Ah, I believe I understand now. Here's an older tweet from Musk which mostly explains it: "Crush core is aluminum honeycomb for energy absorption in the telescoping actuator. Easy to replace (if Falcon makes it back to port)."

Musk tweeted that the rocket booster used "almost all of the emergency crush core" which, according to the article, "helps soften the landing".

Can someone explain what this means? What is an emergency crush core?

Please don't remove the headphone jack!

Title is probably misleading many people. This new feature does not do standard calls to phones. From what I can tell, it's more of an "in-amazon-network" voice chat, between amazon apps/devices.

#1 solution that I've been using, is setup an ifttt skill, then "alexa, trigger call my phone"

According to the article, it's not real telephone calls, yet.

Getting people to physically visit their B&M store, for whatever reason, is hugely valuable.

- FLAVOR: Desktop

- HEADLINE: Full VR Support

- DESCRIPTION: VR isn't just for games. And using VR for productivity is a no-brainer. Ubuntu should be the go-to operating system for the most immersive VR desktop experience. Ubuntu should lead the VR-on-the-desktop revolution by supporting desktop VR (by working with Steam/FBOculus/MS/Google/Samsung as necessary to get the hardware and drivers correct and plug-n-play).

Yet even in chrome, the slowness of Asana is just too painful for me to use.
