Yup, there's also the time factor.

There's an important study of boys at age six being diagnosed with ADHD.

At 6 yrs 1 month the odds are 50% higher than at 6 yrs 11 months.

Because they're both "age 6" but in boys that year is huge in development and all metrics are against the age-appropriate standard.

If you're on WoW or Roblox all your waking hours you will have retarded development vs. somebody who is in the world.

So you'll be more ADHD for a 15 yr old if you mostly miss age 14.

"Trust the experts" and sheet.

Nobody is that "stupid" in those departments.

The question should be what was the quid pro quo?

We can imagine what the PLA got out of it but what favor did Microsoft get?

And how high up the chain did it go? Who specifically approved the arrangement?

At least Microsoft probably has Windows 11 "backups" of the hard drives of anyone who might think of bringing charges.

Not sure if that strategy can be called stupid. Lots of other words apply.

"One Nation Under Blackmail" is a popular phrase.

For those who didn't follow it, it's not that it's a contact binary that is so neat in and of itself, it's that when they modeled it, they determined that, the collision that formed it was less than 5 meters per second (less than 11 mph / 18 kph). Like a parking lot fender bender, but with the cars being ~750 billion tonnes.

Please look up what 3rd world means.

Data centers need to pay for their own energy increase, be closed cooling systems, and not allow withing 5 miles of a residential area, and residence can't be built within 5 miles of a data center.

A contagion tube that slower and vastly more inconvenient. Plus a bigger polluter.
People pushing for everyone to get on the bus have no clue about buses.

It's just a matter of time. You aren't going to ae a car that receives less then 1 percent of sales. For example.

OH no, did the EV boogie man make an EV model of a car you like? tell, is this EV boogie man in the room with you right now?
Electric mustang concept is fine. There implementation was poor.

" Standards made your mind more limber and aware. "
lol, no.

lol, no. You watch too many youtube vidoes.

lol, no. don't be daft. Manual transmission is an unneeded skill, not a hard skill.
Do you think in the 70s and 80s there wasn't traffic?

Incorrect, 70+% of crime is committed by people over 25. Nice try.

No. This has nothing to do with EVs. It's an unneeded task anymore. People buying stick these day only do it for the attention of having stick.
Manual transmission cars sales have declined every years since 1980. In 1980 it was only 35% of sales.

It's a more difficult thing that people do no need, so yes it's dying . duh.
