The range is the issue, the "suburban and rural retards" probably have more expensive vehicles than NY and San Fran dwellers. But nobody wants a car that can't run on gas unless you live on an Interstate corridor, the 101, etc.
I'm going to have to go ahead and say "no" to any more connected devices until I can share in the revenue stream that monetizing my behavior and travels generates.
The US is absolutely nowhere near India's carbon emissions, nor China's. And none of the famously popular proposals such as Paris even address it.
It's cool, they already serve as our garbage dumps and contain the toxic waste that fuels your iPhone. Just saying the USA isn't anywhere near the peak of the problem.
Capitalism is entirely a concept within Marxism and doesn't exist outside that particular philosophy. Maybe that's why Marxists have reached total penetration and are having difficulty converting new useful idiots. Most people wised up to the re-definition of language and the predominance of neologisms and tuned it all out.
My explanation eventually leads back to Marxism and destruction of the family unit and other cornerstones of public order and decency which form the core of Enlightenment Western civilization. This isn't the proper place to critique Marxism. I'm sure everybody feels the chilling effects in their own workplaces and on the Internet, as well. Some things are just not fit to talk about outside certain welcoming spaces, like 4chan.
You were more interested in delivering a canned lecture. I don't have to justify myself to such a rude person. Sex work is NOT real work, that's not just an odd perspective, it's the majority opinion.
As one of the many people who hold that sex work is NOT real work, and is instead deeply exploitative and nasty, I'm glad that this is being done. Sex workers in recent times have taken over Reddit, the sex worker spam is unrelenting. Not sure if it's bot-driven or what, but it's unacceptable.
Everything you buy is from China. If China says it's the new standard, your iPhone or Android or Dell or HP or Playstation or Smart TV will support it.
X.org maintenance consists of merging drivers written by GPU companies. The software itself has been totally finished for many years. Im sure when IBM et al decide to formally relinquish control of X.org instead of pussyfooting around with this "maintenance mode" act, we'll see more progress though. Promising technologies such as Xgl were left by the wayside because X.org is supposed to be depreciated.
You can simply choose a regular gas or diesel vehicle made before these monitoring and spyware and tracking features, like driver monitoring cameras and OnStar type always-on tracking became available.
With electric, this is difficult, maybe impossible.
I've got this old HP-42s calculator here in front of me, which has no viable upgrade path, and adjusted for inflation it was more expensive than an entry level M1.
I have an HP-67 and an HP-97 as well, neither of which has any upgrade path and they each cost half as much as a new economy car when they came out.
