I'm a bit surprised they went with OLED and didn't try going with new hardware to prolong the battery life and maybe wring out a bit of extra performance.

> Keep me safe
On top of this, my mother always taught me to keep my friends safe as well. Every time she'd point out something stupid I had done, she would also point out that my friends were bound to make the same mistake. Helped me and my friends avoid some bad situations and highlighted what my mother was trying to teach me.
Re:The end of the road for petrol stations?

This Nio article brings up a good point I didn't think about. If we had swapping stations like this then people could get the benefit of the latest battery technology (given it fits) without having to take in the vehicle for an upgrade or trade it in all together.

What if instead of slowly charging at a station you just dropped the battery and loaded a new one? That'd immediately resolve the charge speed issue. If we did that I imagine we'd see the return of something similar to the gas station.

I'm not familiar with Gates's finances but are they as liquid as articles like these make them out to be?

If FB and Google are the only two on the naughty list, does this give opportunity for smaller startups to take advantage, or have they made it clear that startups can easily be added to the list as well?

Re:Coronavirus: Spain to keep registry of those who refuse Covid vaccine

I'm curious how they'll maintain the list with how mutative coronaviruses are. My guess is it's primarily for the initial vaccination but I'm not noticing any mention of what they'll do for mutations.

It obviously wouldn't be nearly as lucrative but these no-payout virtual slots could easily avoid exploiting people by simply selling access to these slots with a one time purchase. The whales would probably still purchase every slot available but at least you set an a cap on how much they can spend and they can still get their fix.

I'd be curious to hear more about the scouting system they have. The fact they can make it so far with such a big target on themselves (their speed) and not get stopped once does not bode well for officers trying to stop trafficking of any kind.
