Yeah, but I don't know anyone that will just blindly order stuff from Amazon using Alexa like this. They all know that they have no idea what item will be shipped or what price they may be charged. So I'd argue that they are leavi

Is this really the case? I've seen countless companies pull their employees back to the office, either full time or part time. With the economy slowing, I don't see that workers will have much say in it.

If I remember correctly, Houston is one of the most Air Conditioned cites on earth. In the older days, Houston was much smaller with less concrete and paving that holds the heat in, making the entire area warmer. Plus, older houses were des

I doubt it will ever be completed. If they can at least linkup the Bakersfield area with SoCal that would be a win. There are a lot of people commuting between the LA area and Bakersfield.

Most of these people would have been better served by a plug in hybrid. It’s tough for apartment dwellers to find chargers and the time needed to charge them.

I think it’s hard to tell with all of the variables involved. I tried to stay away from crowded indoor locations. I wore masks when they were required and wasn’t infected.

Back in 1997-98 we had Pentium II machines (450mhz) with fast SCSI drives and 128 MB of ram that were fast Photoshop machines. I also remember it being pretty fast on the G3 Mac's when they first came out.

Cabover designs tend to be pretty bumpy due to the driver being on top of the wheels. Long distance truckers don't like that. Used to be more common in the past here in the US.
