    Controversial .Sucks Domain Is Almost Here

    I hate to break it but any company with a trademark in the US will have registration blocking. (Note: I work for a registrar). So during the Sunrise Phase (open only to trademark holders) which comes before the General Availability phase, all those corporate and brand names will be taken...

    'Star Trek' Began Filming 50 Years Ago

    Actually Star Trek didn't air until the 1966 season, as the original pilot "The Cage" didn't air until 1988. So technically the 50th Anniversary is going to be in 2016, which culminates with the release of the new Star Trek 3.

    Netflix Gets More Subscribers But Sees Shares Slide

    Your ISP doesn't have to have any sort of special deal with Netflix to get HD, you just need the bandwidth which anything over 5mbit can handle. Siverlight is also not Netflix, that is Microsoft. It sounds like the issues are on you're end, I have been doing streaming via Netflix for years...

    France Takes on Twitter, Bans the Word 'Hashtag'

    Personally I wish they would stop using the term hashtag for the # symbol. Prior to Twitter the only place that referred to the # as a hash is the UK and Ireland. Everywhere else referred to the # as the Pound Symbol. And I have no clue why Twitter went with "hashtag" and not "pound" since it is...

    Retirement Fund Sues Google Over Stock

    As if 500k worth of voting stock really has no real bearing when shareholder votes come up, that's a drop in the hat compared to most shareholders. Heck, Larry Page and Sergey Brin could buy out their stock with petty cash. And really what do bunch of olde farts want with voter stock, like...

    Man Sues Ubisoft Over Assassin’s Creed

    Also to add, it's just funny how this guy waited till now to sue, and not back in 2006/07 when the game was being developed and first released. When the franchise is at its peak.

    Man Sues Ubisoft Over Assassin’s Creed

    Really? So shitty that it spawned 4 additional games (AC3 is out later this year) on the major platforms and 4 games on handhelds. One of the few games that has a very unique and developed plotline (unlike ::cough:: ME3). Is not a straight up FPS, that actually has goals and a very good...

    Texting FAIL of the Day

    Well the old adage 'You can't walk and chew bubblegum at the same time", should be changed to 'You can't walk and text at the same time'. Cause obviously you can chew gum and walk at the same time.

    eBay Lawsuit of the Day

    This is lame... as a buyer and seller on Ebay I do not feel the seller has any right to know what a buyers maximum willing to pay amount. It's like walking into a car dealership, telling the dealer I am willing to pay $20k for a car. Then the dealer pulling up a car with a sticker price of $15k...

    Hasbro Sues ASUS Over Transformer Name

    Actually you are wrong there... Apple Records and Apple Computers have been fighting in court since the 80's over the Apple name... it wasn't until recently they worked out a deal, which was basically a trade, give use the Apple name, and we will put your music on iTunes (The Beatles), and we...

    Hasbro Sues ASUS Over Transformer Name

    I'll have to side with Hasbro on this one... Asus is using Transformer AND Prime in conjuction with each other in the same product. I can see how this is and issue. Everyone so far is making comments about companies using Prime or Transformer (or even Optimus) as the signal name for a...

    Scientists Predict Possible Ice Increase in Arctic

    First to those that say that with icebergs and the like that have ice above the water level, this is due to buoyancy of the ice due to trapped gases, it actually has little effect on the displacement. A pound of ice is a pound of ice, weather it floats or not. Regardless when the ice melts the...
