    Studios Blame Rotten Tomatoes for Ruining Summer Movies

    Did you really just say "I know I should keep my mouth shut before I see it, but Wonder Woman’s Certified Fresh score has the stink of SJWs all over it."? It couldn't possibly be because it is a good movie and people like seeing a women driven and directed movie? A movie staring and directed...

    CIOs Have Stopped Fighting the Cloud

    For those who say it is cheaper to host locally, your not doing it right. AWS offers lots of data storage options, monitoring, etc. so that you can tailor your setup to reduce cost. I also doubt you are taking into account utility, equipment, backup, and manpower costs. For most small...

    Apple Pledges $1 Billion on Manufacturing Jobs in the US

    Automation. They don't have to hire actual workers to claim American made products. I am sure they would love to see lower corporate tax breaks, but like when Reagan was the Pres, lowering government revenue so drastically doesn't work and even if they somehow manage it, will have to reverse...

    Apple Pledges $1 Billion on Manufacturing Jobs in the US

    People need to stop making the ridiculous claim that Trump has anything to do with this. Apple isn't going to change anything due to what that blowhard says. They only answer to shareholders and market economics. They see a path toward more money, simple as that.

    The Windows 10 Creators Update Is Now Live

    My laptop has annoyingly reset the brightness to 50% after every reboot since this update. I did some digging and then found out a lot of my power options are getting reset. Adaptive brightness keeps getting turned on, my Wifi power settings seem to change at random, and the default brightness...

    My First Virtual Reality Groping

    This. The comments here lead me to believe none of you are married, or have kids, much less daughters. Justifying behavior because it is on the internet and telling women to GTFO is ridiculous. If I found someone doing this to one of my girls, virtual or otherwise, I would hunt them down...

    Cox Denies Liability for Pirating Subscribers, Appeals $25 Million Verdict

    But in any case not involving the internet, you don't have to let the police in if they don't have a warrant. This ruling sets the precedence that publishers merely have to accuse a user and report them to the ISP's to have their service stopped. They like it this way so they don't have to pay...

    Self-Healing Fabric That Can Repair Itself

    What happens when it decides to heal into your skin or hair? Like said above, how would you wash it. Sounds like a cool idea until you actually use it.

    As Gamers Age, The Appeal Of Competition Drops The Most

    I can definitely attest to this. I do think there are other factors though. At 36 I work full time, have kids, am working on my Master's. I don't have the time to play enough to be all that competitive. The only game I still play that is competitive is CS:GO, and that is mainly because I have...

    Severe And Unpatched eBay Vulnerability Allows Attackers To Distribute Malware

    Quit using eBay last year due to the ridiculous fees. For how much they take off the top of a sale, there is no reason these types of issues shouldn't be fixed. I am also surprised eBay, Amazon, and other seller sites don't see some kind of government crackdown on this. They all charge the...

    Electric Vehicle Sales Fall Far Short Of White House Goal

    I actually think the opposite case is more prevalent. My daily commuter is a Toyota Yaris, due to the phenomenal gas mileage. My wife drives a CRV (she carts the kids around). I can't tell you how many times I have had these silly hillbilly truck/suv owners come up to me and laugh and ask why...

    Poll Sponsored By Charter Says Charter Is Great

    Haven't had many complaints with Charter over the years here in St. Louis as far as qualify of service goes. They have recently upgraded service twice in the past two years from 30 to 60 to finally 100Mbps. I think the price is artificially high, but when AT&T is your only local competitor...

    A Virtual Tour Of The USS Enterprise-D

    How would they get the cameras around if it was smaller? All the shots would be close up angles! (I know, realism buzz kill.)

    Former Mt. Gox CEO Charged With Embezzlement

    Lucky him it is only Japan. They are not known for their prisons. Will probably be a field day even if he is prosecuted.

    eBay Sends All Your Information To Any Bidder Who Asks

    Ebay's fees have bordered on ridiculous for the last few years. All of these online auction sites including Amazon rake in money for acting as an intermediary. I find a little legwork selling on non auction sites has been a better deal for me. So much so that I have recently closed my Ebay...
