Eye strain?

Wouldn't watching a screen that's so close to your eyes cause eye strain?

Or have some effect on possibly becoming nearsighted?

all with no carbon emissions

As long you don't include the source of the electricity used to recharge its batteries.

Only $14K?

14 bribes at roughly $1000 per bribe? This guy is definitely lacking in the brains department.

Maybe the gov't felt sorry for him and gave him an easy sentence.

"I" stuff

Doesn't Apple claim ownership of anything that starts with an I?

Just in time for Halloween.

Talk about good timing.

Here we go again.... remember Apollo 1 fire

...flammability risk of some of the tape used to protect wires...

Hopefully they're not planning to fill the capsule with 100% oxygen.

Emergency breaking?

"Tesla features did not help stay in the lane or break in an emergency."

I would the car would brake in an emergency and not break.

home to the largest nuclear power....

Where? The largest power plant in

- Arizona?

- USA?

- North America?

building tribal knowledge

In these daze of political correctness and snowflakes can we still "tribal knowledge"?

Where's The Doctor?

A TARDIS would make sort of work so much easier.

Video chat... how retro

"adding voice and video chat so you can talk to people anywhere in the world without giving them your phone number"

Blackberry's BBM on BB10 did all this about 14 years ago.

Until a real solution is offered we've made the difficult decision...

PowerBasic anyone?

Don't forget PowerBasic (gui & text versions), brought to you by the team that created Borland Turbo Basic.

Sounds like a Dalek.

Just wondering if things (phones & tablets) were more secure in the "old days" when the governments were using Blackberry devices and backend systems that were designed with security in mind?

Best Buy and Home Depot do it as well

It turns out that big retailers in Canada are sending customer purchase details and other info to Meta whenever a customer answers yes to getting their receipt via e-mail.

...would still say Donald Trump was the US president....

That's exactly what Donnie and his fan club still claim.

I got fed up with the workplace monitoring by my former employer and quit. They believed the AI was always right and when I proved the AI was wrong (on many ocassions) I was accused of being overly sensitive.

The supervisors couldn't do the type of work we did, but they thought they were experts because they knew how use google and youtube.

Needless to say the high staff turnover rate continues.

DragonFly vs DraganFly

DraganFly is a long established Canadian drone company.

Winnipeg in February?

I guess they won't be bringing their hot tubs this time.

I spy with my little eye

Beijing is seeking alternative strategies...

Ah yes, good old fashioned industrial espionage.

Back to $100

If Tesla stock keeps dropping it will be near what I bought 100 shares for back 2012.

I bought shares at $20 and sold them for $40 a few months later. It was my first stock purchase and at the time thought I had made out fairly well.

6 to 8

Going from 6 to 8 bits must have been a huge change back in the day.

Porsche designed BB10 phones

Anyone remember when Blackberry had Porsche designed phones?

Leave my system settings alone.

So, when you select the latest Firefox to be your default browser it changes your system settings to declare itself as the default pdf viewer.

They should at least ask if you'd like your settings changed!

Coloring?

Oh.... colouring...

neighbor ???

Why are you using the "land of the free" spelling?
