I don't see why there's a record to cut a car in half with an ax. I also don't see why someone would try to beat that record. I personally wouldn't do it, it's a waste of time.

Ha, Google wins in court again!

Laying enormous cables across the atlantic. Who else but Google (and Facebook!)

Now, even Intel is in the self-driving car game!

Minecraft needs mini games? Isn't it already a mini-game?

Even the Chinese hate upgrading to Windows 10.

Microsoft made a mistake about getting out of phones and restricting dumb passwords.

Talk about a tremendous waste of time--chopping a car in half!

Microsoft might profit from the "unwanted" upgrades.
