Even though this whole thing is total B.S., it's hard not to laugh when you get to the part where the guy says "They just came and took my ball away. That's being a bully."
An Internet entrepreneur and former Wall Street derivatives analyst contends central Idaho's Sun Valley resort and the Twitter Inc. social media site heisted his handle. Leonard Barshack, who in the 1990s founded the Internet email listing service Bigfoot, is suing Twitter and the Sun Valley Co., demanding they return the handle "SunValley."
If this doesn't qualify as the Must See Video of the Day, I honestly don't know what does.

From the initial unpacking, it is obvious that MSI squarely targeted this board at gamers and enthusiasts. Its appealing black and red color scheme and dragon branding is just the tip of the iceberg.

Apple posted a sixteen page document (scroll down to "additional information") outlining the company's tax plan that it will present to congress tomorrow. Among other things, Apple plans to inform congress of the extraordinary amount of money it pays every year in taxes:
Apple is likely the largest corporate income tax payer in the US, having paid nearly $6 billion in taxes to the US Treasury in FY2012. These payments account for $1 in every $40 in corporate income tax the US Treasury collected last year. The Company’s FY2012 total US federal cash effective tax rate was approximately 30.5%.1 The Company expects to pay over $7 billion in taxes to the US Treasury in its current fiscal year. In accordance with US law, Apple pays US corporate income taxes on the profits earned from its sales in the US and on the investment income of its Controlled Foreign Corporations ("CFCs"), including the investment earnings of its Irish subsidiary, Apple Operations International ("AOI").
The Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 case is on the test bench at Benchmark Reviews today. Overall, the reviewer seemed to really like the case. Here's a quote from the full review:
If you research a little about Fractal Design, you'll discover that "Design" in their name is not an accident. They've set out to "provide products with an extraordinary design level" using a "less-is-more" philosophy. With that in mind they've made some revisions to their Arc Midi enclosure, resulting in the new Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 computer case.
Would anyone here use a video streaming service from Target? I like the store just fine, I just don't think "video streaming service" when I think of Target. Do you?
Target Corp. is testing a Netflix-like movie streaming service with its own employees. Called Target Ticket beta, the service claims to offer "instant access to 15,000 titles, new releases, classic movies and next-day TV." The site requires a Target employee login to use.

Uploading a history book to your website so your students can have access to it? I hope they throw the book at this hardened criminal!
A teacher received a huge shock last week after uploading a copy of a book to his website that offers free educational resources for students. The Latvian publisher behind the work, a $4.00 history book, complained to the authorities which resulted in the teacher being raided by the police. During interrogation the teacher learned that his mistake could cost him dearly – two years in jail, forced labor, or a fine.

Ionut Budisteanu, 19, of Romania was awarded first place for using artificial intelligence to create a viable model for a low-cost, self-driving car at this year's Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, a program of Society for Science & the Public. Ionut said his research addresses a major global issue. In 2004, car accidents caused 2.5 million deaths worldwide1, and 87 percent of crashes resulted from driver error2. With 3-D radar and mounted cameras, Ionut created a feasible design for an autonomously controlled car that could detect traffic lanes and curbs, along with the real-time position of the car – and it would only cost $4,000. He received the Gordon E. Moore Award of $75,000, named in honor of the Intel co-founder and fellow scientist.
No you aren’t misreading anything; IBM really is updating COBOL with XML and Java support. The first reaction would probably be a resounding "Why?", so IBM put it into perspective by pointing out that there are still over 200 Billion lines of COBOL code still running all over the world.
To the cool kids, COBOL probably looks like a zombie, complete with loose bits of decaying flesh. However it still accounts for a vast amount of operational enterprise code that's too expensive to replace all in one hit.

A new phone survey of over 1K Americans shows a surprising number of them support the unrestricted right to own 3D printers in the home. When the same people were asked if they approved of using those printers to manufacture 3D gun parts, the majority of the respondents polled said they couldn't or wouldn't support the practice.
That may well represent an element of discomfort with new technology that colors the overall results — and it's still overwhelming support for private ownership of 3D printers.
Just because Microsoft is getting prepped to introduce the next-gen Xbox this week, doesn’t mean that the company will be abandoning the 360. Microsoft is releasing a dashboard update as a public beta in late June.
We understand Microsoft is aiming to ensure Xbox 360 users can transition over to the next-generation console and interact with existing Xbox 360 users using messaging, beacons, and achievements.
Firefox 22 is out in beta and barring any unforeseen difficulties, should be released for general use on June 24th. The main changes and improvements in this version are plug-in free voice calls, the inclusion of OdinMonkey, and HiDPI support. What’s not included was the expected default blocking of third party cookies.
