  1. So rinse, lather, repeat... how many times? on Next-Gen Samsung EV Battery Gets 300+ Miles of Range From 20-Minute Charge (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 2

    Yeah well that's all well and good, but how many times can this feat be repeated and with what kind of capacity loss to the batteries? Kinda light on the details guys.

  2. Wake me up when production starts... on Faraday Future Unveils Super Fast Electric Car (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    "the FF91 accelerates faster than Tesla's Model S or any other electric car in production" Yeah vaporware can definitely do that.

  3. How about an ISP white-list subscription service? on South Carolina Bill Wants To Put Porn Blocks On New Computers (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    Why foist the burden on the manufacturers, when ISPs could clearly use this as a service model? ISPs could offer a porn-free, white-listed, internet service as an alternative to the full-buffet-of-evil Internet service, and let the consumers decide which they want to use.

  4. Cortana? Cortana? CORTANA!?!? on Windows 10 'Home Hub' Is Microsoft's Response To Amazon Echo and Google Home (mashable.com) · · Score: 0

    {BSOD}...

  5. No way!!!

  6. Shouldn't that be "Streaking Through the Universe" on A Naked Black Hole Is Screaming Through the Universe (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't that be "Streaking Through the Universe"?

  7. Mark Watney could have landed it... on Schiaparelli Mars Probe's Parachute 'Jettisoned Too Early', Whereabouts Still Unknown (bbc.com) · · Score: 1

    Where's Matt Damon when you need him?

  8. Oh c'mon! Really?!?!? on Samsung's Next Flagship Smartphone May Not Feature a Headphone Jack (sammobile.com) · · Score: 1

    Seriously Samsung, be different by being the same for a change! First they took away the removable battery, and then they brought it back, and then they took away the microSD card slot, and then brought it back. It's just like Microsoft, every 2nd product release is the good one.

  9. Got plenty on the plate already... on Elon Musk Scales Up His Ambitions, Considering Going 'Well Beyond' Mars (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    How about we get to Mars and get the Model 3 out in 2018 and then we'll talk stretch goals?

  10. Okay, now just bring back the Marble FX Trackball! on Logitech Buys Saitek (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    We want you to bring back the best trackball ever created! Please Like it, if you want to see this happen folks: https://www.facebook.com/Bring...

  11. No unseeing it was huge! on iOS 10 Is Surfacing Hardcore Porn GIFs in iMessage (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Well thankfully it wasn't an image of Trump. That would have been really traumatizing.

  12. Well just think how we can magnify that by fracking on the moon...

  13. Robot vs Robot on Pentagon Chiefs Fear Advanced Robot Weapons Wiping Out Humanity (mirror.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    How about we just get to the next stage where robots take on the other robots and we leave the human casualties out of this? When you're out of robots you need to surrender.

  14. Re:The G4 Play makes no sense on Moto G Play Joins Amazon's Ad-subsidized Prime Exclusive Phones Program For $99 (betanews.com) · · Score: 1

    Smaller and lighter form factor for those people who don't like big phones. "The Moto G4 Play measures 144.4 x 72mm with a curve from 8.95 to 9.9mm and it hits the scales at 137g, making it slimmer and lighter than the third generation, as well as the other fourth-gen models. The measurements for the Moto G4 Plus and Moto G4 are 153 x 76.6mm with a curve from 7.9 to 9.8mm. They also both weigh 155g."

  15. So is that "Unlimited" unlimited, or Unlimited unlimited?

  16. Re:Use space above roads? on China Unveils 'Straddling Bus' Design To Beat Traffic Jams (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Or hyperloop. Why stick to regular roadway speeds?

  17. Re:train name submission on Nevada Startup Stores Energy With Trains (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Sisyphus McTrainface -- just to be current with the times...

  18. Re:Hydrogen storage: an engineering trade off on Tesla Co-Founder Says Hydrogen Fuel Cells Are a 'Scam' (electrek.co) · · Score: 1

    Well except that there's a latent pre-existing distribution system already in place for electricity. To the author's point, it's going to be converted back into electricity for locomotion, so at that point it's basically another form of battery, but with no existing infrastructure for delivery at this point.

  19. Like the phone, no Tmobile LTE support though on Xiaomi Revenues Were Flat in 2015 (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    I like quite a few of their phones, but unfortunately they've never support the proper LTE bands to allow them to be used with TMobile here in the US. Please put Band 12 support in Xiaomi!

  20. I don't think it's lower power... on Intel Wants To Eliminate The Headphone Jack And Replace It With USB-C (9to5mac.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't think it's lower power than a 3.5" headphone jack. Aren't we all about saving power on the mobile devices these days? Keep it simple, stupid!

  21. It's those rogue engineers again! on Mitsubishi: We've Been Cheating On Fuel Tests For 25 years (cnn.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The two rogue engineers should definitely get a sternly worded reprimand letter put in the permanent files now...

  22. Researcher now mysteriously missing... on Researchers Accidentally Make Batteries That Could Last A Lifetime (computerworld.com) · · Score: 2

    A marching band drum playing rabbit was seen in the hours leading up to the disappearance...

  23. I guess they'll need to whittle down the picture content to make it suitable for quickly screening people. Must take a while to get through 500 images.

  24. But they have Alexa... on Amazon Employees Launch Matchmaking Startup For Coworkers (geekwire.com) · · Score: 1

    .. what more could any dev need?

  25. Good to see proactivity on updates on Amazon Is Now Sending Postcards To Remind Kindle Owners To Update Their Devices (the-digital-reader.com) · · Score: 1

    Well it's good to see someone being proactive about updates for a change. (As opposed to being on devices that never get patched.)
