Would you do it: Radio tower repairmen.  1,700ft.  No safety gear.  Best view in world.

You know, I never really gave much thought into radio towers and how they work. I mean, I know the basic principles of it all. But the actually nitty gritty details such as “How do you replace the light at the top?” never really sunk very deep into my brain. I can now consider that ship sunk after watching a video of a radio tower repairman scaling to the top to replace nothing more than a simple light bulb. If you think it’s a simple task, punch...

The LEGO car of LEGO cars: Bugatti Veyron RC LEGO car.

App Store approval process broken with no fix in sight…denies Drivetrain remote bittorent control app.

While the App Store has the potential to become phenomenal and completely obliterate everything else, the approval process hasn’t been exactly the smoothest. In fact, it is by far one of the worst examples of a “team” or group I have ever seen. With double standards and wish wash guidelines, the App Store is to me dead. Not I don’t expect it do whither away anytime soon. It will continue to grow as people sadly turn their cheek to Apple’s...
