I agree with the idea of small communities being interconnected with a massive distribution of public transit. I would love to walk everywhere from my daily necessities, but still making it easy to get to larger social centers for other needs. I think that should be the goal we strive for as a society.
Not what I said, but go ahead and make your absurd conclusions. Just for the record, I'm 100% for public transportation, EVs, renewable energy, and getting off the fossil fuel tit.
If we're ever going to pull people along the path to that future, we have to accept and acknowledge the exceptions. Not all the time, but don't ignore it like most articles I've read on the topic. I believe division occurs when people feel they are being ignored.
You summarized perfectly the problem I see with the "fuck cars" crowd. They never acknowledge the need for cars in some cases. America's population centers are definitely large cities where public transportation SHOULD be championed, but there has to be an acknowledgement of the rural population (around 15% in America I believe) where cars are a necessity.
Should a port scan by a bad actor be considered multiple hacking attempts or a single hacking attempt?
Another way to think about it: if a burglar tries various windows and doors to find an unsecured opening, is that considered multiple burglary attempts or a single burglary attempt?
Hahaha, love that you came with receipts. People are extremely shortsighted sometimes and think surviving a few bad years means they'll be around for a while. Companies can take a while to fail and can limp along for years before finally being sold off.
I had the same thought. I always wonder if these types of articles are written with the purpose of sowing negative feelings towards EV in order to maintain the fossil fuel status quo.
EVs are here to stay. Tesla's valuation drop has nothing to do with consumer appetite for EV and everything to do with the fact that they're overpriced, poor build quality, questionable design and engineering decisions, and the abyssal oversold failure of full autonomous driving.
Recently, For All Mankind, Season 1, the episode where the kid gets hit by a car and is in the hospital with a brain bleed. My son was in the hospital with a brain bleed right after his birthday and spent months in the hospital recovering. This episode hit real close to home.
I had to take a break half way through the episode and didn't finish it until 2 weeks later.
I just started watching this a week ago. Halfway through season 3. Fucking amazing show!
