I think saying things like "just can't compete" is clickbait and not a very realistic perspective on the situation.

Electric motorcycles have advantages and disadvantages when compared to gas motorcycles. There are tradeoffs with either choice. Yes, electrics are cooler but you give up significant range. Electric are quiet but some want loud pipes to save their lives. And so on.

Framing the debate as in this headline encourages extremes and absolutes and screaming matches which I do not find helpful.

You forgot the part where the early bird tells the night owl they're "lazy" for sleeping so late, which is complete and utter bullshit because you both slept the same amount.

IMHO increasing food insecurity across the globe will be one of the major issues driven by climate change. If crops fail repeatedly it is not gonna go well for society.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

But the company's not supposed to shut down.

I appreciate what this guy did, even though I don't own any apple earbuds.

I hope he or someone stats selling easily repairable and maintainable hardware and markets it as such. I think the marketplace would welcome it.
