I suspect there will be a shortage of something else then…
And regardless, you could flip it around and ask, what will we do in x years when the next shortage comes along and we have no fabs? (And that shortage of course could well be an imposed one from an unfriendly nation.)
This reminds me of when a friend became a cop. One day I saw him or I thought I saw him from far away but I couldn’t tell him that I wasn’t sure it was him because I couldn’t recognise him because of my myopia and, since I sometimes drive without my glasses on - what if one day he caught me?
It always baffles me how blasé people are about driving safety. The rules for driving aren't even that hard to follow. Yet people just seem constitutionally unable to do so.
Despite all the bs you’ll read here, Europeans also want bigger cars. For me the proof is that poor people car brands like Dacia no longer sell sedans.
I think the reason you don’t see many big cars is that we are generally so poor that we can’t afford what we would like to buy. At least where I live… Also our streets are old and narrow which makes it impractical.
Yes. The really weird thing is that guys tend to be really offended when you tell them that. Even if they themselves dont fill whatever criteria they have in mind.
Calling out every abrasive comment would take more effort than I'm willing to expend, and would itself be pretty abrasive. So I picked the comment where they called Covid (the event where many people died, had their businesses ruined, etc.) "fun" over the one that mentioned work-life balance.
The person you're replying to asked if it was fun. Consider that my sarcasm was meant to be sort of tongue in cheek and not incredibly serious, which is a very different kind of tone from other comments in this chain.
