Have you noticed how things seem to have started falling apart about the time they banned Tetraethyllead?
It's almost like stopping suppressing IQs gave enough people just enough extra mental horsepower to spin idiot conspiracy theories but not enough to see the obvious logical fallacies involved.
The most correct date function is yyyymmdd:hh:mm:ss
Anything else is stupid, just like DST.

For economy cars its cheaper and has less losses. Robot auto gets the losses to same but that costs more. The less losses part then matter(ed) for gas and to get better acceleration out of the small engines.
Goes for scooters and motorbikes too, cvt is nice and all but for same engine its kinda suck and cheaper smaller engine bikes that sucking kinda matters just for running your errands.
As for ev's so? Are the ev's going to kill small engined econoboxes? Does it even matter when you can just learn to drive it fairly quickly anyway?
Now some 3rd world weirdness perspective. I know some people who "can't" drive an automatic, not really sure why but they just scare it.

More regulation rarely fixes the problems and creates more problems that only large multinational government tied corporations can comply.

There is clipping in low bitrate Digital. It USED To be a thing back in the day of the very first digital playback devices (not CD players). CDs haven't changed since then.

A phone can be the same size too. What one needs to ask why is it a device.

Anyway the point is that you would need to pay for off-appstore installs which is just 'tarded all around and against the dma anyway, the whole point is the exact opposite.
Yeah places like finland have sort of bad air in very few places in few of the cities. Whereas in thailand when the pm2.5 index levels are commonly over 150 going to 200 in ALL of the rural areas. For reference in rural finland it would be something like 5 to 10 (and i have firsthand experience for both of these)
Australia would have great air in most of the country because most of the country is far enough from indonesia. Theres no forests to light on fire in inner australia anyway.
