Nothing scandalous here but, lets be honest, the REAL reason a company does or doesn’t do anything is because of MONEY. They think there is more money in continuing their current business model. Their figures may be correct now... but the rapid advancement of battery technology may mean that they are betting on the…

In the midwest this is known as a Yooper Scooper in reference to Michiganders in the U.P.

Am I the only one who dislikes this Slideshow type of articles? It reminds me of the clickbait articles on Fb that then have a few sentences mixed into 30 advertisements and make you click through 20 pages to read. My lifehack suggestion is Lifehacker not use this type of article.

Similar problem: All electronic toys should have a physical switch to turn them off completely.
