Today's batteries are still a weak link in off grid solutions. They contain costly and rare materials and upon disposal, an environmental menace. Can we start looking at hydrogen storage as a battery source? It can be made easily and only dumps oxygen in the air.

We can't regulate everything. Encouraging people to think critically and make their own conclusions is a better holistic path.

Why is a grid important? Perhaps investing in off grid options (mass manufactured off-grid homes, solar panels, etc...) would prove to be a better investment for the consumers in the long run. The grid concept requires heavy investment and involvement over the long term.

If it is in the shrink-wrap is the EULA enforceable? Wouldn't it still be preowned?

I like a solar option and would love one for my residence. However, I don't need the government mandating my use of it or my non-use of it. Thank you for trying to help, government; I will now go about my business without you babying me.

Agreed. Mod parent up. Navigation services should be able to rely on the data provided by municipalities. If the data does not reflect reality, the data should be updated or the law driving the data should be updated.

We have an educational system which is designed for the middle of the bell curve. It fails miserably for outliers. However, because the measurement to receive funds is based on graduation rate and they are mandated to teach all manner of fluff, schools will push kids to graduate (regardless of actual learning and education) and force them to take unwanted (and unnecessary) courses. The educational system is a waste of time and money and serves as a propaganda arm for non-educational related agendas. Please refund my tax dollars and let me use them to educate my children.

No. That's the point. We won't see it.
