so this first one happened in a wyoming college, i dont think we should base our whole view around the fact that this happened there, but have you ever been to wyoming? yes, this would make state news. anyway, it was an LG v6000 flip phone. of course, the manufacturer said it had a "replacement battery" and it was their fault. but you know how whenever you take or send your phone in for repairs, they are always like, "yep. it's water damage" which the warranty pretty much goes away when water is introduced. apparently, a foot tall flame shot out of the girls phone while it was up against her head. seriously, read the article.

and now on with the hacks. anyone know anyone with a Lexus IS series? well, there's a hack in the computers onboard controller for the traction system that will pretty much just turn it off and let you peel out forever. i guess. here's the article.

and the elevator hack that we've been talking about. but from what i can gather, it only works when you are going down. what good is an elevator hack if i cant get up to the floor i want as fast as possible? read it for yourself. and now, off we go to face the city.
