However, speaking to Khaleej Times, some electric car owners worried about how far they can travel in their EV before finding a charging station and then having to wait through a long charging session.

The two bottom-placed teams in the ILT20 fought tooth and nail before the Warriors won the contest by seven runs, thanks to the nerveless display of death bowling by UAE youngster Muhammad Jawadullah. Needing to defend 16 runs in the final over, the 24-year-old left-arm pacer gave away just eight runs as the Warriors, who had made…
One week ago, if you had asked me if I planned on getting an Apple Vision Pro, I would have scoffed. Why try typing on a clumsy digital keyboard when I could work much faster on a real one? Why watch a movie on a flat screen inside a headset when I could just turn on my TV? Wildly expensive, superfluous tech is just not for me.
