    Hackers Use Stolen Credentials from Data Breaches to "Hack" a Nest Thermostat

    Fundamental to who? You and I on this tech site. Absolutely. Average Joe who can't even seem to figure out they have no audio because the mute was checked in windows. I don't think so. Someone above said they write theirs down in a notebook and leave by PC. That's nice, but most of these...

    California Lawmaker Wants to Move toward E-receipts

    How do I check my receipt immediately to make sure I am not overcharged???? Oh that's right I cannot. Why should I have to set up a junk email address, (I already have one), just to view my receipt. More BS. Oh what about rebates? Need an original receipt. Oh what if I do find an error so...

    Picard Will Lead "Radically Altered" Life in New Star Trek Series

    If I am not mistaken did they not find many pieces of data's "brother" and had them all assembled before data was killed in Nemesis. I am almost 100% positive of that. My question is why does Data or Data's brother have gray hair.

    Google Chrome's New UI Is Ugly, and People Are Very Angry

    Amen brother amen. We are in total agreement. Every time I go to a web page I feel like the designer thinks I am 4 years old and I can't read anything but big text on a white background. There is no, and I repeat no, intuitiveness in any mobile design. It is like they forgot how to design a...

    Windows 10 Version 1809 Is Getting a Re-Release Today

    I don't think people are expressing they want truly excellent. Windows 7 was far beyond excellent, but it was extremely good. It had quite a few bugs itself, but it is far superior an OS over the crap Microsoft pushes today. Every update is filled with new features while other features remain...

    Robots Replace Waiters at the 'Robot.He' Restaurant in Shanghai

    Well I have waited and 3 of my 4 daughters have. Skill is not the word I would use. Attentive, courteous, friendly, and personable, but there is no skill involved unless you count carrying food a skill. And it is not. Even if they can carry 8 plates at a time. I am not saying the work is...

    Nintendo And Microsoft Are Rubbing Sony's Face In It

    Yes it does. Sony only locks the Fortnite account down so you can't go into another system, AKA XBOX, and log in with your Playstation Fortnite Account. Still shitty but Sony is not disallowing crossplay.

    Theaters Add Strobe Light Warning to “Incredibles 2” after Epilepsy Concerns

    Wow this is both so wrong it is funny and correct. "They should just not put this shit in the movies to begin with." is wrong. It is up to an individual to know what they can watch or not. A warning is fine, but if we remove all instances that harm any single person or group from our every...

    Self-Driving Uber Car Kills Arizona Pedestrian

    From Wiki (Overall, there were an estimated 263.6 million registered passenger vehicles in the United States in 2015. This number, along with the average age of vehicles, has increased steadily since 1960.) Let's stick 263.6 million autonomous cars on the road and see how much difference there...

    GPU Prices Skyrocket, Breaking the Entire DIY PC Market

    My son and I finished hi rig in December. Got a 6GB Geforce 1060 for 285. That same card is now 499 so basically almost double in 5 weeks or so. This is nuts.

    Tesla Autopilot One Again Proves Crumple Zones Work

    Some here are living in a fantasy world. I have a cell phone that can't auto-correct what I type correctly. I have an OS that cannot give updates without borking a bunch of PCs. I have software that is production release quality that crashes all the time. I have voice recognition in my car...

    Google's Fast Pair - Effortless Bluetooth Pairing for Android

    Arrogant aren't we? Some people may not want to charge a set of ear buds. I don't. Besides sound quality from earbuds is awful and then pair that up with bluetooth and the sound quality is even worse, but hey, this new teknologee roks. Not to mention it is very possibrl to lose one earbud...

    Microsoft's August Patch Tuesday Fixes 48 Security Issues

    Most people aren't smart enough to know it's a POS OS. They just use it because there is really no other option for them. Fortunately there are those of us smart enough to know better.

    T-Mobile DIGITS Unchains Your Phone Numbers, Brings Multi-Device Freedom May 31

    I have 7 lines and with my company discount I only pay 132 a month, however it is not unlimited data, only 2.5 GB as we rarely use Mobile Data. Wifi FTW.

    Tesla Starts Pre-Orders on Solar Roof for $1,000, Rolls out Calculator for Costs

    I want the electric bills some of you have. My house is 3800 SQ feet, 2 stories with 2 central air units and in Indiana when it gets hot my electric bill tops 400 a month and in the winter when my gas furnaces kick in (2 of them also) it still tops 150 a month. As for the Tesla shingles I will...
