We really don't know what to say. We're sorry? That just doesn't seem to cut it. Maybe these captions will bring a small semblance of comprehension to this screwed-up reality we now find ourselves in. Please add your own in the comments, we can get through this together.

Josh: "The Robocop program had seen drastic budget cuts in recent years."
Chris: "iFixIt's teardown of ASIMO revealed what many had suspected all along: it's just a naked white dude with a motherboard duct taped to him." and "Please don't play Crysis - the GPU is like RIGHT on my nipple."
Joe: "Mobile computing means different things to different people."
Paul: "There are lots of great ways to stay warm this winter. This one is lame."
Richard: "Unfortunately, Jim slightly misread the TSA's new less-annoying laptop bag rules."
Darren: "Um, no -- those aren't mathematical equations written on my bedroom wall..."
Laura: "Gaultier proves, once again, that pants are extraneous."
Don: "Hello, Starbucks? Do you let folks use your power outlets? Great."
Nilay: "It's the liquid-cooling system I'm most proud of."
Thomas: "Hey ladies, watch what happens when I hit the defrag button."

["Thanks," sgt_easton]

The Lennox SunSource Energy System Uses The Sun for Heating and Cooling

Posted by blogs@bobvila.com (Ben) on under home heating and cooling, hd ready, residential heating, central ac, subpanel, ready tv, energy system, sunsource, cooling system, solar panel, home energy, solar panels, new central heating, lennox, heat pump, heating and cooling, sun |

In the market for a new central heating or cooling system? Why not by one that is "solar ready?" Like an HD-ready TV, Lennox's "SunSource Home Energy System" is a residential heating and cooling system ready to be run off solar panel modules. On it's own the unit--either central AC or a heat pump--operates (and costs about) the same as any central heating and cooling system. But package the solar panels and solar subpanel together and you've got a home heating and cooling system ...

Engadget: Quantum refrigerator could cool your quantum computer, allow for quantum overclocking

Quantum refrigerator could cool your quantum computer, allow for quantum overclocking
The quantum computer is still ranking pretty high up there on the vaporware charts, somewhere between Duke Nukem Forever and a Steorn in-home power generator. Eventually we'll get there, and theoretical physicists at the University of Bristol are helping with a quantum cooling system. It is effectively a means for two qubits to cool a third, with the outer two cooled by lasers and absorbing energy from the third, which is heated to its excited state. Unsurprisingly this is all rather theoretical at this point, but the team does plan to actually such a quantum refrigerator in the not too distant future. Then, we figure, they'll host the first quantum kegger.
