An even better idea would be to ditch the cretinous vertical fridges where cold air pours out as soon as you open the door, and go back to horizontal ones where, by its nature, the cold air just sits there.

Pretty fucking obvious to anyone with a normal brain aspie.
" How would such language constitute anything other than a distinction without a difference?"
Says the man without a job, kids, elderly parents or any kind of responsibilities.
Its not the physically changing the clocks thats the issue you idiot, its the general pointless hassle of it.
We're sick of it here in the UK too. The problem is some people who prefer lighter evenings want permanent BST, others like me who prefer lighter mornings want permanent GMT/UTC.
Its a known fact that a far greater proportion of CEOs are on the socio/psychopathic spectrum than the general population. Seems to me like this guy is way along it.
Are you sure? There's so much money tied up in circular loans and IOUs based on potential profits that I'm not sure they are.
For example: NVidia invests billions into OpenAI and Anthropic, who then use that money to buy NVidia products. Has NVidia actually made any money, or does the "demand" for the product simply drive up the speculative stock price?

Not everyone critical of stupid actions is a boomer including myself. Only a moron records a video in portrait mode.
Why spend even more money on more equipment that you have to store and maintain, and buy increasingly expensive fuel for, when you can dual purpose what you already have?
That's assuming you can even get fuel of course. When Sandy hit (last big hurricane in this area) most of the gas stations around here were inoperable for the first day or two because - you'll never believe this - but fuel pumps ALSO need electricity and there weren't enough generators rentals to go around. The stations that were operating over the next few days quickly ran out because the depot infrastructure, located on the shoreline, was damaged.
So sure, all you need is a generator, and an entire evening to wait in line for your rationed fuel hoping they don't run out by the time you get to the pump. So easy and much more convenient than just running an extension cord to the EV in your garage, which also runs silently, indoors, all night if you want.
If you want to go full prepper mode buy some solar panels and lay them out in the driveway or lawn. Even a kw or two worth (about 4-7 panels) would be able to easily cover your daily emergency needs with an EV battery to store it in.

The run time will obviously depend on the size of the battery, which will likely be available in at least two sizes. I'm willing to bet you can also set reserve limits so the truck doesn't completely discharge itself, and that further limits the run time.
Battery capacity has yet to be announced though.
All that said, I'd say at least 30kwh which will keep most homes running 2-3 days without any change in usage habits. With some very conscientious usage you can probably get a week out of it.

Odd how millions of videos on youtube are in HD landscape recorded on phones then. Perhaps those people have a clue unlike you and your gen z friends.
Thanks for playing, better luck next time.
Film CGI I imagine. Why pay an SFX company to do it when you can buy some time on an AI server farm where the director can do it himself with some prompts and change things while at home on the sofa?
I'm saying biology has been exposed to microparticles since life first evolved.
So we can assume you never go near a sandy beach then?
