I’m happy! I didn’t know about it! Thx

Most of them I don’t get because I don’t use a user hostile operating system.

And it’s not really complexity, it’s deliberate choices being made.

The internet used to be run by technologists.

Now it’s run by project managers and web monkeys

Depends on how you would define "controls the world". Technically, I control the world (but only a tiny small speck of it).

You are simply disconnected. The rave scene is thriving.

This is not exactly a new tactic, and not something that would have to have been implemented without any cloud solution. A randomized 'kill -HUP' could do the same thing, for example.

How do you figure? Electric cars aren’t really that great for the environment. They still consume extreme amounts of resources.

Public transport is what should be promoted, not electric cars.

Full disclosure. I invested in TSLA in 2012 and made a substantial amount of money. I think Elon is a solid dude

I see solar power + batteries + electric vehicles as a big win for the environment, which explains how we arrived at different conclusions.

I do agree and I also prefer electric vehicles, but this massive usage of personal cars should absolutely be reduced. I live in a country with fantastic public transport and regularly travel 150km+ one way(daily, for weeks). To do this in a car would be insane. To do this in comfort on a train is amazing. Don't conflate "electric vehicle" with "personal carriage".

My colleagues wonder how I can spend so much time commuting and don't stay in a hotel like they do. That's because they think like car people. Because 3 hours in car is torture. Being away from your family 5 days a week is preferable to them. Sure, traveling so much is not ideal, but my point is that trains can be far, far superior to cars. Cars only make sense last mile and in rural areas, in my opinion.

I don’t know about the US marines,

But I served three years in the Swedish army and wasn’t taught to obediently follow command when it makes no sense. I was taught to disobey illegal orders.

I can’t imagine a fighter pilot has so little authority over their actions like you describe.

The US is the biggest market for TSMC. Their second biggest (potential) customer, is their enemy.

ASML have the upper hand.

Thanks for sharing, good advice!
