You can't use this on iOS without granting Photo permissions, and when you do it automatically uploads all your photos to Dropbox. So this doesn't actually improve the Dropbox photo sharing experience - it demands that your phone&

I don't carry a sign language dictionary with me. The driver might have had one in his car. OR A PEN. PROTIP: COMMUNICATE BY WRITING WITH THE PEN. Edit for clarity: I suppose that I deserve the hate for using caps, but I'm amaze

Yeah, that's more useful. Making them not overlap causes some strange positions, but this organization makes it easy enough to find different tradeoffs. If I want a very large drive, I recognize that it will not be as price efficient,

The sentencing is IMO shameful, but shining a laser into someone's eye is not at all like shining a bright light, and temporarily blinding a driver on a well maintained, well marked road is nothing light blinding an operator of a techn

Why? If the stream is not HDCP (which currently it cannot be by law), then why does Aereo have a special obligation to treat the content as protected? Congress could end this whole debate by allowing broadcast DTV to require HDCP, which the

Optical resolution doesn't follow Moore's law. There will certainly have been improvements, but not like we are accustomed to. Computers can be used to model the atmosphere and attempt to recover resolution, but the returns will d

The problem with the argument against Aereo is that (regardless of the Justice Department's statement) it unravels rental services. Where is the line drawn? Can I not rent a hotel room and watch television in it? Can I not rent a hotel

Week old accounts with no prior comments shouldn't be allowed to use hot button words like "crackpot". They should probably include IP addresses in their comments as well.
