Please, we need to put an end to this tired sentiment. Browse around on brothers-brick.com or other Lego sites and tell me again about how all the fancy-new pieces, action figures, and licensed content is some kind of impediment to using Lego for whatever-the-heck kids/people dream up. It's really not.
I used to think this. I changed my mind when I starting thinking about all the tech we've developed as a result of our desire to fix those problems. I think our desire to help those who can't help themselves is ultimately a good evolutionary direction even though it can seem like a waste of resources in some cases.
I don't buy the "everyone is special" thing either - but there has to be somewhere in-between instead of either extreme. That's what makes it a challenge.
Don't hate me - but I like Win8. Takes some getting used to but there are a lot of nice power features. Just the fancy new keyboard shortcut Win+X alone will get you a long way toward adjusting.
^^ This.
I'm actually content with the current state of vacuuming robots - you need to adjust your house a little but they at least CAN work well.
Lawn mowing robots on the other hand really need to be taken to the next level. I would love to buy one but there are just too many problems with the current offerings.
Well it serves me right to get called out for "wooshing" something so obscure anyway.;) I'm mostly Dutch, live in Holland, MI - that's an unfair advantage...

Sorry, misclick, meant to rate you funny.
No removable storage. Less headphone jack than a Galaxy. Lame.
Seriously, yes, the proper response is to hope that the scientists are wrong... Wow... No further comment.
Just had jump on and thank you guys for what you've done with the place so far. Much appreciated.

I hear they work great for farming, why not in schools too? /sarcasm
No kidding... Wow. Pathetic - and I'm usually not one to comment.
Let's just hope this doesn't turn into something people think is cool...
Apple's race for thinner phones bites users in the ass.
I'm pretty sure that's a choice.
It's called Eureka Village.
FWIW I'm "in the know" and this was completely unsolicited. http://techreport.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=81535
I just installed d3coder for Chrome. Not ideal but better than clicking links...
You asked for it. That is all.
Guilty as charged. Just installed the custom WP 7.8 ROM onto my Samsung focus - looking good.

Yeah, but the rent is atrocious.
X-Men? Try Dune.
Not that they're worth anything but if the forum migration that the did recently is any indication this could last for weeks...
Make a Minecraft themed one and I will find a reason to need it.
