Depending on what you're trying to avoid, even 18 year old cars had OnStar gps that could in theory always track you unfortunately

I mean you don't need to buy at every level, and a lot of it is shared, e.g. the smart casual and business casual blazers can be the same one

Each one is a slight upgrade in formality of the previous one, so yes there is a lot of near-overlap

In fairness a lot of people have office jobs with the possibility to be let go if they don't meet dress code

While true, getting a larger percent of the populace to realize that and prioritize it is necessary in order to eat them

Sure, but so do a lot of other things that aren't as costly. If NFTs were the first secure way to authenticate things online we wouldn't have had online banking until very recently

A lot of advanced analytical tools in biotech at least are developed to be compute cluster compatible, and thus work best on unix-like CLI, e.g. Linux (or Mac with a bit of tinkering)

For many of those years it was the only electric pickup truck being advertised. And also, yes people do like the Tesla name. Musk and growing competition has done a ton to tank the reputation lately, but until just a couple years ago Tesla was far and away the best and most advanced electric car, and depending on your criteria the most advanced/best car period. Perception shifts slowly outside of well-informed groups, and the Musk hate is really only affecting well-informed left wing groups right now, so a lot of libertarian Musk fanboys are still fully on the Tesla train

One could make the case that it is a patriotic duty to divert money from fascists that would otherwise go to fascist causes

In addition to what Blisterex said, the open-source hardware ethos is very similar to the Linux open-source software ethos, so it attracts a similar crowd

UK mpg are different than US mpg, it looks like 1 mpg US is ~1.2 mpg UK

I think that's part of the point? The twitchy zoomers aren't on?
