Also, don't visit the links in the image or the top comment. Apparently, the "joke" is that redirect is to a search query on fbi.gov and involves committing a felony.

I really take issue with this title and the general attitude it stems from. Advising everyone in a certain group of people to take any kind of drug should be frowned upon in my opinion. The fact that we are talking about a Schedule I substa

In some cases, (command line) Perl will actually process piped text faster than awk or even sed. I'm not sure about arithmetic though.

This article doesn't really tell us much about the FBI's involvement other than they arrested him.

Slightly off topic: Why does Chrome, when the registration page includes both email and username fields, only remember the email but then insert it into the username field when you attempt to log in? I know some sites let you use the two in

Seriously misleading title. It seems to me that this particular experiment did not prove that "anyone could make a nuclear bomb". Rather, it demonstrated that a group of highly-educated physicists, when provided with the necessary resourc

With some videos, a bit of context is helpful, but I don't think it was in this case; the text didn't give us much more info than the title. I think Chris Hadfield's videos with the CSA are pretty well-known by now (I have seen several on H

A bit off topic, but I really feel like this type of "article" adds absolutely nothing to the video. I'd prefer to be linked directly to the video rather than give away a pageview to an entity that isn't even producing its own content.

IIRC there was a man in (I believe) Austria who recently got arrested for this exact reason and he was trying to scrounge up enough in donations to pay for his legal fees. Edit: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2012/11/tor-operator-char.
