To me the process sounds like a regular ping and registration process. After all SMS was designed as a "ping protocol" and someone with a bright idea monetized it! #respect

Lets be honest ... think we lost the war. We've accepted bloat in "Modern software". eg Web Browsers. I thoroughly miss Opera 11 (or was it 12) ... 16MB of exactly what a web browser should be vs 256MB+ of say Chrome/FF&

Definitely not the current versions of batteries but those will drop in size over a short period of time. Maybe instead of stealing the battery itself the energy from it would be illegitimately transferred off ... "siphoned off" i

Used batteries will be big business: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29090924 I'm also willing to bet that this will become a high value item for property theft.

Dare we say it but this is by far a more sustainable/sensible option vs buying a new car. Also liked Toyota's idea to simply convert ICE's to hydrogen powered ones.

Couldn't agree more. Human migration and mixing has always happened. Look at any trade route and you'll see it clear as day. Concepts like race are a fantastical vanity construct (things that should never have taken a foot hold du
