The United States Navy has started using Xbox controllers for their periscopes.

The United States Navy has started using Xbox controllers for their periscopes.You read that right – because the control stick for periscopes is so complicated, using Xbox controllers reduces the learning time from hours to minutes.

Another bonus: Xbox controllers cost $37,980 less!

Utter rubbish. What exactly is it you think they eat. They are flipping cannibals eating literally thousands of their own fish kind.

No. If they aren't eating people then what are they eating.

If you're going to Lead the Board you need to brighten up your act.

Sorry it's not shark related but I've got a soft spot for the world's shortest scheduled flight being in the UK.
Less than a minute.
I want to find out what altitude they get to?

Sharks attack their own fish kind all the time. Just because they only ate 6 humans you seem to think that is a good thing. Well, its not Thousands of fish were eaten. Who cares about them?

Basking Sharks using their huge mouths only eat plankton. They are the innocent sharks of the Sea.

Humans are unique in that we have two separate types of body lice, head and pubic. Most animals have just one type. With the improvement of genetics we now know that our pubic lice is nearly identical to that of gorillas.
Make of that what you will.
