    Uber Says No Guns In Cars

    Why would I even care of the DRIVER is carrying? I rather carry and I do. The driver has ZERO responsibility for my protection regardless if they are carrying or not.

    The Latest Numbers Suggest Netflix Really Is Killing Traditional TV

    Cut the cable TV cord. I've been using a traditional OTA to get free HD broadcasts for about a year now. Unfortunately, Comcast has me by the balls when it comes to internet and they know it. There is NO other ISP in my area. None, nada, zip. I pay $67/month for 20mbs down and 4mbs up.

    Georgia Car Dealers Want Tesla Store Shut Down

    Dealership are complaining because they are tied with manufacturers. You cannot just buy a Ford, or Toyota, right from the manufacturer floor. You HAVE to have a middle man, the dealership. It's screwy, but it's the current law. The other dealerships would have NO problem if Tesla had to...

    Elder Scrolls Online Hit With Layoffs

    Problem I found with TES is that it did nothing to separate itself from the 100's of other generic MMOs out there. I don't know, nothing really stood out.

    Dead Island 2 Official Trailer Released

    Microsoft: More Must Be Done With PC Gaming

    Comcast Plans Data Caps For All Customers

    I really hate Comcast. When they did the install to my house, they snipped the coax cables that ran into my other rooms that did not have a TV, and snipped the coax leading to my OTA antenna. Then they stole my 4 input grounding block, and replaced it with a single. When I switched back to...

    20% of Hulu and Netflix Subscribers Have Cut the Cord

    I'm cutting the cord to cable tv (Comcast). I just purchased an OTA Antenna. Unfortunately, Comcast/Xfinity decided to SNIP all the cable ends to my other rooms in my house when they did the initial install, even after I labeled them. Just a rant, but I can't believe they did that. I had to buy...

    Teen Charged In 'Heartbleed' Attack On Tax Agency

    Heh. Living 80 miles from Mexico's border, I actually know a lot of people that go south for dental and cancer treatment because it's cheaper. They actually have good dentists with state-of-the-art equipment. They can do anything from simple cleanings, fillings, root-canals, partials and...

    Infants 'Unable To Use Toy Blocks' Due To iPad Addiction

    As a 42 year old, watching young people raise children, I've seen the decline of creativity in young children. As a disclaimer, this is just anecdotal of what I see. Technology has laid out what they should see in their mind's eye right out in front of them with no effort. Creativity leads...

    Titanfall - Respawn Entertainment's first game

    I received the game as a birthday gift. So far, I'm having a lot of fun with it. I love the map designs even though they seem small. It's a fast run-and-gun game that I can pick up and play without investing a lot of time. A couple of gripes: I'm only level 17, but it seems the only weapon...

    Facebook Cracking Down on Illegal Gun Sales

    Actually, if you have ever fired a firearm, especially a pistol, you'd know that hitting a moving target beyond 5 yards is hard. A firearm is a force multiplier. I can easily run down an unarmed woman with a knife. It's harder for me to run down a woman who is wielding a firearm.

    Walmart Building Distribution Centers to Compete with Amazon

    I like it because of Walmart's super easy return policy. If I change my mind, or the product isn't as described, I can simply drive to my local walmart and return it for a full refund, rather than try to pay shipping charges back, getting an RMA#, etc.

    US Army Considers Replacing Thousands of Troops With Robots

    I meant to add, and this is just MY GUESS, is that the first robot soldiers would be akin to suicide bombers. Basically, a little tough track or all-terrain robot with cameras that can go in and self-detonate. Basically, clearing a very hostile area effectively and with precision.

    US Army Considers Replacing Thousands of Troops With Robots

    Long term saving costs would be huge. One of the big costs to the armed services is for pensions and long term care after service. Unless there was some quantum leap in AI, robots will be still controlled by soldiers, (hopefully soldiers with a conscience) much like drones have replaced...

    McDonald's Pulls Website After Another McScrew-Up

    Really, the only thing unhealthy about fast food is the amount of calories it packs into a small meal. The second thing is that it's nutritionally light (very few micro nutrients). A Big Mac alone is 550 calories. A double Quarter Pounder w/ Cheese = 750 calories. Sugars are nothing but...

    What the Hell Is Wrong With Nintendo?

    I blame marketing. Of the people I know who love the Wii, they didn't even know there was a WiiU even after release. THey are not the type of gamers that visit game sites/forums, or actively seek game information on the latest and greatest. They are casual gamers. The first WiiU commercial on...

    Guild Wars 2 for 40% off one day only.

    That's because they finished it in 3 days casually playing it. Loved the game, but glad I bought it for $10. Way too short. Back on topic, played GW2 for 4 solid months. Best $60 I spent. Thinking about going back, and what's great is I can jump back anytime without spending a dime more.
