The last time I checked, Toyota hybrids got much better gas mileage. That is, they are more fuel efficient even with the generator running. How is that not factored into calculation?

Congrats! Keep in mind, gasoline with ethanol quickly degrades, you have to add fuel stabilizer or you will have water in your gas tank I recommend Stabil 360. Also with such infrequent use of gasoline engine you have to do more frequent oil changes.

What are you talking about? Efficiency and deadliness of cavalry charges improved by more than 50%!

It takes time to undo fraud and waste of Biden administration. To me, going deeper into debt to buy solar panels and windmills from China makes zero economical sense. Biden's green new deal initiatives are nothing but subsidies for Chinese manufacturing.

It is exaggeration, you bought into propaganda. "Research" Trump slashed was all academic activism of LGBTQ issues. If we are going to lose to China, it is not because of cancelled gender studies grants.

That makes even less sense, with US pumping massively into AI (by building up compute), space tech, etc. It just Trump administration doesn't invest into green tech.

It is as valid proxy as cheese consumption per population or total toilet paper rolls produced in a year. Which is dubious at best. Solar panels are only tangentially related to nation building.

Disposable? My iPhone was purchased in 2020 and is still supported and works. How old is your Android phone?

Jobs was parking only one Mercedes in one handicapped spot at a time. Mark Zuckerberg or Sam Altman parking all the Mercedes, everywhere, all the time.

It is fitting for all times, as A LOT of historical figures were nasty. The "my feelings are hurt" was not even a consideration for wast majority of human history. Do you think Alexander the Great or Julius Caesar or Isaac Newton or Christopher Columbus were nice people?

Measuring this based on solar capacity is ridiculous. If it is a factor, it is a round-off error.

Early Christmas gift for "tech support" phone scammers.

I am looking forward to a day when MS no longer attempts to resurrect Clippy.

Well, obviously, because stablecoin is 1:1 USD ! Hooray, US debt is now non-existent. Another problem solved by technology!

>>Stablecoin issuers possess the power to create or delete billions in synthetic dollars instantly

This power is typically exclusive to central banks, which are backed by the Government. It can be used to regulate inflation and create boom and bust cycles. In turn, governments have a great deal of control and influence over central banks. Having unaccountable BigTech bros access this power is beyond concerning. Why, for example, Altman or Thiel should have power to put entire economies into recession?
