You're part of the problem :)

Here, as an avid Linux lover who knows how to shut up about it let me explain to you what went wrong here.

Nobody asked.

You remember how we used to make fun of vegans because they would insert it into every possible conversation as if it were some sort of badge of honor they needed to flex? Yeah. That's what Linux users are becoming. Tech vegans.

This platform is wonderful but the people on it circle jerk politics and aren't open to discussion. The community has dramatically shifted left. We're very far from the center now.

Came for the platform, considering leaving for the people.

The point of web diversity is to allow people to use what browser they want. If you like Firefox use it, if someone else wants to use Brave, let them.

Brave is not a bad browser, turn on what you want, turn off what you don't. The idea that there must be a right and wrong is stupid.

To write off an entire browser because of one person at the company doesn't really make sense.

To write it off because "it's chromium" is also a problem because they don't support chrome decisions and are not applying their trash to it.

To write it off because crypto is attached is ignorant because you're welcome to just turn those features off.

Well, we've recently explored the legalization of weed due to the fact that you can just grow it and it's not that harmful. Other drugs I mean that's quite a conversation to have but maybe one worth having.

Bombs don't have a great use in the normal everyday market, but fireworks are used for agriculture and dynamite is used for construction. So they aren't really illegal, just regulated.

We do have access to poisonous gasses again for agriculture and some for home use for bug extermination again this leans towards regulated not outright illegal.

Outlawing stuff just because we're scared of it doesn't make sense. Instead providing people with an education on what their scared of can protect them from someone who wants to use those things against them.

You could break down my garage door with a car or run me down in the street with one but we're not outlawing vehicles. You know how to operate a vehicle and can see it's practical uses you're not scared of them. You don't need to be afraid of them even though you're much more statisticly likely to die due to a car then a gun.

So I can pay for others healthcare in my taxes and pay for additional healthcare for myself because the "free" healthcare I'm already paying for doesn't do enough for me? Wouldn't it just make more since to pay for private "premium" healthcare off the rip?

Nothing is actually free. It all comes out somewhere. I'm a big fan of not relying on others and the government to support me.

Though yes, California does have the least non-renewable power generation. Can you say the same for other states?

Additional maintenance is negligible when compared to the price of battery replacement.

I don't think there are many people making trips in their vehicle just for gas. With a gas station on nearly every corner you're able to easily stop on an existing trip to refuel.

When the power grid fails due to a natural disaster gas power is all you've got. With the limited range you have, is it worth the risk to try to drive somewhere for power?

I'm not against hybrids provided you can still get a reasonable amount of mileage off the gas. But like you said, we need massive amounts of improvement on batteries before we're ready for mass adoption and for EVs to really be a viable replacement option.

Counter counter point: You can make a gun easily. Look up the looty.

Making guns illegal only keeps them out of the hands of people willing to follow the law. People who want to kill people with guns and commit crime do not care that they are not allowed to have a gun.
