Love my Galaxy S5 I received my 5 about a week ago after using an HTC One for several years. I think the best thing I can say is there isn't one thing that bugs me about the phone. It's screen and UI are fantastic. The battery...

Gee, I wonder why. The only thing we have seen relative to drones is footage of a flash of light, a loud explosion, and reports of how many were killed. Add to that Mr. Obama's insistance he can kill Americans any place...

What is all of this talk about losing and replacing jobs with Technology Advances? What do you think has been going on since the invention of the Cotton Gin? Typical nerd naivete. Sheeeeesh.
