Yes, he was a former submariner.

Namor?

In tech news, we have a nano breakthrough in computer tech.

San Francisco - Hewlett-Packard on Tuesday said it has invented a revolutionary computer chip that uses nanotechnology to achieve a significant performance boost.

Researchers at the world's largest computer maker said the new approach can allow an eightfold increase in the number of transistors that can be squeezed onto a variety of programmable chips, while bringing savings in energy consumption.

The new technology works by using a grid of nanowires to connect conventional integrated circuits chips known as FPGAs, or field programmable gate arrays, the Silicon Valley company said in a statement.

Not only does the new technology promise to increase speed, but according to HP it should also be possible to manufacture the new chips in existing factories - a key advantage over current improvements which rely on reducing the size of transistors and which need new fabrication facilities for each new chip generation.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm not looking!

Also, Carter got a submarine named after him. Yes, he was a former submariner.

It would have been cooler had he been the former Sub-Mariner.

ETA: Curse you, David.

I can't even bring myself to look.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The best part of the story was the "design" company who sent him an email that he'd been hacked.
