1) MS’s data centers are GOOD. Yeah the amazon ecosystem does some things it doesn’t, but it also does things that Amazon doesn’t.

I bet you will be surprised to find out it has nothing to do with Trump. I live in a solidly blue state doing a similar cloud move at the state level. Also similarly AWS was in the lead early on. Also similarly it’s going to MS and Azure.

There you go assuming someone’s preferred place of origin that totally ignores where they were born. 

Hmm well.. first you whip up a fake dossier and then you take it to the FISA court and have a media shill corroberate it without admitting that the corroborating document that had seen was also the self same report...

Ok, if my leg is 30" from hip to knee, and the seat pivots at a spot just below my sitting butt, what will reclining do for me? The seat back moves barely at all at that spot. It does not in fact generate more room for ones legs on most flights.

Said like a short person. Yes if the top of the seat moves 4 inches, the spot where a short person’s knee might land just a few inches above the hinge does not move 4 inches.

Bully for you. I wouldn’t even count you as tall. You are about 3" taller than the average man in the US, and not all of that is going to be in the legs. I happen to be 6'7" and my knees are basically going to be in contact with the back of most coach seats. If you recline my knees will be in your spine because…

Lucky you. I had some asshole try to recline in front of me and did not grasp that all he achieved was making both him and me uncomfortable as his seat 1) did not recline and 2) reclining it has simple transferred the pressure of remaining upright from the seat frame to my knees, a thin layer of upholstery and his…

Autopilot is problematic because it is not capable of generally doing the things it is sold as doing.

You literally have included a graph that shows that from 1990, using normalized dollars, wages have increased 10% including going up to match inflation (i.e. the bit covered by normalizing).

Writing loans to people who can’t afford it no questions asked just drives prices up insanely and destabilizes the market. Just ask Clinton and Greenspan how that pans out.

$1500 per year. $15k over a typical 10 year life span. 

It’s unclear if he even wants to be president. By running a campaign, he gets to spend unlimited sums on campaign ads without having to worry about the limits imposed on us mere mortals by the FEC.

The gladiator is priced wrong. The Wrangler gets away with it because there isn’t a lot of competition and what is there is even more expensive. I think jeep had both a bit of hubris, and did not feel they had to be conscious of how high the price went to avoid cannibalizing their full size truck sales.

Fun fact. MASSIVE quantities of humans drive an even more massive quantity of miles and actually crash relatively infrequently.

Except none of those models made in China ships in terribly significant numbers. If you put them all under one brand, they’d be pretty far back in the market and have a pretty poor reputation. 

The only reason KIA is here is Hyundai took them over. The only reason Hyundai is here is that they had enough cash to sell really cheap while simultaneously investing heavily in unprecedented levels of automation in auto manufacturing and building quality control into their production pipeline.

Taking a while to accept that Korean manufacturers can make good cars was due to the fact they dug their own hole selling very, very bad cars in the US first.

A battery breakthrough is necessary. Perhaps several. The charging infrastructure is improving but that is like reading articles on small companies being the fastest growing company in America.

You paid $750 for a phone. That’s not a budget phone in a world with fairly usable $150 phones.
