Tesla has filed trademark applications for the term “Tesla Robotaxi,” after the company’s previous attempts to secure trademarks for its planned self-driving vehicle service hit roadblocks. The company originally applied in October 2024 for the trademark of the words “Robotaxi” and “Cybercab.” The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) told the company last month it needed more detail in order to allow a trademark for “Robotaxi,” a term that is used by a number of other companies lik

Let’s be honest. Cleaning your floors is one of those chores that’s easy to ignore until it’s impossible to. Maybe it’s a trail of crumbs you didn’t notice until you stepped in them barefoot, or pet hair gathering in the corners like tumbleweeds.
