Thanks for the links. I think, "Stay away from gizmodo, it rots your brain." is going a bit too far in this case. I know there's been a lot of talk about "linkbait" titles, but this one was clearly for fun/humour value. The whole article was tongue in cheek ("Spaceship-shaped"). I don't believe anyone on HN would actually read this article headline and believe alien spaceships were on their way (not with only 23 upvotes!).
