But why are they all touching themselves?

Is this the onion? Really? Bisex? That's a name I never thought I'd see on a product from a international company.

A warning and belittlement. "Talk to your client". The godfather wasn't addressed.

Five years ago I was astonished that the U.S. navy was looking for renewable fuels thinking it would never pan out. Today I see alternatives which has nothing to do with fossils in the private sector. I see heavy transportation companies trying to find ways to electrify their fleet. I think those "grownups" will find themselves in a new reality despite them not wanting to.

And unfeasible? Three years ago maybe. Today we need to revise the time plans. I'm already working at implementing the goals set for 2030 and have started shifting focus towards the big elephant and the 2045 goals.

"Allows them freedom"? From my viewpoint, that is straight up newspeak. Which is also a point to be made, our respective frames of reference is so diverse I'm hard pressed to think we would ever use the same language to describe any form of housing. Only in America is walkability a problem in low density areas. Presuming your definition of "low density" isnt rural, of course. And if we are rural, I have a hard time seeing how that can be defined as a sedentary lifestyle. Going for a walk is not usually a problem in those settings, either.

What? Won't creditors accept real estate as security from a man found guilty of fraudulently overvalue his real estate in orde to use as security for the exact purpose of lending more money in a money lending scheme? Shocking!

I wonder, though: if the state of NY expropriate real estate to sell to highest bidder and those auctions fail to meet market value, won't that create chain reactions? A) the creditor(s) which had that particular building as security will see the value of their asset turn to zero because of negligence from their customer "billionaire", which should open for a case against Trump for both immediate repayment of the loan and subsequent damages, and B) send a clear signal to all other creditors that they need to secure their assets asap?

In theory I agree, in practice other stuff, as the need for heating/cooling, really muddled the theory and puts the sweet spot speed way up. And if we turn the Aircon off, 150 is a really high number.

So, in a word... And I say this as a European non-english speaker, so I may have got meaning and culture all wrong... It would be unpatriotic?

I'm not entirely sure how to phrase this, but... Today there are choices...

Well, frankly, Northern Maine isn't very much north and not enough inland to get the extremes?

Most of Scandinavia has been below -15F for a good part of the new year and being relatively dense (for Scandinavia) in EV coverage I'd say Norway is the best example of EV very cold weather performance.

We've had this same "debate" here as well with ice-owners lamenting the perceived loss of range and EV-owners responding "I know, don't care. Always works, always warm and always topped up".
