I know this is exceedingly rare for people discussing Star Wars, but I am in complete agreement. I hadn't seen the prequels since they originally came out, but I recently showed them to my kids, and found them even worse than I'd remembered.
Of all the many things to be unhappy with, I'd say the...
That's terrifying. It is clear now Skynet will be built inside Epcot. Wait, did Disney buy James Cameron, too? If so, 2021 release for series reboot, Terminator: Mouse Trap.
It's not just you. The "Bro-Country" invasion and movement towards mainstream pop makes it difficult to determine which genre of radio station you're listening to anymore, much less tell any of the "artists" apart. I went about a decade thinking I didn't like country music any longer, and it...
Thank you for posting the only comment in this entire thread worth reading. The rest fall somewhere between hang him from his toenails to hug him, it's all those thug cops. Your analysis is spot on, and I hope to see more rational discourse like this from others.
Swearing in a news story? How can you! It's almost Christmas! I'm going to go watch a Hallmark movie about people learning to love again, and something with a dog.
But seriously, that's terrible about your kids and the cult. I sincerely hope you are able to turn things around. Don't let the...
If folks here don't recognize the SCPA as the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, they may be missing the most remarkable part of this. (I saw "SCPA campus in San Francisco" and assumed it was some kind of junior college or something.)
Too bad all these homeless folks aren't...
I haven't had a chance to watch the trailer yet, but I really enjoyed the book. This super rich Steve Jobs guy is dying, and leaves his fortune to the person who can nerd out the hardest on the 80's pop culture scavenger hunt. Also some commentary on what people will be good for after robots...
Wonder if that's in response to Google pulling YouTube from Amazon Fire TV? I'm sure this isn't something they'd just do from scratch overnight, but the timing seems like quite a coincidence.
Take that, robots! After all those jobs they stole from humans; how's it feel to be on the receiving end?
Now, how long before light becomes self aware?

Far be it from me to underestimate a giant corporation's capacity for shady B.S., but there may be a less nefarious explanation. The Wired story I linked talks about improving emergency messages sent to peoples' phones. Currently, the 911...
Just when it looked like midrange GPU prices might return to something resembling normalcy in time for a Christmas upgrade. You'd think Intel would start their own currency that's CPU dependent, to start their own gold rush.
I thought it was worth pointing out that in the 16 hours the error went seemingly without notice we managed to politicize this issue without even reading the article. I think that's a good example of "what's wrong with the world today," and not unique to [H]. It seems checking the facts before...
Since the link on this post is incorrect, I'd also guess a large percentage of [H]ers comment without reading the article.

Look at all the knee-jerk reactions! When it comes to scientific studies, always read the article instead of just the overly simplified title. From the article:
"West pointed to the inclusion of GPS and way-finding markers in many current action games as examples of potentially problematic...
Come on now, this is NASA. They aren't out to get you. They're not the FCC.
As someone who has been looking at those glasses, I am glad they do have some sort of certification. Eye protection is not something to guess on. I would hate to be responsible for ordering a few thousand pairs for kids...
I have heard from all the cool mining kids that these cards are the bee's knees and the cat's pajamas. I've heard ROI is about 3 days, and the fans at full load are so quiet, they put out - 20 db. I sure hope everyone doesn't snatch these little wonders all up before I can get a couple dozen...
People arebless likely to lie while in a bar than online? Have you ever been to a bar? Oh, the tales you'll hear. Also, if you spend enough time in a bar, you'll almost certainly end up in court, either as a witness or defendant.
I somewhat agree with with you on oversharing and the possibility...
One has to wonder how an average person accumulates nearly a billion won in debt. I'd think there'd be a cut off point, where they quit extending you credit. Although, that may be how he ended up in the wheelchair to begin with.
But, according to the article, he was not fined for testimony in court to dispute his wife's ticket. This all stems from an email he sent saying, "I had this thought. As an engineer, I looked into it, and here's the math showing my work. Do what you will with it." It's not like he presented...
As in, on paper you aren't required to do any deliveries, but if you don't, you start noticing your hours keep getting cut back, and you get passed over for every promotion...
I find it hard to believe they could classify them as independent contractors for only the delivery portion of their...
On one hand, I can see the benefits. This is a lot more realistic than Amazon's drone delivery, in terms of months before it's ready for nationwide deployment rather than years. This could be a $ bonus for the employees, who may already be driving for Uber or some other side hustle, and a simple...
