After the first patch, it worked well enough on everything but PS4.

you can't prove that
Because the Roman people are suffering, because slaves have taken all the work, because nobles have taken all the land, and because the streets are filled with the homeless and the starving.
less of a 'disaster' than it is a 'good start'
I think its more likely that YouTube will shut down and be replaced by nothing. Its existence has never made sense as anything but an act of charity from an organization with tech resources to burn.
Its framed as being done to "strengthen their financial resilience", but I suspect the motive is to slow down the rate at which banks are creating new money, driving up inflation. If these bank regulations pass, we can lower taxes without blowing up the inflation rate. Or, the Federal Government can spend more without increasing taxes, keeping the inflation rate the same.
The banks hate it because they would issue fewer loans, and therefore make less money. Its takes money out of the pockets of bankers and puts it into the hands of the Federal Government.
I'm generally in favor of markets deciding what gets produced, i.e. letting the banks judge which businesses asking for loans have the best chance of paying them back. However, the market has some blind spots where we're all better off if the government steps in - for example, defense spending, infrastructure, and R&D (investing in NASA has historically provided incredible RoI).
That the Fed is even considering this new approach suggests to me that there is a perceived need for a rush of government spending in the near future, and the current geopolitical landscape suggests it will be spent on weapons.
The reverse could be true also - the EM coming off the plasma conduits could interfere with the operation of brushless motors.
how dare you suggest its parody
the church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, marinara sauce be upon him, is just as legitimate as any other religion
Right on. No matter how well meaning people may be, if we misunderstand the issues then we're unlikely to craft working solutions.
The only comment I would add to yours is that local economies are interconnected with the global marketplace. If the price of oil goes up overseas, domestic producers will increase their prices too. Additionally, the cost of energy is baked into the price of imported goods. Even if a country were completely energy independent, a spike in the price of energy on the global markets would increase price of just about everything at home.
Gotta begin describing how weird it is somewhere though. Like, isn't it weird how one of the people those characters are supposed to represent is actually a Russian puppet, but the artist put the Russian flag behind the other one?
I measure 50 miles from the old border, and assume the new one is at least 5 miles closer.
Has Ford ever made a good EV? AFAIK, compared to the competition, Ford's EVs take too long to charge, for too little range, and they cost too much. Perhaps there is simply a lack of interest in the low-quality offerings they've plopped onto the market so far?
