Even the non-British part isn’t the utopia that paragraph implies.

Basically zero because the humidity in the air diffuses away fast enough to not matter.

That baby was a total asshole.

That son of a bitch knows what he did.

I miss Madame Web.

If we didn’t already have the word yeet, I feel like we would have invented it to describe what that FJ did to our man there.

Ask not for whom the bait clicks, it clicks for thee.

I personally think it’s a brilliant idea.

I’m the owner of two EVs (we have zero gasoline in the house), and all of your criticisms are valid. My only counter would to be to also account for some other variables/benefits of EV ownership (although they are admittedly smaller). Examples: EVs require significantly less maintenance.

Couldn’t agree with you more on the acceleration. I’m terrified of every soccer mom driving an SUV / CUV that can do 0-60 in 4 seconds while she’s facing the rear seat screaming at Grayson, Jayden, Kayden, and Fayden.

Its named for the network itself, which the future civilisation uses as references on maps. The actual physical infrastructure has decayed into nothingness. So, also accurate.
