What are the best websites/podcasts/etc for tech news? I feel like I'm never in "the know" and would like to be.

The Insider News[^]
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Leo Laporte's TWiT network goes a long way to keep me in the loop. If you want a weekly summary of tech news, their eponymous TWiT show is the go-to resource. I also like their Security Now podcast (which focuses on IT security news), and Windows Weekly, which is all about Microsoft itself.
Each has a new episode every week, and roughly 2 hours in length.
It pretty much grew out of TechTV. Some familiar faces if you've seen any of it.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Simply because I have no intention to travel to Sprecheichchinesisch, Ohneinnichtschonwieder, Verdammtescheißeblödesmistding or similar places any time soon.

I have to wonder...he spent years working at the patents office. How hard can it be to get patents granted to yourself when you know the process inside-out? And then, y'know...working there.
Not to take anything away from his accomplishments, of course. He still remains at the top of a very short list of people I think were true gifts to the world.

You still need to prove that your invention is new and non-obvious. Knowing which hoops to jump through might speed things up, but no more than a decent patent lawyer would.

I misread "Einstein" as "Epstein" and spend good one minute trying to figure out the joke.
