You lost me riiiight abooout here. Seems a bit overblown.

> I only care if it hurts me.

Got me back right here. I care if it hurts Giz editors, too.

> I don't want to have to make that extra click.

Whoops, lost me again.

> And operators work the way you expect them to.

I'm back! You're touching on it here, but the part that is seriously fucked up in Google's corruption of its own search engine with Google+ inclusion is even more infuriating. To make it all compatible, the '+' operator was dropped, and they didn't really let us know.

You're forgetting the exchange rate, Jesus. Vaderbucks are like pesos. You can actually buy several Death Stars for the cost of a good cup of coffee.
Better yet - what happens when I'm out of town at a restaurant, and my battery runs out in my pocket after I've ordered dinner? I'd better get good at washing dishes.

I see nothing but problems coming from relying on a wallet that requires its batteries to charged every night, let alone late in a day of heavy use.

EDIT: Yeah, fuck this.
Cars are used to transport people and cargo. Kidnappers and drug smugglers use them to accomplish their evil deeds.

My wife asked me to use my car to go to the store and get milk. So I did.

Therefore I am a kidnapper and and drug smuggler.
I don't get it.

Old Gawker had words harnessed to graphics, images, video, and a vivacious commenting community.

How is that better?
It's useless in my dolphin browser. Completely broken.
I feel like I'll be better off just using my RSS feeds to browse Lifehacker. This is a salad.
None of these links work. The pane on the right goes blank, and that is it.
Gizmodo and connected friends,

It's been fun. Thanks for the good times. I would stick around to comment, but it's not worth fighting the FUD.

I'll be on twitter I guess - which is pretty pathetic.

Brian, you lost me at "trainwreck." I think your snark is broken.
@andywhoa: Good point. This needs explanation.
@MJDeviant: You had me at Joey Lawrence.
The Today show aired this footage this week on their own broadcast... and now they fired a guy for it, and are trying to pull it?

Total. Bullshit. NBC, get a fucking grip.
I'm both pissed and disappointed that Jesus Diaz wasn't tasked with writing this. After his egregious diatribe it would have been good medicine, and subsequently engendered my respect.

But then again, I'm not surprised. He's not one to make bold self-corrections.
