The fact that people accept the treadmill desk that don't accept glass tells you that glass is on a whole other level of doucheness

No, google does not want this. Google wants everyone to drop windows entirely, hence chromebooks. If companies are making devices with windows and android it defeats the purpose.

I hope this goes international, seems like a great idea compared to a taxi, especially if they can figure out daily and weekly rates too.

Unfortunately researcher is almost right. I have a teenage relative that only uses instagram and snapchat. She has a Facebook profile but that's only because myself and other "older" relatives use Facebook.

Except there was no release, just a photoshopped image. None of those Samsung phones were on the market. Apple releases the iPhone and Samsung cries "no fair! We were thinking of making something like that someday!" and then it took Samsung 2 years to make a iPhone clone.. No wonder apple sued them.

I could see Sony suing Apple. Sony has always been pretty innovative, from Walkman to minidisc to ms duo.

Your MacBook Air came with a UPS built-in, it's called the battery.

I would buy it, as would about 70% of the population based on latest polls

Nice "prior art" you have there, of course you're comparing a list of samsung design concepts from 2006 to the actual iPhone released 2007. Journalist had predicted Apple was releasing a phone for years and released artist concept photos, it would take nothing for Samsung to claim those were their design. This is what Samsung smartphones looked like in 2006.

No. Patents encourage innovation, otherwise someone would come out with something great and everyone would just make clones of it, there would be nothing new. Yes samsung I'm talking about your clones, please make something new, we had new and exciting phone designs before the iPhone why can't we have that now?

I did the same. When it came time to move it was cheaper to have a trailer hitch installed for $200 and rent the uhaul trailer for $20 a day with unlimited mileage than it was to rent a uhaul moving truck just for a weekend. If I even need to haul anything large I'll just rent a trailer now. It's very rare that I'm out and see a fridge or couch I must buy and take home that instant so there is no need for a truck. I even bought new interior doors recently and those fit fine in the SUV. My father drives a truck but I think it's because he's overweight and feels more comfortable in a truck... in fact that's probably why many Americans buy large trucks, the seating area is much larger than most cars or SUVs

People moderate because there is power in moderation. The moderator has the power to help control what people read, they can push their own agenda, and smack down some trolls too. Who doesn't enjoy that?

It's less about moderation and more about control and mob mentality, because now with people's name and Facebook being available the Internet can go attack that person they do not agree with. I think that is far more dangerous than a few negative comments.

Do they need to be on the grid? Seems a few extra solar panels or a natural gas generator would be enough to handle peak usage.

Google is the worse for tying customers to their services. Sign up for email and suddenly I'm getting flooded with google+ garbage I never wanted or asked for and there's no way to disable or opt-out. And now they want to put our real names on every youtube comment we ever made? Talk about invasion of privacy, and people thought apple was bad for having a walled garden of apps. Anything that stops google sounds good to me.
