    In reply to Google Street View Captures Fire Truck Hit and Run With an Old Lady On a Bike
    Why do we assume it's the fire truck that made the little old lady fall over? An equally plausible explanation is that Google's face-blurring technology temporarily disoriented her, causing her to lose control of her bike. #googlestreetview

    What's more important, one old lady on a bike, or potentially your computer (and the implied collection of porn and torrented movies therein) that's currently at risk in a serious structure fire?

    That's what I thought.... #googlestreetview

    Not a hit and run...she is well away from the truck.

    She simply panicked as she saw the big truck, couldn't control herself and ended up on the ground.

    I don't see any evidence that would indicate that any person on truck contact took place. #googlestreetview

    @Gundem: Agreed. As someone who drives a fire truck, I can tell you that bike was not hit by one. Even a glancing tap with the front bumper would have bent the front wheel pretty much in half. Anything more serious and she'd be a grease spot. #googlestreetview

    This guy is a total socialist. He says that people aren't interested in amassing a collection of items that they themselves own, they would rather share. For a blog about tech, this is the exact opposite of what is believed.

    Does this model come with a toilet? I mean if you're going for efficiency go all the way don't half ass it. I also need a mini-fridge and a kegerator to assist in keeping me calm.
