So a 40,000 dollar model three will have a range of closer to 200 miles that 300 miles in 7 years, given the real world test put the new range well below 300 miles. This is likely not an issue if you can charge the car every day, like you have to do with your phone, but it does mean that you are only going to be able to drive 3 hours between charges on the highway. And it takes an hour to charge best case scenario

Meanwhile, my gas engine still gets 100% of the fuel efficiency it had when I bought it while EV fanbois are applauding 85% range.
So it gets 100% of the 25% max efficiency for a combustion engine? Not much to brag about. And pro-tip: you're not getting anywhere near 100% of new-vehicle efficiency after 7 years.

You can tune an IC engine and not need to replace it. Also, the overall range of an IC engine does not plummet like a Tesla does in cold weather. I have had many cars go from new to 150 to 180k with only a few percent drop in fuel efficiency. Perhaps you need a better mechanic?

Remember that satellites are only visible at dawn and dusk, when the sky is dark from the ground but you're still near the terminator, and can still see reflected sunlight if it's high enough. Later at night, any satellites will be fully within the Earth's shadow cone and will be practically invisible.
With that many satellites you might spot the occasional occultation, and telescopes still have real problems, but for you and I and migratory animals the night sky will be unchanged for nearly the entire night.

Saturns were basically GM-built Nissans, plus the plastic doors, and that was a time when Nissan designed cars extremely well. I'd rather have a Nissan from the 90s than literally any other marque. Granted, there's a rat's nest of vacuum hoses under the hood of the sexiest Nissan of that era (The Z32 300ZX TT) but it's no more fiddly than anything else from that time, because emissions. And what I'd choose specifically would be a 1991-ish 240SX fastback, which has a sweet DOHC 2.4l four banger that will do around 300HP on stock internals with a turbo kit — the same output as a 300ZX, only much lighter (2700lb instead of 3400.) And the five lug models will take 300ZX wheels, though I'd want some aftermarket ones. Despite the MacPherson front suspension, the 240SX is one of the best-handling cars ever made, with its 51% front weight distribution and multilink rear... and optional limited slip. It's trendy to swap the rear diff and the front end group from the S15, as the stock diff is 4.08:1 with a viscous limited slip if any, while the S15 had a helical limited slip at 3.73:1. S13 top speed is gear-limited to 124MPH.
Er, where was I? Anyway, Saturns were built for keeps, if you did the maintenance. And if you got one with a four banger, there's ridiculous amounts of room under the hood. The battery is damned near as big as the engine. I'd rather have a real Nissan though

More realistically, they do not know much and mostly it is about Hong Kong, which means those agents talked about are technically counter intelligence operatives, so secret police not spies. As for operations in Australia, yeah well, everyone already knows about them, Chinese companies seeking greater political influence to promote their bottom line, standard modern corporate operating procedures and do not even touch the level of corrupt USA influence which has managed to drag Australians diplomatic reputation into the gutter with the USA.
Calling counter intelligence operations spying, will not go down well and Hong Kong is a part of China so, what are they even claiming. It is illegal for the government of China to hunt down USA and UK spies in China, hmm, OK then just stop pretending and let the nukes fly.
There are mainland China operation in Hong Kong, to root out USA and UK espionage agents and collaborators and to make the Hong Kong government strike/protest/riots as bad as possible to last as long as possible to pay back the Hong Kong government and the UK and US governments are helping.
A useful defectors has digital keys and they keep that bit of info quite. This is of course a low level propaganda event, hence publicity. Note the key to influence is to gain control of corporations who gain control of government, stopping that ends the problem. Corporations should clearly have zero influence over government, as clearly that is the core source of espionage operations, interesting thing that, all about the benjamins apparently, the dollar speaks the loudest in espionage circles.
I recommend a government managed public usable, anonymous forum, where registered citizens can share the opinions, a matter of public record. This to replace the current corrupt state of affairs of corporate for profit run forums, a core part of foreign espionage operations, which can then be ignored because the public forum, hosted and protected, and only accessible by legally registered users, listed as citizen of that country or as foreign, hosted by https://www.aph.gov.au/About_P... and held as a matter of public record, the opinions of citizens on all matters of government. No more paid political ads. Politicians can give their speeches which and they distributed by the Parliamentary library for comment by registered users. The end of lobbyists.

Perhaps this force dominates the actual vast free space of nothingness between galaxies.
An imbalance in the concentration of this force could force atoms to clump together and actually form galaxies.
Then everything in between the galaxies would have a high concentration of the protophobic force that would continuously accelerate the galaxies apart causing the universe to keep expanding faster.
