“Popular Science”? I remember glancing at that as a kid, when my dad would take me to the local barber for what was euphemistically called a “haircut”. Seemed like PS was about on a par with Grit Magazine in terms of credibility. You know, how to build your own flying car with iron shavings or your own working backyard nuclear reactor with Popsicle sticks, and the like.
Has anything changed since then (about “Popular Science”, I mean)?
Let me know when this guy finishes his MCSE, and then we'll talk.
More U.N. type bull crap.
The primitives have no clean drinking water, no access to food source, no overarching constitution, no private property or the right to own such, no written laws or the enforcement thereof, many can’t read or write, they await a U.N. handout like cargo cultists living in U.N. tent. They poop in a freshly dug hole every morning dying of diseases easily treated with common medicine.
The United Nations causes more destruction than it could possibly ever fix. They are to the world what liberals are to the United States.
United Nations says to the little brown boy, here Jamal chew on this laptop with a “Free Web Browser” instead of let’s go kill the dictator that is crushing you under his foot. To the U.N. good is evil and evil is good.
Your memory is faulty.
What has changed is, the current editor is a partisan shill — besides the constant “green” and AGW hoax harping that they do now, there was an entire issue devoted to Al Gore. I won’t be renewing, which is too bad, my dad was also a subscriber, and it was always around when I was a kid.
Job one will be for their gov’t to require censoring software installed on every approved computer, and unapproved computers will be smashed with mallets.

Thanks JPB!
Click the link up in the topic message, “Terrastar” or whatever, it’ll take you to a topic from the FRchives regarding the company which went under. The graphic was built by them to show the coverage they’d planned to offer.
Just like practically all other magazines, including Consumer Reports and Science.
Probably just a coincidence that magazine sells are plummeting:

Is there enough fuel left on-board to move it to a new location?
Without a steadfast policy regarding DNS servers stated publicly beforehand, it is exceedingly difficult to contemplate donating to such a cause.
