Do you really want to give Google yet more access to your personal information / habits?

Based on all the wonderful services they provide for me with that information (like Google Now, automatic traffic notifications based on my traveled routes,etc), and the fact that I haven't seen any actual bad things from it, yes, yes I do.

Can you explain what's wrong with the word to a non-native English speaker? I haven't ever seen it before, but looking at its dictionary definition, it seems to be a legitimate word in that context.

It's very out of place. It's like seeing a text message from your 85 year old grandmother saying "YOLO!"

What far greater uses are there for a sub-orbital craft ? And don't tell me that this is a stepping stone to an orbital craft. It isn't. If they wanted to design an orbital craft next, they would basically have to start from scratch.

Wow, it's almost like you think sub-orbital craft and orbital craft don't share any technology at all. All orbital craft have to move through the thick lower atmosphere before they reach orbit. Learning how to do that quickly, efficiently, and safely is just one thing that we area learning with these vehicles.
