Maybe that’s Rubin’s master plan? Just keep starting up companies that Google will eventually want to acquire.

I see this as a device for that small segment of people who know they don’t want a bunch of junk on their phones and useless software gimmicks, or those that want a higher-end phone that isn’t a Samsung. This is a very small group, but it has the potential to be very vocal.

your keyboard is probably filthier than that toilet seat, and you touch your keyboard with your naked fingers all the time — what’s the big deal with sitting your butt down on a toilet seat?

Then look at the higher-end BT receivers, like the ones for hifi listening at home. Those need power (no internal battery). I’m using this one and it’s pretty good.

The F35 is the one we didn’t need. Many of its roles can be filled by cheaper drones, and it was more expensive than a true air superiority dog craft in the F22. What we needed was a replacement for the F15 and that’s not the 35, it’s the 22. The F35 replaces the F16 - it’s a versatile craft that is the master none.

Half my childhood was spent in Tucson, so mt heart has always gone to the A-10.

I was the Repair Officer / DCA onboard USS JOHN F KENNEDY in the early 2000's. I had a hard job — the ship underwent a major overhaul designed to extend its service life by another decade, but the project was dramatically underfunded and short-scheduled. The whole thing was a nightmare that my division, by nature of…
