    Tech Workers Worry about Age Discrimination at Age 40

    Older workers have usually been in the industry longer and generally make considerably more than others. That's one of the reasons they are first to get the axe when a company is trying to save money.

    Samsung Galaxy S7 Camera Glass Shatters Mysteriously

    I have an S7 edge. I honestly don't see how this could physically "just" happen. I think the only way I could reproduce this type of damage would be to smash it or heat the lens up and quench it in ice water. Both would be stupid.

    If A Self-Driving Car Kills A Pedestrian, Who Is At Fault?

    I've seen how people drive nowadays. The less American motorists are actively involved in the process the safer the streets will be as far as I'm concerned. Biggest Spike in Traffic Deaths in 50 Years? Blame Apps

    First UPS U.S. Delivery eBike Debuts In Portland, Oregon

    Elon Musk’s Latest Plan Is To Dig Underground Tunnels To Avoid Traffic Jams

    Maybe he should concentrate on something that actually makes a difference with traffic congestion, like mass transit. I mean, 40,000 people dying on our roads every year is fun and all, but it's getting rather old.

    First UPS U.S. Delivery eBike Debuts In Portland, Oregon

    People act like it's a fucking hate crime if some motorist gets slightly inconvenienced, sometimes. It's hilarious watching people who just move here lose their minds when they realize they can't do 15 miles over the speed limit whenever they want to anymore.

    Too little, too late. I can sympathize with 'Hello Games', though. The pressure 'Sony' was putting on them to release the product (finished or not), must have been frustrating to say the least. I'm glad they are still actively trying to deliver the game they promised, even if it ends up...

    Apple Acknowledges iOS 10 Security Flaw

    Doesn't affect iCloud backups this time, so I guess there won't be a Fappening 2.0 any time soon. But I recall that actually had more to with Apple's joke of a "forgot your password?" system at the time, now that I think about it. :cry:
