Change
Engadget changes it’s layout and for the most part, it’s unreadable. I didn’t like it before with it’s untethered white space and now the core font is a bit too “magazine-y”

We consume over 103,260,550 Coke cans a day (according to Gizmodo) Much like when American Airlines stopped painting their planes, Giz speculates that if you made the cans naked you’d save tons of paint yearly. TONS! And blind people rejoice.

He’s slightly modulated to sound like Judge Reinhold but when he goes into the high octaves, there’s the old Pee Wee we all know.
