If Musk’s home battery becomes a reality, I’m guessing there are going to be plenty of homeowners who say FUCK YOU to their local power company and just fully disconnect from the grid.

Also, this has to be one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen...

Well, for starters you will get wet.

I recently explored the world of MiniDisc and have fallen in love. Maybe there is hope for its comeback as well?

As much as you'd love this to be a story about "crazy old Europeans!", its clearly the US who are idiots here.
