question there with the word "most".
*SOME* are.

I've been saying it for years. Autism isn't a disease, it's the next step in human evolution.
Careful, they're going to try to extradite you for that comment.
I wonder if we can knock $2.3b off our debt to China, then?
I'll be impressed when they manage to pull it off with only one mecium.
