    Criminals Find Novel Uses for 3D Printing

    Magazines that hold more than 10 rounds aren't illegal in most states - not to mention cheap. And don't forget the spring, follower, and baseplate. And I'd like to see how long a lower receiver made on one of those non-professionally rated units with substandard material would hold up under...

    Modern Warfare 3's Pepsi Cross Promotion Steps Over the Line

    My first thought also. And why is this any different from spending real money on those silly Facebook games or preordering "ultimate editions" from certain vendors for unlocks? At least with this they ony get double XP for a certain amount of time. Who knows, they may have a crap match...

    Electronic Arts Revises TOS to End Lawsuits

    If you can prove damages the EULA violates your Seventh Amendment right to trial. This policy of changing EULAs, changing how devices function, and what their capabilities are, while attempting to leave no recourse to the consumer is a very worrisome trend. All it will take is one or two...

    iPhone or Captivate

    GPS on the Captivate is not the best but it usually can get you pretty close while in a vehicle or on foot. Even with that the Captivate got my vote

    Navy Shoots Down Plane With Really Big Raygun

    Then someone will get the idea to send someone over to the other guy's place to break his stuff with a big stick because that can't be hacked.

    Washington to Require That 'Quiet' Cars Get Alert Sounds

    I'd have the siren from the Ghostbuster's Ambulance, a tie fighter, the space turd from Star Trek 4, and a normal car approaching and driving away from you (Doppler Effect FTW!).

    U.S. Based Companies Sued For Heat Pipe CPU Coolers

    If American technologies really plans on frying the small fish first to make some money and establish precedent and then go after larger companies like Intel then it might be in those larger company's interests to assist the defendants named in the suit.

    Laser Warfare Takes To The High Seas

    "Trying so hard to kill better. People really are stupid." Good thing we don't have laser guided bombs, GPS guided bombs, etc. Then we'd still have to use artillery barrages and massive airstrikes by entire wings of bombers that puts more flight crews, civilians, and square miles of city in...

    High-Tech FAIL of the Day
