@georgetakei considering the fact that bird populations are collapsing because of the lack of insects, I say it's a win for songbirds.

@arstechnica interestingly enough, PalmOS still lives on as WebOS in LG's television offerings.

@georgetakei a most unusual falcon hood. Just beware when they remove it and set it loose to hunt its prey…

@georgetakei part of why cicadas have that weird 17 year cycle is because they are so darn tasty. It means predators cannot simply wait for them to emerge.

I have no qualms about eating them. It's merely learned disgust.

@arstechnica meanwhile we here in Europe are getting the Fiat Topolino. Now that is a fun little weird vehicle.
