Spent decades in North Dakota and Alaska.
Yes, 0C was still T-Shirt and Shorts weather until I got over 45 or so.
Went back to college, saw a dude still in shorts and tshirt at ~-20F, which is getting close to -20C.
I've now spent ~4 years in Florida, have worn pants like once.
I'm gonna pirate your Pion, by changing it to Prion, (for the ARRRRR).

Buggy Whip Makers would like a word with you.
While your post has some interesting tidbits, some even worthy, the conclusions are incorrect. You're blaming government intervention while proposing government intervention as a solution.
The more government is involved in economic matters, the more screwed up things get, because that's the nature of regulations. We just need ONE MORE regulation, and that will solve all the problems (and somehow creates additional problems).
Supply Demand curves exist in all markets. Pushing them around artificially is a recipe to inefficiencies.
With Passkeys, they have access to your stuff without any oversight by courts and discovery. There are ZERO 4 and 5th Amendment rights to stuff protected by passkeys. They can compel you to unlock your phone, and put your finger on the print reader, and facial scan you
Legally it is untenable how much access they have with Passkeys.
Passcodes cannot be compelled (XKCD hammer notwithstanding). 4th and 5th Amendments apply.
If passkeys are movable, then they can be duplicated and reused by nefarious actors as easy as this seems to indicate here.
I have not, and do not, and never will trust passkeys as primary security for anything.
Passkeys can be compelled legally, with and sometimes without a warrant. Passwords cannot be compelled at all. SCOTUS has already set the rules.
Details bore me. Describing a person's outfit in detail is filled with information I could not care any less about. Its not that I can't visualize, because I can and do.
I do understand why people DO like that kind of stuff, it's just not me.
Don't need a search warrant to dig though the trash can. People spew their data all over the place, and they just vacuum it all up.
I never really enjoyed reading long fiction. I read a lot, just not fiction.
I was made to read fiction in school (a long time ago), and it always bored me to read stories that had nothing I wanted. I don't find it entertaining or even relaxing.
I've read plenty of books, and in my younger years, used to read those thick IT tomes on Windows and Linux and
The lie (you've done nothing wrong) is revealed, by the factoid* that the average person commits several crimes every day, unwittingly.

This is just a kindly reminder to NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE.
Ever.

Then STFU.
Check for a nearby airport rental return. The rental agencies require a fill up within x distance or they charge even more.

You know what burns my ass?
It has happened under both.
Well. It would be a bit like the roadster launch into space. Experimental rocket, so great if it works, not bad if it does not.
That said, intercepting an orbiting satellite safely is a hard task.
You have a tendency to feel you are superior to most computers.
