How about building something similar to a space power station that loads huge batteries, then gravitationally launches them towards ground, while on the other side an automated system launches rockets with empty batteries that docks to the

I'd say that Google is not interested in the phone business. After all, they did have Motorola Mobility [1]. As other said, they are after the VR stuff, and any sale will contain that bit. They will let phones run a bit, then either se

The Packstation of DHL is great. What also DP/DHL did, is to make every little shop a micro-postoffice. Probably gave them some incentives, but it works great if you are not at home, you can be sure your package is at the store max 5 m

I drive daily my german Autobahn. With no exception, I haven't seen a Tesla drive faster than 120 Km/H. Most of them trail behind a truck, probably to conserve energy - less wind resistance. I almost laugh when I see them crawling
