I don't buy the argument about customer service. Why, and under what circumstances would it ever be necessary for a CS rep to see the driver? There is none that does not violate various principles that have nothing whatsoever to do wit

It is amazing how ambitious and progressive Germany has been over the last two decades. It has always been very public transportation and self-locomotion focused, but this is quite impressive. They have curtailed nuclear energy; funded alte

That doesn't look like a solid enclosure to me at all. Sure it's somewhat tamper-proof and meant to look like some phone/electric company component, but it really doesn't look permanent to me at all. I suspect it was an

Sorry to hear that. I don't know if it really helps, but you might want to try an internalize that as much surveillance as exists, they aren't interested in regular people not involved in crimes they or their superiors and corpora

I wish our society would start holding companies responsible for the costs like this. They externalize the costs to society and it should not be tolerated and it should even be illegal to knowingly externalize costs without offering to pay

Although I would not consider myself an expert, I know it is far more complicated than you appear to think it is. It is not just the climate, as previously mentioned, or the access to fresh water sources, it is also the fertility and durabi

Based on the existing comments, I realize this won't be popular, but this is a matter of violating FAA regulations for commercial operation of drones. No one is stopping you from posting drone footage for private purposes, but if you a

Well, you just store all your data on the NSA cloud from your NSA terminal. To your point about he MacBook one port. They do offer a rather smart "splitter" dongle at $60-$90 that allows you to charge while I/Oing other data

And it will remain so because all those who could possibly affect change are taking the easy road to America and compounding our returns and advantages.

I didn't say government, I said society. It's sad that people don't realize that or value the contributions they could make to their societies, to lift their cultures and countries, instead of compounding ever more advantages

I could have written that myself, but the problem is that we really have a shadow government, one that is not accountable, not responsible, not regulated, and not in any way representative. If we were really interested in fixing this, we wo

Or, in other words, how much will you deprive your own society of and contribute to American society, assuring our domination and your society's dependence and subjugation.

I sense some resentment. The thing about Apple (I have no bias) is that you don't have to worry about competition. Even if there is a machine that approaches the performance and specs of a Mac, the thing Apple fans don't have to w

I am a bit on the fence about them seemingly jettisoning the lighting connector? Why go with a plug that has a delicate prong in the center rather than a plug with the contacts around the perimeter? Does anyone know if there was any emphasi

I don't know. I got a sense that Tesla was trying to deflect. If not, at the very least, it seems that the blame falls on HQ by not providing proper training resources. I suspect the underlying reality is that Tesla is trying to gloss

I don't think you appreciate the impact. Services are something you lease and use for a specific period and you never own. This seems at least to be an affirmation that ebooks cannot ever be owned by anyone but the publisher and there
