i would never trust a self driving car
i like how Microsoft has a partnership with the NFL
The surface has become an important 'realtime' sports analysis tool. And it's especially a problem when it doesn't work.
Google is testing self-driving cars that will operate well in the rain, exactly when you need them to work.
Kind of dumb that China builds cities that noone lives in.
Very cool tiny houses in Portugal. Need to be especially tiny to live there.

self driving cars can be a good and bad thing because the computer they use could be hacked and cause many accidents
I wouldn't rely on a self driving car. Many more accidents can happen on a self driving car than a regular car. It would need a lot of work to function well.
self driving cars could be a good and bad thing because you can't depend on a car to save your life. Thing good thing about it is that it can drive itself but I wouldn't feel 100% safe about it.
I find it pretty cool that an NFL player can look at the game over again on a Microsoft Surface and be able to see in detail what went wrong in the Patriots game or what happened exactly if something was misunderstood. Also Microsoft is tweaking with the Surface and trying to improve its quality in bad weather and trying to fix what ever it is that's going wrong with it.Also, a man named Carl Reese set the speed record for crossing the country on a motorcycle, riding from LA to NYC in just under 39 hours. I find that to be such an incredible achievement and a very adventurous and fun one to do. He must feel pretty accomplished. Also Google has been wanting to test out their self-driving cars in wet weather, especially in Kirkland, Washington. I find it cool that Google has been expanding their variety to see how well these self-driving cars do under the rain, and how this can possibly lead to our future when we talk about cars on the street and the possibility of less traffic. In Kangbashi which is in China it's one of hundreds of sparkling new cities sitting relatively empty throughout China. It's completely empty because not many people could afford living there and some just didn't want to leave their homes where they were already familiar with their surroundings.The city itself though is so breath taking and eye catching. I find the lonely empty houses in Portugal to be almost cartoon like, It'd be so cool live in one, but it's what the house itself tells us when we look at it. Our imaginations can goo wild when looking at one, and they are so unique that you can't really help but stare. They are just fun to look at in general and I find them to be extraordinary.
It's insane to ride 2,829 miles from Los Angeles in almost 39 hours from LA to NY. Reese has been doing lots of records around the US.
Carl Reese is very smart for adding an extra fuel cell to increase the range of miles and led lights to see more at night.
