Why would presume that owners would not want to install electric car chargers in their garages if there was demand for it? Presumably in such a situation you would be expected to pay for the electricity in the same way you pay for your gas

Cloud based versions work significantly better. They are able to put perhaps 10,000 times* more processing power into recognizing what you said. They are better able to deal with different people, background noise, and tick accents. When

I really dislike this idea. Living in an apartment means I put my recycling in a communal receptacle which is then put out by the building. If you had this rule I might feel compelled to take the extra time to bring my recycling over the

Boeing is also the safe bet. There is zero chance that in three years Boeing will be bankrupt and have no way of completing the capsule. Realistically I could see this happening to both SpaceX (1 in 500) and SNC (no clue about the ods may

I don't know I can see fingerprints being more secure than 4 digit pin. I can watch people enter their 4 digit pin and memorize just by standing next to them on the subway. I can't do the same thing with a fingerprint.
