FLIR One saves 4 baby birds. Last spring I was mowing a field with a tractor & bush hog when this sandpiper started screaming its head off right next to the tractor. I knew it must have a nest somewhere nearby so I stopped and started looking for it. No dice. Then I thought about my FLIR...

Why does it seem wrong when they have been found guilty by a jury and have to pay? They've had their justice. And this $50 million isn't going to the plaintiff, it's going to a bank while an appeal takes place. If they lose again the $50 mil (and more) goes to the plaintiff; if they win they get...

No, you're not. I was about to post the same thing, which I usually do when I read about yet another new battery technology. It's been going on for years. And yet all we ever see is a small incremental increase in battery capacity or whatever. I'll believe it when I can buy one, if I can afford it.

This study from NIH, which shows that propylene glycol is effective in killing various forms of bacteria and virus, would indicate that she's getting some benefit from it. I used to get 1 or 2 colds per year, but since I started vaping I've had one minor cold in the past 5 years. The government...

Bingo

This reminds me of an adventure back in '89 when I was a PI. (This comment semi off-topic.) We had this client whose wife was cheating on him. Thing is, he was cheating on her too. He'd tell his wife, "My PI is watching you!" and she'd say, "Well, so is mine!". It made it nearly impossible to...

"It shouldn't take this kind of effort, but I typically do it once and don't touch it again until I reformat..." "until I reformat..." LOL! SOP, huh?

I guess now Kia will feel free to make a replica of the Ford Mustang ("ECO" boost and all - or whatever they call it), except of course for their logo.

Who thinks that within a few hundred years (at most) that the human race will still be using radio waves for communication? Go to the year 2314 and read up on radio -- it will be like us reading about how the native americans used smoke signals to send messages. That's why we don't hear...

So, if Samsung would drop the price by $100 down to $200, the author could "put up" with its "awkward design". Spoken like a true Samsung fan.

For me, StarTrek: Enterprise was the best series of the lot, by far. And T'pol got a 9, where Troi got a 7.

"The back camera uses HTC's "ultrapixel" technology, though, which trades off megapixel count for larger, more light-absorbing pixels." Now where have I heard of this before? It was a couple of years ago I think.

I wouldn't get into using bit coins even if it were the only currency on the planet.

"Chief Experience Officer" Made me laugh out loud. Seriously, what company on earth other than Microsoft could dream up a title like that?

What? Slashdot is relevant??? LOL!! The commenters there are really on the fringe. Hardly an unbiased, level-headed thinker on that site.

The proposed law also has the provision that the capability to be killed remotely can be disabled by the owner.

I just did the best update possible. Deleted it from my system entirely.

This means that Apple can sue anyone who bought a Samsung device that was ruled as infringing on an Apple patent. Right?

Apple, without a doubt, is going belly up soon. I keep reading that in the internet, so it must be true.

My first was a Southwest Technical Products hand-built computer (MY hand) with a whopping 8k of RAM. First program was tic-tac-toe, hand coded in assembly language and entered one byte at a time, in hex. Later on, when I got my cassette drives and assembler, I built an interface using 2 D/A...
