Similar to other previously mentioned BitTorrent aggregators like PizzaTorrent and Speckly, Usniff can filter through search results to refine your search. The coolest thing Usniff has going for it is advanced search operators, like exclusion with the '-' (minus) operator. It also allows you to disable ...

It's going to be hard to watch the political conventions after the Olympics. We'll have to switch from events with real drama and results to pageantry with neither. This is the political equivalent of hours of Michael Phelps celebrations with no actual swimming. Plus, there's the fakery. The crowd shot of the audience at the GOP convention may look racially and ethnically diverse, but we know the party is less so. Barack Obama may promise ...

The Crystal Ball: "While no election outcome is guaranteed and McCain's prospects could improve over the next three and a half months, virtually all of the evidence that we have reviewed -- historical patterns, structural features of this election cycle, and national and state polls conducted over the last several months -- point to a comfortable Obama/Democratic party victory in November. Trumpeting this race as a toss-up, almost certain to produce another nail-biter finish, distorts ...

By Luke Anderson Keyboards are gross and disgusting. Just think about the number of things your hands come into contact with every day. Now imagine how long you spend with your fingers on that keyboard in front of your computer. Finally, think back to the last time you actually cleaned your keyboard. Yea, that’s pretty freaking gross, and unless you have a dishwasher-safe keyboard, they aren’t very easy to clean. However, this Cyber Clean could ...

Monster Cable has a long history of abusing trademark law to threaten and/or sue pretty much any company that uses the name "Monster" in its brand. That has included the TV show Monster Garage, a clothing store called MonsterVintage, Disney for the movie Monsters, Inc., the makers of Monster Energy drink, the Chicago Bears for having the nickname "Monsters of the Midway," and the Boston Red Sox for offering "Monster seats" on top of their ...

Yes, it is obviously a comedy sketch meant as a play on the popularity of "Guitar Hero," hrmph, yes, quite. For those who know little of bagpipes and bagpipe music, I'm sure you'll be gettin' a right good giggle. But in my house laddie, where you live with a real bagpipe hero, it's a game that would be bought in 3 nanoseconds if it existed. Honestly though, with Wii Music featuring bagpipes, we are one ...

As far as I can tell, the Associated Press is sticking by its ridiculous and unlawful assertion that “direct quotations, even short ones” are copyright infringements and result in lawsuit threats and DMCA takedown notices. This story led us to ban the A.P., call the New York Times out on undisclosed conflicts of interest and begin to investigate some ridiculous organization called the Media Bloggers Association before getting bored and wandering off to other topics. ...

Hang on just a minute. Something's not right. The Cards lost last night? They lost the series? They aren't supposed to do that! They were supposed to win the next two and keep the pattern going. Instead, they lost a series for the first time since the Pittsburgh series May 13-15. They've only lost four series all year, which is pretty impressive for this team as well. I don't believe what I just saw.I've never ...
