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. 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.
Well, yes. For many years, presidential candidates, both Democratic and Republican, referred to the United States as "the indispensible nation". And my reaction was always, "Doesn't that mean the US is a single point of failure for civilization?"
We are currently performing an experiment which addresses this question: can the US enjoy the benefits of soft power without the cost? That's the whole point of obeying *norms*. No individual force is going to punish you if you are treacherous, mercurial, foul-mouthed, disrespectful and generally unpredictable. Everyone will punish you.
I think an inevitable cost of this experiment will be that the world will decide that the US can't be a single point of failure for global democracy any longer. In many ways, that's something that will be good for us. But it's also going to cost us in painful ways. When the world decides to move away from the dollar as the international reserve currency, you will see both inflation and higher interest rates on everything from credit cards to mortgages, to business loans that will offset the export advantages. We will need *more* business investment to shift the economy to producing low value goods again, so the transition will be rocky.
It's not just up to them, it's up to copyright law.
And why do you think you speak for all book authors over all time?
People like you think libraries should be shut down, fair use removed, and no one allowed to resell a book they read.
Literally the logical conclusion to your post.
I suppose I need to pay you every time I point someone to you works to?
Do I have to pay you when I finish you book and give it to someone else?
