This report makes it sound like they had a video call with camera on, vs other reports where they recommend people have camera on because they didn't
also used AI tools to create a profile picture and match that face during the video conference calls.
This doesn't sounds like the video was on / faked only that they had a call where the profile picture was used.
Will it get done if it costs too much to get someone to do it? Do I think I can do it?
If I added up all of the home, auto and technical maintenance I have done in the last month as farmed out to a professional I would be broke ALL THE TIME or the things would not have gotten done.

Your examples would have more similarity with suggesting a vegetarian diet as an alternative to a mix or most meat diet. That would be a functional alternative, like suggesting a different OS or Browser.
Veganism more like a political statement that if you eat meat your are a bad person for harming animals. All vegans may be vegetarians but not all vegetarians are vegan.
I will admit there are many OS and Browser purists that might be more like vegans telling you, you are bad for choosing the one you currently use. There are FOSS purists that only tell you to use FOSS because it is NOT commercial not because the software is better for what you need.

I have also been using iPhones since the iPhone 3G. Long before it existed on Android it was very easy to movie everything from your old phone to the new one, first via iTunes desktop then later via iCloud.
Family sharing for apps and family backups pooled in iCloud is also very convenient.

Likely has more to do with the cost of 1-2million per station vs 250,000 to 500,000 for a typical EV fast charging station
MS had this implemented originally in NT4 then started allowing more drivers direct access for performance.
They tried again with VISTA but McAfee and Symantec cried to the EU and forced MS to back down.
Apparently apple got away with implementing it however.
