Why a helicopter on Mars?

My Fuji X-T1 can also take "hundreds" of shots on a single battery.

If your friend is only getting 50 pics per charge, she has a duff battery.

A gas weedeater is far more powerful.

Expand that beyond Amazon, to most of the TechBro environment.

Google no longer recognizes the dot as unique.
Johns.Hopkins @gmail.com is pretty much the same as johnshopkins@gmail.com

Originally, they did. A dot in there was unique. Sometime later, not so much.
One of my gmail addresses is similar to the first above. First registered long ago, when gmail was beta invitation only. Some years later, some dude on the other side of the country registered one similar to the second. I get his emails.
