I've been using OneDrive on multiple Macs and have not encountered the pegged CPU. It seems to be a bit better than the Windows client, which takes ages to transfer a file to the local drive.

That was designed in the '60s by a prolific aircraft designer. It was quite a different time.

They tend to let things linger and die rather than keeping them up or improve them. I had Sprint as a local phone company and DSL ISP in the early to mid-2000s. The other options in this small town were cable, but with a dial-up uplink or

I rarely check my phone. I would like a tough phone to carry for emergencies while hiking. I couldn't completely switch because there is no way I am typing out a text with a phone keypad. That is the main reason I resisted getting a ce

The people making comments about killing the engine is a monumentally bad idea. If the car has a conventional key ignition, turning the key even to the accessory position can engage the steering wheel lock. Without a running engine, you cou

How about AOL stop whining about paying for medical care, and stop employing "digital prophets"? Perhaps then they could afford both the insurance costs and 401(k)s. http://www.uproxx.com/technology/2014/

The Honeywell thermostats are legitimately terrible. I've had a 8000-series for a couple years.

I have absolutely no problem with paying money to the government so damn near everybody can get decent internet service if they want it. Corporations have shown over and over that they are unwilling and actively hostile towards that idea. T

Its 2013. Why the fuck do you care what other people use? I'm suprised you didn't break out the 'Micro$haft Winblows!!', or are you saving that for later? Sent from OS/2

Come to the Barnett Shale, and see how it isn't good, either. You can't drink it, and we're losing our aquifers to contamination from drilling, fracking, and the waste water injection wells.

Two months is an awfully short research project. Guess with results like the Kin, they saw the writing on the wall. Microsoft should have told Verizon they were just testing the waters.

I'll expect you to make the same comment on posts that claim to want to "change the world". This is an actual world changing event, not some marketing bullshit.

What? Did you miss the whole Apollo program? That was a government program. There are few things that come close to the innovation achieved in that program. Yes, there were private industry contractors. But it would not happened without the

I think AT&T has a database of IMEIs of known US smartphones. You used to be able to get around the scans with an imported Nokia, for example. I used to have a Nokia X6 that never got picked up for the two years I used it.
