If in that position I don't think I would throw a chair at her , first I would go deal with the guy that killed my family and is out on the street...

If the judicial system can't provide an adequate solution, eventually people will just solve things themselves. Which to some extent already happens, depending where you live

    The graphics don't need to be hyper realistic, as long as they are good, have a consistent style and whatnot.

    Of course in general "realistic graphics" are considered good, and so it will be pursued but they are just sacrificing everything to maybe achieve a higher level of realistic graphics, which obviously self sabotages the game

    I think it is a bit naive to expect this being done right, because they aren't interested in doing this properly, they aren't interested in you being above the supposed age.

    The interest is surveillance, identification and tracking. Having a strong tracking point tied to a real ID .

    True , but where I live is almost nonsense buying anything else on the same price point, and even "basic" combustion cars are at almost the same price, some of the hybrids are even more expensive.

    If you are buying cheaper than "entry EV's" you are buying used, otherwise the EV wins , unless you personally have some situation where EV is not viable.

    Just a crazy market, you have the old brands selling a overall worse combustion car and asking the same as the cheapest EV's , without even mentioning the average combustion cars that are actually more expensive than the "entry " offerings on EV's

    The thing is , no matter how fuel efficient they are, you are just burning the stuff, finite and hard to get stuff. And there is also everything else about emissions, climate change and more that I don't really know

    Technology connections has an interesting video about renewables in general.

    Combustion cars don't need defending, they need phasing out.

    And it is simply dumb to insist on combustion cars at this point. Toyota had some kind of advantage with hybrids way back, then they went and squandered a bunch of money and time on hydrogen which is also dumb, maybe even dumber...

    Besides what people already said relating to the amount of time making time size relative , and memory affecting perception

    I also like to think adult life is full of too much work, the amount of time you are actually living your own life is way shorter compared to when you were a kid, a teenager and even young adult in some cases. Not forgetting that the time working isn't only the hours clocked, there is a lot of indirect work time, for example commuting .

    I wish I could work 30 hours a week, probably 6 per day, and still get a good salary/ money.
