And Harley Davidson.

They go hard on branding. They're one of the few motorcycle brands that let you go for a test ride (others might have a special event day at a dealership where you can ride around the parking lot). If you go for it, expect to be suited up in all the Harley leathers by the sales guy. It's not a motorcycle, it's a branded lifestyle where you ride around sometimes.

    Where were you when I complained we needed additional transmission lines to keep bringing more renewable energy online?

    I've strongly argued for this in the past.

    All these tech bros with AI datacenters are putting their spare couch change together to build HVDC lines across the continent, right?

    When a family in the global south uses coal to cook their food, they release CO2. When a billionaire flies around the continent on a private jet, they also release CO2.

    Do you consider the two to be equivalent in need or output?
