Elon still owns the Twitter trademark, and can sue if anyone tries to use it.

I could see a fancy outdoorsy type of coffee maker being able to boil water. Collect your water from the river, boil it, and make some coffee.

Now I'm curious. Would this actually work? Just how hot does that heating plate get?

I think Mr Burns had some pretty good ideas.

Just randomly wake up during your surgery and say it, and then promptly go back to sleep.

I'm convinced that Reddit themselves are either behind those bots, or are deliberately looking the other way. Those bots posting and commenting make the site look more active than it actually is.

I'd love to see Descent get remastered.

If web developers took the time to specify the size of images in their code, then the browser would make room for those items ahead of time and people wouldn't have to deal with text shifting.

Spoilers in the titles, descriptions, and thumbnails of TV series. Looking at you, Plex.

I always liked the way Crysis did it. Hold down the middle mouse button and drag your mouse towards the option you want.

Wouldn't work because if you live in an apartment, then your neighbors are going to skew the numbers. There's no way for them to know if the guy who lives on the floor above you is in your apartment or theirs.

There used to be a video store near me that had a 444 deal. You could rent four movies for four days for four dollars.

The number of service workers who got physically assaulted or even killed for telling people to wear masks was pretty telling.

But don't you dare inquire about the location of Elon's jet.

My dad used to do that shit all the time. He would just assume that every letter was for him and wouldn't read the recipient's name.

I say folder when I'm in the GUI file manager, and I say directory when I'm in the terminal.

And they give you the option to create a new folder, not a directory.

JILL, HERE'S A LOCKPICK. IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL IF YOU, THE MASTER OF UNLOCKING, TAKE IT WITH YOU.

He was also right about not supporting Flash on the iPhone. People wanted to crucify him for that, but better video and web standards came about because of it, and we're all better off living in a world without Flash.

I know people that can't use Windows to save their life, but if you put DOS in front of them, it's like something clicks in their brains and they suddenly remember how to type.
