I mean we have the "Bullet Train' being built. Put Facebook out in Bakersfield and let FB employees commute from Silicon Valley to Bakersfield. Isn't that one of the selling points of the bullet train?
Never been to Hanoi, don't wanna go. But if you Google Earth at the street level view you will see some interesting tidbits.
1) The motorbikes are at minimum fairly modern, not "ancient" at all. Not easily identifiable as 2 or 4 stroke to my untrained eye, but most have a tail light, which is one of the first things that gets broken on a bike, which means they are decently new.
2) The overhead situation is not going to be easily overcome. A zillion trees overhanging the streets and a billion trillion random electrical lines.
3) A big bus, not the nuclear kind, is going to have a hard time traversing a majority of Hanoi.
Good luck to Hanoi, it isn't going to be a cakewalk.
I have NEVER seen a cheap piece of plastic last for more than a couple years out baking in the sunshine. It disintegrates on it's own. Now admittedly some of it doesn't get as much exposure thus is slower to disappear, but it all reverts back to good ole mother earth.
Otherwise the Tennessee River which I grew up on would be totally lined with styrofoam. Seen plenty of it as a boy growing up in the 60s.
Heck, there are some woods, cedar for example, that will last longer than a plastic bottle exposed to the elements.
Amateurs sometimes use this stuff there is even more reason to have truthfulness in advertising.
Just because "experts" know the real dimensions is not a reason to be deceptive.
Don't believe me, well there are plenty of "expert" doctors and pharmacists that know the chemical makeup of many over-the-counter compounds but I don't. And guess what, the manufacturer is required to accurately detail the ingredients.
Moffett Field is government owned property. Google has absolutely no right to it. It is home to a significant population of burrowing owls, which are an endangered species.
Now these people are gonna turn it into a frigging trailer park for silicon valley trash.
A company that willingly manufactures the VAST majority of it's products using Chinese coal and slave labor decides to cough up a billion dollars to do what?
Undo what it has wrought?
If Apple was sincere it would move its manufacturing to the USA where we actually have clean air standards.
Gun, ban the truck, ban the knife, ban the bomb, you can even ban the message, whether encrypted or not.
But you will never achieve your goal until you ban the gun user, ban the truck driver, ban the knife welder, ban the bomber, and ultimately since all of these heinous terrorists acts are "messages" you must ban the messenger.

Oh puhlease, give me a break. And next you're going to tell me that Hillary Clinton swapping spit with Robert Byrd in the front of cameras was all a figment of my imagination....
As a concerned citizen in Santa Clara County, CA I went to the "demonstration" of the new electronic voting machines prior to them being purchased now years ago. I expressed my concerns over potential hacking and they (practically the entire ignorant bunch) looked at me as if I was a green space alien.
Educating these particular people is simply not possible. If you do not tow the liberal ideology then you are nothing to them.

You are 100% correct about that control key

The Brainiacs over at Facebook aren't smart enough to think of perhaps putting a new facility in a different town that isn't already congested.

It will be interesting if this and other "decisions" by those who know better will send Vietnam into another civil war.
For he certainly put them to good use.... What with the "Focus on Muslim Outreach" mandate Obama issued to NASA.
Look, Trump already has a scientist he can refer to if so be. His name is Ben Carson. And he is as good as anyone Obama had working for him.

Obviously you haven't benefitted from the law. As someone who has you have no idea what you are talking about.
That is not an AC post! Well not really. Jeez, never seen so many people in my life afraid to say who they are....
Huh?
And ultimately, the telling point was what did Obama do? "He went to some sort of summit and told Putin to stop it!"
Wow, Obama really give Putin the full bore of American might.

I personally like higher temperatures, bring me on some global warming, we are gonna need it for the next glacial phase of our current Ice Age.

We don't need the Google bird-brains thinking they can restrict free-speech to ensure free-speech.
What we do need is a lot more 500lb bombs killings the people who are throwing gay men off the roofs of five story buildings.
It is absolutely a restraint of interstate trade. How the patent office couldn't see this is beyond me.
And it was red and sat on a yellow base.
Wonder where Putin got that idea?

Tell that to the bakers forced by the government to bake for LGBT whatevers.

Yes PLEASE let us have another election. I'm so ready to do my part again to kick Hillary's butt!

I call BS on that.
At any moment in time it would take me probably less than 5 minutes to locate a delivery truck parked on a city street while being unloaded.
When I see that being curtailed I will believe the rest.
Yes, And the people who are paying are just as pissed about it.
Just sayin'.
