This is so sweetly false-confident, it's hilarious. Let's pick up on one small piece to demonstrate: "Pomo always wants to label victims and perpetrators. It is never women themselves making choices. Like how nurses are mostly women, and engineers are so often men. Nobody says women are oppressing men out of nursing."
Quite right, nobody says woman are oppressing men out of nursing. Why could that be, I wonder? Is there another, possibly more prestigious clinical profession which men have greater access to than women, and which may explain why men don't become nurses? Tough one, I can't think of any such profession. I mean, it's not like doctors are paid shit loads more than nurses, have greater prestige, and are a profession to which men have demonstrably better access, etc etc. Of course not.
You know what I don't understand? Why you can't read properly: I didn't ask a question, stupid or otherwise. I made an observation. Here's a clue: questions have these things called question marks at the end of them. HTH.
As for the substance of what you wrote: I understand the rationale. I just don't think it's good enough. Which is what led to my observation.
Jesus fucking wept, you people are stupid. Obviously, Apple doesn't pursue every possible avenue for profit, because some routes to profit offer minor short term benefit for lots of long term downside. For example, Apple doesn't sell access to consumers' data because it wants to sell devices to consumers, and consumers' trust for Apple is worth a shit load more than their data.
Yes, physics, that subject so notorious for its physical demands on participants. I mean, that's why Stephen Hawking was the finest athlete of his generation: how else could he have succeeded? And of course theoretical physics is the most immersive of all the branches of physics. Feel free to demonstrate your commitment to the cause by creating your own Schwarzschild wormhole and then jumping inside.
As it patently obvious, schools do not do much by way of immersive learning, because it's not an efficient method of learning, say, history. Or maths. These fears of technology are as overblown as the promises that others make. Obviously, what makes most sense is to use a range of pedagogical styles, tailored to the needs of the student, the nature of the subject etc.
And incidentally, screens can actually be used to engage in the real world for learning, and can make for much *more* immersive experiences than traditional methods.
Um. Not to point out the bleeding obvious, or anything, but taking away subsidy today doesn't account for the investments of subsidies in various tech types in the past. So it doesn't create a level playing field.
I'm glad to see that like your wank-fantasty leader, you are big on projection. In this case, every sin you ascribe to the Iranians applies to the Russians too: - fucking hate us -- yup - want us dead -- from downing civilian airliners to poisoning Brits with novichok, yup - execute homosexuals and uppity women -- not so much executions, as allowing and sometimes committing hate crimes including murder on a huge scale, yup - and are the largest sponsor of terrorism around the world -- Putin has the dripping blood of Syrians, Ukrainians, Chechens and many others on his hands, and of course has more effectively attacked western democracies than any terrrorist group, so yup to this too
As opposed to the UK, the subject of this story, where 3 phase is rarely found in domestic builds, and costs thousands to fit post-build, if you can even persuade the electricity distributors.
Yes, but the context is government policy specifically about new build, in which case this really really isn't an issue at all. And I'm a member of an EV club for Zoe owners, and there are regular questions about home charger installations, but no-one's ever been told to replace their cable and meter.
You literally cited a well documented example of *evolution*. That really wasn't the subject at hand, now, was it? If you can't distinguish between natural selection and humans' well documented challenges in responding to the tragedy of the commons, then you're right, there is no hope for this conversation.
Um. They just put in an isolator switch. Sometimes they'll bump the fuse up from 60 to 100A. No new supply cables, no new meter. I know this because they did it in my house.
1. What is the problem you're trying to solve here? Why woul you need to know who is parking where? Recharging of the electricity bill? There are low cost solutions for that (Ubitricity) or you simply recharge via the service charge. The costs of the power are low anyway, so it's not crucial to get the recharging absolutely right. 2. Supply cables will *not* need to be upgraded. Why would they? The max draw is 7kW, which is well within safety limits. Maybe an isolator will need to be fitted at each house, but supply won't be an issue. It's not like everyone will be charging their cars at max draw all at the same time, after all. I charge my car a couple of times a week, if that, and it has a puny range of 90miles. Lots of people like me out there. 3. See 2 4. Vandalise or steal what, exactly? A charge point on a house's outside wall? I've never ever ever heard of that happening. It's no more likely than a drainpipe being vandalised or stolen.

You could infer what compromise I prefer by how I phrased my original comment.
What about security, privacy etc? Whatever the equivalent is of iOS 12's USB Restricted Mode?

I know this is normal in Android land, but I don't understand why people are OK with it.
None of the opt-ins give permission to Apple to do this.

It seems reasonable to assume that they see the damage to American lungs as being an *added* benefit of expanding sales of asbestos.

Perhaps he should have spent more time immersing himself in actually grinding axes, as opposed to the metaphorical screen-based version.

That was Slashdot, not the government. The government said "where appropriate"

You can easily get a 7kW (32A) charger installed -- I have one. They're installed on an isolator switch, before the consumer panel.

Ha! true

Teslas charge fine on a 7kW supply (230V 32A) and that is a completely normal supply in the UK.
The fund is for public charging stations, the mandate is for home charging.
It's almost as if you didn't read that they'd said charge points would be required "where appropriate"
British plugs are large because of their safety features. They're the safest in the world
