    Your iPhone Uses More Energy Than A Refrigerator

    What about the coffee makers in the break rooms of the datacenters where the cloud servers run? *rolls eyes* When calculating the power required by the refrigerator, did they include all the power required to mine / transform raw materials, all the power required to run the factories and...

    Your iPhone Uses More Energy Than A Refrigerator

    This report was bought to generate some hysterical-grade headlines in hopes of advertising a clean coal consortium. It doesn't add up at all, because to imagine that the iPhone "uses more electricity," they added up all the use of the datacenters in the US, divided by number of smartphones...

    "OK Glass" Was Almost "Pew Pew Pew"

    Unfortunately, the current state (according to some online reviews) is that Glass is currently locked in at a fairly strict level of SafeSearch. Even basic anatomical terms for sex organs are returning little to no results.

    Cool Custom Skateboard PC Build

    Thanks for the kind words... I wanted to say, 1) It doesn't look anything like a toilet, and if you think pic 6 looks like a toilet/urinal, maybe you just have to go? :) and 2) It can't hold a large amount of weight.
