The FTC wants your ideas on how to make IoT devices more secure and they are offering a cash prize of $25,000. I don't think they liked my "quit hooking refrigerators and toasters to the internet you idiots" submission. The Federal Trade Commission announced today that it is challenging the...

The PNY GTX 960 is short enough to easily fit in this chassis. I didn't have a 1050 Ti on hand or I would have preferred to use it since it doesn't have a 6-pin power connector. As far as heatpipe adapters, I know they have one for added CPU cooling but I didn't see one for GPUs (but it would be...

During the nightly news, a reporter was trying to explain how a young girl accidentally ordered a dollhouse using an Amazon Echo, but he ended up triggering viewers' Amazon Echos to start ordering dollhouses from Amazon. :D Which is exactly what happened today during CW6 in the morning when...

Since the "experts" aren't the ones going to be on the receiving end of a lawsuit or jail time, I think I'm going to just go ahead and avoid using Kodi add-ons to pirate copyrighted material for now. Unlike most other kinds of unauthorized online sharing, the way content is delivered through...

I know the "story" here is supposed to be that Tim Cook made $1.5 million less in 2016 than he did in 2015 but I think the real story is that there are at least five other executives at Apple making almost $23 million per year. Wow! :eek: The filing reveals Apple CEO Tim Cook made $8.7 million...

Verizon's PR team contacted us with a statement on the issue.

Verizon's PR team contacted us with a statement on the issue. I've updated the original post.

It's not so much that this guy was caught by the use of technology as it was the total lack of common sense. Why in the world would you swipe your ATM card during a bank robbery? Neal entered the Wells Fargo branch on First Avenue on May 13 and approached a teller window, according to his plea...

I'll just repost what I said in the other thread:

Well that sucks then. :(

I can totally see Clueless Gamer as a stand alone show. Most of the segments are pretty funny and it has a big enough audience that it could get better ratings than most of the other crap TBS has on the air right now. ;) The project, which is in development but is considered likely to go to...

Okay, the reason I personally thought this was a big deal ISN'T whether or not $73K is worth it...it's because Verizon, a company with almost $140 billion in revenue last year, could DONATE the cost of the bill to a VOLUNTEER fire department. It would be a tax write off, it would be good...

Say what you want about T-Mobile's CEO, the guy knows how to seize on a perfect opportunity to make his competitors eat crow. The funny thing about T-Mobile, even though I am not a customer, almost all of the cool benefits I've received from my carrier in the past few years are a direct result...

Okay, I like where this is going. While I am not sure how VR porn is going to work out, I like the sound of "carnival of sex." :D And while new owner and CEO Kelly Holland is reverential of Penthouse's illustrious past -- she's investing heavily in its print magazine -- she's very much focused...
