i suspect that's a big part of ops point. without proper transport alternatives (eg. bus, bike etc) you're fucked.

our strange treatment of animals

we anthropomorphise and infantilise our pets, yet boast about the animals we eat who've had legit insanity level cruel lives thanks to our systems.

[ not saying fussing over your pets is bad, i love it too, just the contrast is whiplash++ ]

lack of body autonomy

hint: most lqbqtia rights, reproductive rights, medical/medication rights, are all the SAME RIGHT:

your body, your choice.

it is constantly under attack, and diffused into separate arguments when its the one right effecting all these issues. newsflash: when it comes to my body, your unwelcome opinion, religious or otherwise, ain't worth the air its vibrating through.

slippery slope gatekeeping laws

making harmless x illegal because a subset of x might lead to harmful y. if y is bad, then enforce your ban on y, and fuckoff trying to use it as an excuse to control x₀, x₁, x₂ etc.

and how just by buying gas you are automagically a ‘more important’ road user than anyone else.

i get that as a general optimisation, the avg speed of vehicles should be considered from a routing perspective.

but its been entirely normalised that cars are "important" and everything else is inherently secondary to them. which is ofc pure bs, but most people assume it by default.

and we seemingly need endless war to keep getting it out of the ground

expect they've found a way to 'profit' off the collapse already. might be one of the reasons they're doing nothing to stop it

its probable (imo)

the supposed employee performance metrics is only the lure.

the main prize for m$ is to associate use of m$ products WITH employee performance.

ie. take 20x longer to do something because you had to use a m$ product, rather than do it quickly and easily in some FOSS software.

that's a win for m$ and everyone else loses (employee/employer/foss etc)

at a quick guess i'd say right now you're probably correct.

though wireless power methods have the future potential to scale wired delivery out of the park.

i think this concept is probably something along those lines: in the future it could do some pretty awesome stuff, but it's complicated to do it right, so we kind of need to start now so that by the time its ready to shine its actually mature enough to do so.

Which ML model, is it proprietary? which service would handle the requests? which servers would do the computation? etc

Most here are seeking freedom away from the corporate tech monsters, not to give them a seat at the table.
