Which is disappointing because ESPN started as seeing a niche that could be filled and exploited (lack of Sports programming for non-major events). It's just what happens when you become overly-bloated and complacent.

Nothing is irreplaceable. At the moment, several would be inconvenient. I use Amazon for shopping, Google for personal email/shared documents, and Microsoft for my work OS / Office suite. It's not saying that these couldn't be replaced, but would be rather annoying to train everyone at work on Linux and to use something other than Excel, I wouldn't have one centralized space to buy stuff - but that is easily remedied. However, iTunes can burn in hell.

Let's just fix this title. Researchers Develop [Smartphone Peripheral] That Accurately Determines Sperm Quality. There we go. Clearly, the companion app for this product is just some basic analysis and display. The real exciting part is an inexpensive peripheral that can do the job at a much lower barrier of entry.

It'll fix every security problem you have!

I feel like it's just a matter of perspective. The watch market as whole has never really been as significant as the phone or PC market, thus comparing the apples watch compared to iPhone or Mac sales makes it look like a failure, but within it's sector it is a strong competitor. It certainly hasn't take then world by storm the way that the iPad and iPhone have been able to, but at least hast been a strong contender for watches. So I'd say the watch has been a viable product, but no great success.

Like so many of the kickstarters that blow up like this, they cannot scale at the price point they've set. When you a set a price you have to consider all of the R&D, Production Startup, Import and still leave room in for delays. Many times it's better to just make a few boutique items for people who really want your product, than to price it for the masses and it quickly becomes unrealistic. There's a reason drones of this type were quite a bit more expensive than the lily (especially the early backer price).

A company holding back and delaying release in order to no put out a half baked product??? Madness!

I'm not really surprised, since the videos are not monetized. Youtube has to pay content creators so if they inflate viewership, it costs them money. On Facebook, it allows them to show striking numbers, gain publicity, and try and leverage their platform.

Not to mention, how would you know which was better? Clearly the iPhone 7 will be 1 better than the 6... just as will be the iPhone 2001 will be 1 better than the iPhone 2000

Why would they release the 8 next year? In recent years, they've do iPhone #S on the alternating years where they keep the same basic design but improve the internals a bit. I think you'll probably have to wait another year for the 8.

The problem that I see is that good commentary creates the narrative of the game. Sports has not actual intrinsic stakes for most fans (short of a few bets here and there), but the commentators and news sources allow for us to be fed a narrative of how much the underdogs have overcome by strength of will to make it this point, etc etc. I question the current AI's ability to do this coherently and not just report who won and what happened. Because in general, that's rather uninteresting.

This from BlackBerry advertising: Detect.. Detek... Dtek, get it guys? Can we be relevant again? Please?

Of course not, but I'm saying if your login account is Jon.Doe1975@gmail.com with an IP in Generic Small Town, Kentucky. There's a good chance the account owner is most likely the 40 something year old guy named John Doe that lives in that town. That doesn't mean the person using it was that person, but generally that is the case. Not something that holds up in court, but is useful for social engineering.

I would say the IP address along with the other information provided (Since usernames, emails, and passwords can contain very important information like DOB, Nickname, and name) helps you narrow down to a specific person. Just an IP cannot really tell you a user, but an IP with other information can.

What? A list of 300 poorly named .mpeg files in a single network directory isn't good enough for ya?!?
