There must be at least 50 million residential garages in the US alone. If we automate all cars and switch to a Cars-as-a-Service model that is 50 million large rooms suddenly available. That's a lot of reclaimed real estate. Edit: If t

This is the sort of thing I expect Windows Phone to really excel at. Should be one of the big benefits from Microsoft unifying their code base and UI between mobile and PC. Does this feature exist, or is it in the works?

I agree. Just because a technology is productized in some way doesn't mean it's safe. To the contrary if the product flops then the company will probably abandon it. Ideally I'd like to see both safeguards that a company wi

If the latency of pCell is low enough then you could have a thin-client phone tunneling into a cloud OS. Now get rid of most of the CPU/memory hardware complexity on the phone (which should lower power requirements for the phone too).

Excellent points. I think if we broaden our scope to television (which is arguably becoming looked upon just as highly as movies) there are better pickings. There are a lot of characters that are based on sex, but there are a few that cou

I agree, not the most solid etymological evidence =). I was mainly countering the idea that Greenland used to be more green, which the etymology does not suggest.

These are very different. There is evidence for the possibility of future catastrophic climate change. There is no evidence for the existence of hell. There are also arguments against Pascal's wager that do not apply to climate change.
