We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

    Tesla Model S Catches Fire While Charging

    Since the media went nuts over the first fires, they updated their warranty to cover fires like this. The warranty is pretty broad and covers everything short of purposeful immolation.

    Tesla Recalling 90,000 Model S Sedans Over Seat Belts

    Waiting list you say? Odd. I ordered mine a few months ago and had it in 3 and a half weeks. :p

    FAA Formally Recommends to Loosen Electronics Restrictions

    Indeed. I've never seen anyone attempt to make this argument about passengers for other methods of travel, all of which are more dangerous than commercial air travel. The mental gymnastics performed by individuals with no obvious stake in the unwarranted policy to justify its existence are...

    FAA Formally Recommends to Loosen Electronics Restrictions

    I can only imagine that the people I see endlessly posting "but, but distractions!" are approaching the issue entirely backward. I must assume that such individuals have decided that people should have to turn off everything, and are looking for any excuse to justify it. Sadly, the distraction...

    GPS Jammer Accidentally Jams Up Newark Airport

    The only way anything RF works is if no one is blasting noise louder than you are, and it is always easier to transmit noise. In other words, the only reason that any useful RF devices work is that we have such stringent regulations on transmission.

    $123k Kickstarter Game Cancelled, Money Already Spent

    Since we can't edit, yes there is the bit about the terms of use part saying they're supposed to make it or refund, but they're totally transparent in multiple ways that it's a gamble. Taken as a whole, good luck trying to sue anyone over your $20-$30.... :P

    $123k Kickstarter Game Cancelled, Money Already Spent

    Where did you folks seem to get the myth that there is any sort of guarantee or recourse if a project doesn't deliver? (Specifically Mr fabricate a "TOS" guy above"). There is literally no guarantee, and no legal recourse. Maybe in an instance of egregious bad faith actions, but a failed...

    Wearing Google Glass Into A Strip Club

    You do recognize that you pointed out an example of the exact opposite of irony, yes?

    Apple Just Lost 300M Customers

    The first iphone was the first decent multi-function phone. Since then, it has been caught up to and surpassed. The ipod was the same way, but has been surpassed by other phones. They were first to market with something decent, and have relied on momentum ever since. At the time, those...

    Firefox Users Pay Less for Car Insurance

    Sounds awfully similar to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_Quotient_(IQ)_and_Browser_Usage

    Google Reportedly Paid Adblock Plus to Whitelist Ads

    Well, obviously, being ad supported is a proper business model for a product designed to keep you from seeing ads. :/

    Cable Holding Back Superfast Broadband?

    Eh, I can't really complain about my 100/20 cable connection. 50/10 is only $50-60 a month, and that really is plenty for most people. 100/20 is kind of overkill for me, but I haven't gotten around to downgrading it since they changed it. The only thing that takes advantage of it is steam...

    Windows 8.1 Lets You Lock Folders With Your Fingerprint

    I've said it before, but biometrics are overrated. Once cracked, your biometric fingerprint (covering fingers, eyes, anything else you might use for identity, down to DNA) can't be changed to something else. A good authentication mechanism needs the flexibility to change if compromised...

    Motorola Shows Off Tattoo and Swallowable Password

    Biometrics will never replace abstract information for security. The reason being, you have one set of biometric data. As soon as an individual can emulate you, you lose the ability to secure *anything*. Abstract and changeable authentication mechanisms, once compromised, are easily changed...

    Atari E.T. Game to Be Unearthed on Its 30th Anniversary

    Agreed. Of all the Atari games we had, other than a small few, they all were equally bad.
