He also receives gifts worth literally millions of dollars per year. We're talking super yacht cruises, travelling via private jets, drinking $1000 bottles of wine. And he claims all those gifts don't affect his impartiality in any way, even when he's ruling over cases that directly affect his billionaire "friends".

Or get a normal mouse you can use while charging for 15 mins and then have a month of battery. Or charge for 2hrs while using and have six months of battery.

No they aren't. They have similar wealth to other Caribbean nations, being richer than places like Jamaica and Haiti but poorer than Trinidad or the Dominican Republic. In global terms they rank 83rd, so above average, and they have a relatively high development index, I.e. pretty good health care and education. They might seem poor to you, but they're actually richer than most of world.

EVs are still much cheaper to run than ICEs though. Yes the battery is an expensive replacement but maintenance is still much cheaper because they don't have gearboxes, clutches, turbo chargers, catalytic converters, particulate filters, spark plugs, engine oil, timing belts, head gaskets, cylinders, exhausts, etc. etc.

Mine said she was leaving me because of my obsession with The Monkees. I didn't believe her at first, but then I saw her face.

Imagine if we had national bodies developing drugs to treat health problems rather than private companies developing drugs to make as much money as possible.

Dude you need a to pass a test and have a license for loads of hobbies, people still do them. Even just driving a regular car which is considered a near necessity in some places, we acknowledge that it's dangerous so you need to pass a test and can have your licence taken away if you are a danger to others.
