Um, that looks like 6 mini-displayports, plus one full-sized, next to the HDMI. #gizmodoremainders

Is it sad that my house is littered in those old wood chests? Without the leather of course, that would be weird. #gizmodoremainders

As a bicyclist myself I've got to ask: Where the hell is that guy locking up that bike? Baghdad?

Thats a bit overkill if he's just running into the store or stopping for a bite (which is the only time I ever chain up to a street sign or the like). Kinda defeats the purpose of having two spots to chain to when one guy runs two different locks through the whole thing. #gizmodoremainders

@tande04: I run a very tin cable through my front tire for longer events, but that thing is just overkill. Also the bikes are meant to be secured with one on each side, so this setup still works. #gizmodoremainders

@tande04: China. You can still get a bike stolen here in the time it takes to visit an ATM - even with it chained to a pole and a wheel lock. #gizmodoremainders

@Toastie: Yeah it still works, just not as well as it could have.

You can get two bikes on a sign too, one on each side, but then you end up fumbling around the other guy's stuff, getting stuff looped, and maybe tangled. None of its a big deal, it can just get to be a hassle. A hassle that could be avoided had jackass not locked his bike down like fort knox when he's just getting a pack of gum. #gizmodoremainders

@SophT: Alright then, now I know. Guess I'll skip the bicycle trip through China. #gizmodoremainders
