I'm not sure you should use probe and ouch in the same sentence. All you need to do now is throw in an alien and I am outta here.

That other time, was it the Viagra or the Cialis that did the trick?

Samsung doesn’t want you to see video of this GTA V exploding phone mod | Ars Technica[^]
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.

That's not really on, Samsung. That isn't your material that is copyrighted there - that's just an attempt at censorship because it's publicity you don't like.
If they had tried via the game owners then that would be allowable - it's their game, their copyright.
And since mere possession of the phone appears to make you impervious to bullets, I'd be tempted to get one and never charge it...

Saw the press conference on the BBC lunchtime news, and the project leader was asked by a journalist "Is it safe to assume it crashed?"
His response was that he didn't understand the question...
The latest news isn't good though: Schiaparelli Mars probe's parachute 'jettisoned too early' - BBC News[^]
Quote: The European Space Agency (Esa) has not yet conceded that the lander crashed but the mood is not positive.
It appears to have dumped the parachute, and fired it's retros for 3 seconds instead of thirty. And then free-falled the remaining kilometer.
OK ... so who was giving people in QA suggestions about landing procedure code? Come on, own up!
