If the automakers stop providing AM radios for cars, you can be assured that some engineering group will manufacture a radio that fits into the same spot on the dash, and it will play AM, FM, and also be an android cellphone device. Most likely, the AM radio signal may be received by a host converter and re-transmitted as an android application. It may be received in the car as an android signal, but it is truly AM radio, if we define AM radio as "talk radio".

I gave up assembly language to write C, because C has an easy learning curve, and the C idioms are easy to understand and follow. Rust is an assembly language with major concentration on ownership, and sharing. Most of the time is not spent solving problems, but solving Rust grammar problems. What I would eventually like to see, is a C to Rust converter. Then we could use rust to manage any mutable/sharable/ownership issues. Or perhaps, we could have a RUST to C converter. As a programmer with 20 years of C. I can write code that is anyday as good as the best or RUST.

Within the USA, this is still true.!!!

HE IS WORKING TO A BUDGET. YOU CANNOT SPEND MONEY YOU DO NOT HAVE. Bravo Mr DeJoy

May I also suggest that Ohio's unpolluted waters must remain unpolluted. And the plant must be flooding, hurricane and tornado resistant. Finally, the plant must have 24/7 clean electric power. Can Ohio deliver on these needs?

The global warming is not affected significantly by the oil companies. Yes, they are a factor for pollution, which does contribute to global warming, but the major factor is the stripping of forests. Take away thousands of square miles of forest for agriculture, wood harvesting (without replanting), and and city expansion, and you change the surface of the earth to ward off heating the core. When that core gets warmer, the north and south poles experience melting. So, what are Americans to expect by 2050. a) It will be too hot to live in the south, and Midwest in summer. Definitely too hot. b) People will be migrating north towards Canada, even as it too gets warm summers. Canada may be invaded by the USA, looking for agricultural land and place to build cities and escape the heat of summer. c) The ocean is expected to rise by 3 meters (10feet), Many American cities against the ocean will lose their downtowns (The old part where the cities started). d) Expect more extreme summer/winter climate changes, including hurricanes and tornadoes and cyclones. I hope that my grandkids are able to accomodate themselves, beginning in the 30 years hence.

JR and Tucker Carlson are accomplices to murder. The two have listeners who are unable to use google and determine if the vaccines are useful or ineffective or dangerous. The vaccines are not the latter two. They are not ineffective and not dangerous. Noone has died from the vaccine, but then 1/50 of non-vaccinated who contract Covid do die. 1 in 50 with vaccines applied in hospitals has reduced the number to 1 in about 100 (1/100). If you think of a high school of 700 students, that school will have deaths of 7 to 10 students. My question is, why did you take the polio vaccine and the smallpox vaccine. The smallpox was given to babies who could not as yet walk. Polio vaccines were given to kindergarten children to protect them. And here we have idiots that want to gamble the reset of their life on surviving the covid virus.

YOU NEED UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, Then your annual cost will be around 2.5k/yr per taxpayer. Children should be included in that 2.5k/yr until the child completes university, or age 24.

Before I will watch a Netflix movie, i will explore daily output from CNN. I will look at some YouTube videos covering topics of interest to me, (Computer Science, University level courses (math, psychology, humor, ...) I will suffer though the adverts, as the information offered via You Tube, is almost as good as what one gets from Wikipedia.

A Selfie image can be provided by cellphone, but what happens when the person only has a desktop and no webcam? My wife does not like the computer. Do I get a selfie of her and put it in front of the camera or whatever, when, as her partner, I am dealing with the IRS on her behalf. What if I am an accountant that does your taxes. Whose selfie do they want to have? It seems to me that this selfie idea has not been well thought out.

Here in Quebec, educators and government looked at the students and came to the conclusion that there was a need of a community college that offers a broad range of education. A student completes the CC with the 1st level of university, and as well, for those who choose, an orientation into a trade (some apprenticeship), In other words, we are graduating smart electricians, plumbers, policemen, nurses, etc.... Some students continue to a bachelor degree and hence to dentist, teacher, medical doctor, professional engineer, MBA etc. In other words, a young person can choose to go towards skilled trades, early in his career and not waste 3 additional years of university.

There is no "money" in free software. As a retired old fart, I can't part with my pension pennies. I did produce freeware, but noone who stopped to post a "thank you, it is in my library as useful". But aside from retirees, corps who take the software, repackage it and make a buck from it, should share in the benefits. If they do not, free software will cease to exist.

How long before the state governments adds an annual permit tax on the truck plates tax? That added tax would be equivalent to the loss of gasoline taxes if the truck was using gasoline. It could also be a mileage tax. Who knows? But a tax has to come or the roads will be potholes with asphalt around the holes.

The travel distance (mileage or kilometrage) is a simulator output. In real life, there is traffic, and stop lights and variable speed requirements. But it is coming... All car makers are making the transition.

When the cost of living is such that many families have parents, each with two jobs, and one is raising kids, Sex is a weekend only activity. I suspect that internet activity (such as You-Tube, Special interest web forums, news feeds, TV and the like are another reason for the decline. But one should really look at age bands. For example, under 25, 25-30, etc. and match those bands to income / security levels. The day of the wife staying home to do the child-rearing and cleaning has is rarely full filing. With one or two kids, a full time "homemaker" life leaves too many empty hours --ergo put the pre-schoolers into daycare, and look for a job that allows intellectual stimulation. -- all that takes away interpersonal time. Fatigue at end-of-day is the other contributor to sex limited life.
