Navajo Nation to Lose Internet Signal
I would post something about the above link but the information contained in it will go away in 15 days because it is an Associated Press feed and the copyright statement that they use on every one of their stories that I have copied and pasted below says I can’t.

You’d think that by now they would see it would benefit them to use a less restrictive license so folks would point to and talk about their stories but I guess when the company is run by the bean counters the bottom line is everything.
Anyway to get to the point of this too long gripe, because of this I don’t and won’t post any links to any story by the AP.

Audio: Basis Audio’s $150,000 Turntable – Gizmodo
Some things make sense, others like this turntable don’t. Not saying that it’s not interesting and I’m sure that it sounds really good and all but really…
Man’s Best Friend: ‘The Device’ – All-In-One Beer Making Machine – Gizmodo
It looks impressive and from the article was rather expensive to build but I personally don’t see wasting all the time and energy on something that is gonna have to be taken apart and cleaned on a regular basis. Or maybe there is an auto clean function here that I missed. Whatever turns their cranks and knobs…
