Yes, but then you just have one hand on the keyboard. So now to type, you have to bring your right hand down, and resume typing. The distance there is greater vs. using the touchpad. I just have to flick my wrist and boom, I am on the touch

Yes, but you have to lift your arm up. It is far far faster to scroll through a web page with the touchpad.

I did take a close look at the Surface Pro. Sorry, the build quality is nowhere near a MacBook Pro. Secondly, I found the touch screen very gimmicky. I tried using it for a week and found that my hand just hurt lifting it up repeatedly and

Every single drone should have a self-destruct rail inside. When the drone disappears, or is seized, it can be activated. The terms of the destruct can be set on deployment. For example, if you're deploying the drone in a theatre of wa

Tesla cars do not work in residential streets because it is far more difficult to navigate autonomously than the highway.[1] This is what Uber is doing. Frankly, Uber is reckless and someone is going to die just so that their 2nd tier engin

No. It is not likely the average person will have time to go through all the nuances of a bill to properly evaluate it and make an informed decision. You are obviously passionate about the big name issues but there are hundreds, if not thou

This seems like a bad idea. You are assuming you have an informed electorate and that is rarely the case. Not saying what is in place is the best right now, but what you are suggesting seems far worse.

I have to say, looking back, this is the first year, in close to 8 years, where I have not bought anything made by Apple. I decided this year to not buy the iPhone 7. I usually upgrade every year and buy the phone outright. But with the hea

Sears mostly has a big marketing issue. I almost never see them online. No online advertising. No social media. Nothing to show they are at all connected to the real world. My guess is they are still doing TV adverts and I think a lot of pe

There is something very powerful you can do: 1. Stop using uber. Delete it. There is Lyft and Juno (in select markets). 2. Tell your friends about the dangers of using Uber. You can make a profound change by voting with your pocket book. La

It just sends the wrong message. As a company, you are advocating tech that spies on people or in this case the test taker. Overall, it leaves a nasty taste in your mouth that a company would use technology such as this. What else would the
