Would it be possible to have a single switch that disables all automatic systems and puts the plane in complete manual control as much as possible? Can these planes even operate in a complete manual mode?

Of course other countries with excellent public transit also have plenty of scenic country roads. It's not like we have to pick between the two. (I don't think you were claiming we do, I just wanted to highlight that argument.)

Does anybody know how many of these could we expect to fit in a Macbook Pro? My understanding is the power consumption has been a limiting factor.

Sorry, but you're not helping. There is not a lack of people, media, and doctors who repeat the calories in calories out mantra. People have this hammered into them all the time. And it's obviously not working.

Because nobody agrees what to cut. Democrats don't want to cut social programs like Medicaid and Medicare. I mean, everybody needs health care so those costs are not avoidable. Unfortunately, health care costs too much because the indu

Sorry for being off-topic but I'm still going to use this as an opportunity to vent. This is the most pointless piece of regulation. It's unfortunate non-US users are also subjected to it. What bit of good does it really do for yo

It's literally not. The human body is much more complicated than that. Repeating this mantra is never going to help anybody. The most important thing is for people to fix the kind of food they consume so their appetite (hormones) self-

One of the problems is Amazon decided to become a bazaar instead of a store. So it might be sold by Amazon, or fulfilled by Amazon, or sold by somebody else. You have to pay attention to who you're buying from and what the policies are

Obviously I'm in the minority based on their success but after the latest Prime rate increase I've mostly given up on Amazon. Part of it is just the terrible UX. Compare trying to watch Prime video with going to netflix.com. The r
