Back up your user data (use SMS Backup and Restore and Call Log Backup and Restore if those matter to you, as they're not in e regular user data folders). Look up root method on XDA. It's not too hard on most devices. They'll even tell you how to recover from a bad flash, if possible.
Just like the Da Vinci. Everything it does is under the control of the surgeon.
I am pretty unimpressed with the Da Vinci results vs standard laparoscopic surgery in most cases - it adds expense and time (setup/teardown), without really improving outcomes. These, at least, offer something you just couldn't get otherwise.
Still tied to the SIM somehow. When I bought a Nexus 6P from Google, I didn't tell Verizon anything. I dropped in my existing SIM and started using it - and yes, it works just fine on CDMA and 3G.
Yeah, well, it's an opportunity to sell a bunch of new modems. What should be happening is that we should have a cheap, reliable standard for data transmission at low speed that comes as a standard interface on everything, so that when you need to change the way you transmit (say, a new frequency or underlying wireless technology) for these low-data-rate devices, you just replace a fairly generic (and cheap) modem. We could call it... RS-232.
Yeah, once they're price-competitive I'll definitely keep them in mind. Do you find that the cost of the electricity is substantially less than the cost of gas, and if so what are local prices on gasoline and electricity? My electricity is pretty cheap, around 11 cents per kWh, but my gasoline is too...
What if you had to pay as much extra in tax as you would pay in gasoline taxes if you had a straight ICE? (I know the latter isn't really a huge number, probably on the order of $100-300/year, but it's coming at some point, and we might as well account for it now.)
Don't waste your breath on trolly AC... 1000 miles each way at IRS rates is $1070, for two people, in first-class comfort, with no rental costs, no TSA crap, and the ability to stop and do anything I want at any time. On that 3000+ mile trip, we were planning day-to-day where we would go and what we would do. If something interested us, we stopped.
"Very long"? I not infrequently drive three hours to the nearest major city, do some necessary business, eat a nice meal, and turn around and drive three hours home. Six times a year, at least; often more. Plus two to four trips of five hours each way, plus one that involves really high mileage - I did 3000 miles in eight days recently.
A pure EV would make a great commuter car for me, because I live really, really close to work, but that's another car that I have to garage (no space; something's going to have to park outside) and pay insurance and taxes on (not cheap), on top of which it's extremely expensive for what it is. I don't buy cars only for my daily use case; if I did, I'd just drive something tiny and cheap, because all I really want for that is climate control and protection from the elements. I need something that can do 800-1000 miles in a day, and EV's are nowhere near that level yet.
And as a corollary to my other reply, what city-dwellers are buying with those rural road programs is cheaper everything. Drive I-81 some time. The traffic is extremely truck-heavy, because they're using it to move goods from the Gulf Coast to the Northeast without having to go along I-95 (or even I-85). It wasn't built for local usage.
No roads to farms = no food or raw materials to cities. Farmers can eat their own produce; city dwellers can't. Cities create wealth - but how much wealth they create is mostly dependent on how much raw material they have.
Simple example: Why are Boston and Philadelphia smaller than New York? All were prominent cities in the 1700s. The big thing that kicked off NYC was the Erie Canal. It channeled the enormous productivity of the entire Great Lakes region of the US through NYC. Likewise, why is Chicago so big? Because that's where you portage from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi, opening up an enormous amount of the lower 48.
If minidisc hadn't had SCMS, and had been agnostic as to "is it music or is it data", it would have had a long run. Probably would still have some uses today, in fact, for backing up modest amounts of important data in physical form. Cassettes... Well, they were cheap, the hardware was cheap, and you could easily power them with standard disposable batteries. If you wanted to go interview remote populations deep in the jungle, and weren't too particular about sound quality, they would probably be a good choice today.
You don't get good at flying low, at night, following a target, in blackout mode unless you do it over and over again. Just standard training flights with a little fun thrown in.
I knew a former US Army helicopter pilot. He had great stories about stuff they did. One example: find a car driving down a lonely rural road at night. Approach it with lights off. Settle in at low altitude and fifty yards behind it. Turn on the several-million-candlepower search light, then immediately bank to one side. Turn the light off. Run away. Watch the local papers for UFO sighting reports.
Yeah, sure, you can take the entire colonic mesentery, because you can live (though unpleasantly) without a colon. Taking the mesentery of small bowel, except in small quantities, might not work so well for you.
They've even lost a lot of the great design stuff. My wife's Magic Keyboard just died, and got a Magic Keyboard 2 to replace it. They sized up the left and right cursor keys to be full size instead of half-height, meaning that you can't just feel for the low spots in the bottom right corner to center your hands on the cursor keys.
It does, in fact, participate quite heavily in warding off disease. The mesentery is full of lymph nodes. And if you take it out, you've just removed the blood supply to your gut. Good luck living with your dead bowel.
You might have a better argument with omentum - it's something you can do without if you have to. Even there, though, it serves a purpose, just as the spleen, appendix, and gallbladder all do.
No, the MDA port on the computer was female, and the serial port was male.
I get your point, but there is something to be said for continuity. In the same way that there are USB<->almost everything adapters, the 3.5 mm audio jack is almost universal. Getting rid of it is A Big Deal.
I'm pretty anti-Apple; they have crippled their devices to encourage lock-in (you can't send a group message to more than 10 people unless all are iOS users). But there's a reason I'm running a Nexus 6P, and it's not because I thought Huawei makes great phones: it's the monthly security updates and two-year version guarantee.

So you're getting 33.6kbps? Damn, I can't even imagine how you deal with that these days. Too much bloat in web pages.
I thought you were joking. I thought, how could you miss the Pacific? But no. Thank goodness they realized the mistake before touching down.
Not much of a margin for error there, though, especially if you have a tailwind.
Runway is too short for jets there. He could helicopter over, but helicopters are risky ways to get around.

That was my thought. Or perhaps there's a pseudo-EMEI built into the SIM that the phone uses to identify itself.

Nexus 6P Verizon user. Never asked me for permission. Tethered plenty, though I've never abused it.

Getting monthly security updates? I am.
Monochrome (Looks exactly like a Serial port)

And yet 7.1.1 is the current version...
