Where is Jason Bourne when we need him?

What happens when an ultimatum is given and Russia does decide to do something? “also be remembered that there have been ultimatums at all bases, including the one I was inside at …

I use Trillian and avoid going to FB.

You missed the part where the idiot got served. He's lucky he didn't get any charges besides his unpaid parking tickets. Next time, let's see how the cops react when he points a "c…

The last data I had seen (when I'd voted), had Miley Cyrus ahead by millions of votes. When did Snowden jump ahead? Was that 4chan "to the rescue"?

What do you mean by "never need the Inquisition"? The CIA/DIA/NSA Inquisition has been happening 24x7 for years now; we just haven't been privy to it.

Try this... version 13 of software... 13th rc release... on the 13th... in 2013.

What part of "Science Friday" is not Hacker/Science-y enough?

I tried the HD prototype at Unite 2013 and it looks really really good. Just look for the video of RogueCraft and you'll see text appear just fine.

If I recall the history correctly, it wasn't the subsidies as much as it was the tariffs on sugars. The state (of being) that US farmers are in isn't what it used to be.

I disagree with the assertions made by cuttooth. I have two 12 year old cousins who are very interested to get into video game development. They have some great ideas and are think…

Canadian here: Electrical bill of $60-80 every two months in a 600sqft condo on the third floor of a west by south west facing unit. It's also possible to rent a room or small base…
