Ha ha, we are already living the Jetsons.

Many people have central heat and air, and a closed in dome environment of their home. Where they go to their closed in garage and get into their space fairing craft, proceeded to maneuver themselves to the tall skyscraper in which they pull into a closed garage controlled by central heat and air systems. They go to work for the day and go home. Now, of course many people work outside of the office, but that is never covered in the Jetsons.

Everyone is always wearing space suit of some type to protect from the outside harsh environment.

I use a lot of software. Buggy as all get out apps gets tossed for apps that work.

Being stuck with buggy software from the 1940’s sounds worse to me.

Sorry for those involved.

Is anyone else tired of “training” soldiers killing and crashing flying vehicles.

Training at night through a flight path.

I smell something.

NOAA stopped the ferry service between small Hawaiian islands, so that the those that were unable to afford a plane ticket would be stuck to one island at a time. Many on The Big island were I lived local, flip flops and community dwellings, the hit for inner island transit had taken a hard tole, with many long time locals were leaving.

The reasoning... boats were messing with Whales. I think the Whales have a mind of their own.

2012 prius-c, physical air-conditioning temp knob, physical buttons for everything. Added CarPlay receiver, and it's the perfect vehicle. No electronic "syncing" to be done. Just works.
