So glad no one else is making a vehicle like that. Oh, you mean different techniques, not ugly as fuck and designed by a preteen who loves minecraft?

Sounds like some of my relatives, but I'm German. No assholes there...

This is why human rights should apply to humans, and not citizens.

Most fast food is high or excessive on macronutrients (protein, fat, carbs), but low on micronutrients and fiber.

Careful, the programmers may rise up!

About 56% of the world lives in urban settings. I wouldn't call 45% of the population a niche market, however I would say that even a significant portion of the rural population could be better served with non-car transportation options. Removing fossil fuels as much as possible from our energy use will still be vital to averting a major crisis, and alternatives will need to be found for those 45%, too, especially since they will use proportionally more transportation energy than their urban counterparts.

Brake pads tend to last longer due to regenerative braking. The rest of your point stands.

Well, after doing some reading, you may be right. I didn't hear about the issues brought up, and Hawkings responses in 2004. It seems the consensus is that information is conveyed somehow, with some limits on practicality. That may still raise issues with determining whether you're in a simulation, if the capability to determine if you are is beyond the reach of your technology. At that point though, the only way you can falsify the hypothesis is to increase your capabilities to the point where you can test that, and I don't think we're there now.

I'm sure some people find it disturbing or terrifying. Certainly not all. As for whether people are into it or not, it's their life and I'm not going to tell them what to do.

That's the first couple steps on a long and possibly terrifying road. Sometimes not knowing is more comfortable. You've been warned.

Looks like you read the title and not the included text. You could find your SO in a crowd by smell alone? I don't think so. Being able to identify your partner by smell if they're standing in front of you, sure, I can buy that.

Energy is not information. You are misinformed.
