A lot of chatter has been generated lately about Key Bumping. Key Bumping is a real thing but you’ll often hear people say that you just need to install a Medeco lock or one other specific type of Schlege lock in order to be protected. Turns out that’s not entirely true.
I don’t know about Schlage’s […]
And that’s a bad thing.
In an unusual effort targeting a single chemical, several dozen scientists on Thursday issued a strongly worded consensus statement warning that an estrogen-like compound in plastic is likely to be causing an array of serious reproductive disorders in people.

Science: We finally figured out that you could separate fact from superstition by a completely radical method: observation. You can try things, measure them, and see how they work! Bitches.
XKCD.COM is funny and smart. Read it daily.
I just realized that the famous phrase in the USA “Git ‘er done” has a completely different meaning in the UK. Why?
