Taco Bell Knows Their Market
This is an actual exchange that occurred on Twitter yesterday. I wouldn’t eat Taco Bell tacos if you gave them to me but this is still incredibly awesome.
MegaUpload Trial Unlikely, Kim Dotcom Furious
United States federal judge Liam O’Grady said during a hearing today that he doesn’t think the federal government’s case against MegaUpload will ever be tried in court – because the FBI can’t serve site owner Kim Dotcom with court papers since he lives in New Zealand.
Considering that it was completely fucking absurd that Dotcom’s residence was raided by a law enforcement branch from the United States to begin with, this comes as no surprise. That hasn’t stopped Mr. Dotcom from lashing out over the matter, regardless.

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse
This is what Bugatti’s new $2.3 million car looks like.
The Grand Sport Vitesse runs on an absolutely massive 1,200hp 16-cylinder engine. It can do 0 to 60mph in a mere 2.6 seconds and tops out at a ridiculous 255mph.
Oklahoma Grandmother Busted For Being Marijuana Kingpin
Darlene Mayes, 73, was arrested by police in Oklahoma this week after they identified her as the leader of a giant marijuana distribution ring that spanned four states.
Authorities say they found four pounds of pot, a semiautomatic pistol, a revolver, and a total of $276,000 in cash after executing a raid on Mayes’ home in rural Craig County.
Mayes is said to have supplied up to 40% of the marijuana in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri. Police tracked her for years. They finally identified her this past Monday.
U.S. Judge Rules In Favor of MegaUpload
A judge in Virginia ruled against the Department of Justice yesterday, ordering the agency to work with the operators of MegaUpload to give more than 60 million users access to files that have otherwise been held since the site was raided back in January.
Between this and the ruling regarding the seizure of the site last month, it’s looking better and better for Kim Dotcom and his team. At this rate, they may even be back someday.
The $35,000 Computer Monitor
The Eizo DuraVision FDH3601 is a $35,000 desktop monitor featuring a 4,096×2,160 pixel resolution across a 36.4″ screen, a 16-bit lookup table supporting up to 278 trillion colors, a maximum brightness of 700 cd/m2, a contrast ratio of 1,000:1, and a response time of 8ms.
4,096×2,160 pixel resolution. That’s the equivalent of four 1080p displays.
Bethesda Adding Kinect Support to Skyrim
I was on the fence about buying a Kinect. Until now. This alone has me completely sold.
