Well, yes. That's the point. One of the largest reasons for breaking up huge vertical monopolies is that the cost of entry for other participants is too high because the monopoly can subsidize one side of the business with the others. Can anyone else create a viable mapping, searching, or other business competing with them? No, not really. The only competitor they have in any of these is in Smartphone Mobile OS -- which is a duopoly with Apple.
So are you proposing a consumer pay-per search model, or a monthly subscription? Or is the search company supposed to be taking money from the sites who'll pay for higher rankings? Mapping probably only makes sense as a consumer subscription service.
I think OP meant that, because of the risk of the payload failing/exploding on launch, we don't just shoot all our waste into space (ignoring aiming for the sun, just get it off the earth). Also, OP is still wrong, but for different reasons.
I use my watch as a workout accessory, and it doesn't even have a heart rate monitor and I don't use the step counter. It does have GPS, the ability to store music on it's own, or the ability to control the music player on my phone. It can provide quick notifications of heart rate when it's connected to my chest heart rate monitor, which is a little more convenient than holding a phone in my hand when jogging. I can glance at notifications without grabbing my phone. Hell, I can glance at notifications even when I don't have my phone if I'm at a location that has Wifi (like my gym).
People finally realized most smart watches are useless unless you're also carrying the phone it's connected to, in which case, yeah, what's the point?
Because it's quicker and a little more discreet to glance at a wrist than pull out a phone?
Because they don't actually need to be connected to the phone to have a lot of functionality (Sony has built in GPS, 4 GB of storage for music, almost like it was meant to be able to be used when working out or running)
Because it's kind of nice to has watch where I can play with the way it looks.
Because a vibrating/buzzing watch wakes me up nicely without waking up my wife.
Because voice control via a watch allows me to control my phone when I'm driving and the phone is connected to the head unit of my car.
My main problem with 4chan is that that board software sucks. It's ugly, difficult to follow a thread, images often just get in the way, difficult to track who's saying what. Reddit at least has a clean interface.
It's not so much first season free and pay for the rest, it's more like a time delay. Kind of the opposite of what Hulu was, where you'd get the most recent episodes for free but needed Hulu plus to get older episodes, or standard cable movie pay-per-view before the movie moved to HBO/Showtime/Whatever.
Their 3rd party content selection isn't the best, but it's pretty good, but their original content (Alpha House, Man in the High Castle, Hand of God, Beta, Mad Dogs (yes, it's a remake of a British series, but it's still original content)) is really good (not sure about the children's shows however).
You mean overage protection included in the price, right? Or overage protection at no additional charge.
There's a difference between those things and free (I'm not even talking about the free/libre differences).
to simply see if it uncovers some of the "poorly understood" and "sloppily formulated" parts of our justice systems
Given the immense amount of laws and court cases, I can guarantee that there are contradictions and inconsistencies in our legal system. I don't know if you'd really want to find them all. I've often wondered what it would take to codify contracts and contract law, but I don't know if we'd really want that for criminal law.
Yes, it does. There are still hardware level functions that VMs will pass through for efficiency, e.g., 3d rendering via hardware graphics. Unless you're talking about QEMU level virtualization, VMs will still use the hardware to the extent possible. Intel has capabilities built into it's architectures to support these things.

Only if that function is enabled, which it isn't by default

To be 100% accurate, Nexus devices are yours.
It's a shame they've taken that away with their new Pixel line.

Just like they're going to inherit your phone, computer, and television.

free overage protection

So I'm allowed to take pictures of you whenever I want with my phone?

Sorry but that's ageist and sexist
But it's also statistically correct
bare metal really matter all that much any more

I don't think there's been any major record breaking cold extremes recently, has there?
I for one don't think we should attempt to control nature.
What about air conditioning and heating, or purifying water?
