Scooby Doo has been doing this for decades, dude.

Yeah, the way I read it was that 59 was the "biggest update since Firefox 1," and I was like... wait, bigger than the actual first Quantum release?

I always imagined in the future, we'd have sweet mechs. We've gone down the dark path of automated robots that will follow us with ads.

In Japan, the only people who can offer these services are existing professional drivers. Per the CNBC report: "Tough rules legislate ride-hailing apps in Japan. Non-professional drivers are effectively barred from offering taxi services, so apps like Uber have to link riders with existing taxi fleets. That means its core service, that it offers in major markets like the U.S. and U.K., is not in full operation in Japan."

Is it any worse than the sheer amount of horsepower it takes to load a page on any modern web site? In addition to all the scripts that load from a thousand third party domains for tracking and embeds, you have all the responsive design code and giant images.

The end result still doesn't present much more meat and potatoes information than the web of yore.

Not really. Coffee used to be a lot cheaper at places like Dunkin Donuts. It's the rise of the "premium" coffee shop experience.

Good. If he was Satoshi Nakamoto, I would call him a weeaboo. Source: am weeaboo.

Instead, Japan will use these for sex robots. And I'll help.
