I know this may seem amazing to people who don’t like cars but all the manufacturers buy each others cars for study and comparison. Hell the chinese steal most of their styling from other cars.

Need that anakin meme.
And it’s got the cheapest electricity right. …. The cheapest right?
They literally did detain travelers who have funny meme images of the VP on their phones.
they detained him for his drug use

Doesn’t appear to be a problem for EV sales. Is your closest gas station 2 miles away?

No but it only takes 3 minutes to dump 45 litres of fuel into my car and that lasts about 3 weeks of driving.

10G is awesome for (1) downloading steam games - many are +50GB these days, (2) downloading Ollama models, (3) downloading ISOs, (4) downloading app/OS updates and (5) I have a NAS also on the 10G network for media backups.
I have symmetric 3Gbps fibre to the home via Bell Canada and it reports 4.5Gbps via fast.com.
I’ve got Virgin cable and can pull 6Gb a minute from fast.com. Your hypothetical 50Gb steam game would take a whole 9 minutes assuming steam can saturate my connection. So that’s like enough time to hit start download , make a brew and come back to the pc.
Why bother.
How many flights were people allowed on back then and how much carbon tax did they pay?

The Concorde manufacturing was cancelled in the 1970s. The crash was in 2000. The last flight was in 2003.
They didn't stop flying due to a crash. It was the money.
That and airbus didn’t want to keep supporting Concorde. And they held the type certificate
People don’t want to ly for content, that’s as old as the hills.
I don’t do sport, and I wouldn’t fund such a terrible exploitative industry (televised sports is all about getting people hooked on gambling), but I’ve certainly spent that much for entertainment I do like in the past - and far more. A night at the theatre will cost a lot more than subscribing to all the sports channels. A weekly cinema visit too.
good that you ignore the actual point of the comment that you replied to
>That won't actually allow you to watch all of the matches that are played, because for weird historical reasons there's a TV blackout on matches played on Saturday afternoon - even if you've paid for your subscriptions, you'll only be able to watch about half of all league matches on TV.
