Blaming remote work, the avacado toast of 2023.

No, you misunderstand. You're thinking of DHCP. The parent poster is talking about CGNAT, where hundreds or thousands of customers of an ISP may share the same public-facing IPv4 address. It's impossible to self-host anything in this scenario, there no way around it and DDNS won't help you.

Oh sheeeit! I used revanced on Android, but I had no idea there was also a Firefox extension for that. Thanks!

Not even, though. Practically all the YouTube "creators" these days have [this part of the video is brought to you by scandanavian interwebz to keep out teh hax0rs] sponsored segments that are [Have you shaved your fuckin' nutsack lately bro? Check out this ball hair trimmer from clipyerjunk dot com] littered throughout [zzzzzzzzzip ... ^reecrootah ] their videos.

That being said, some of them at least put effort into finding and vetting content-relevant sponsors that can actually be helpful. I can kinda just barely tolerate those.

When you unwittingly leave yourself a code timebomb

Agreed. This is well outside the scope of native browser functions. Firefox already has a rich extensions ecosystem. They can just include the extension with the browser by default for all I care, but as a native feature, this makes no sense.

Jesse, we need to cook the books

My car just has an aftermarket head unit with BT. I just map my route on my phone and set it in a cubby.

Reality is often disappointing

Same here. Guess we'll both be alone forever.

Nah. Plan ahead, use your phone's GPS with voice instructions.

There are likely a lot of complexities here.

Battery tech will need to improve greatly and be minimalized. EV batteries are currently massive, heavy, and generally engineered as long, wide, flat modules to be installed beneath the floor so they keep the center of gravity low and the vehicle balanced. That's not really possible in an ICE vehicle with all the frame molding around existing exhaust and drivetrain components, and you most likely can't just have some sort of modular battery and motor unit that you just drop into the engine bay, as that would put a ton (literally) of additional weight on one end and mess with the balance.

The draintrain components may need to be replaced or the motor outputs modulated to prevent the torque from ripping it apart.

Power steering and brakes will need to converted to electric assist. AC and heat would need to converted to electric.

Older cars (early 00's and older) with cable throttles will need to be retrofitted with drive-by-wire, or use some sort of adapter module that connects the cable and converts it to digital inputs. Same with brakes.

All of the electronics (lights, wipers, windows, locks, radio, etc.) will need to be rewired since there's no longer an alternator.

Probably will need upgraded suspension and brakes to handle the extra weight.

There's probably a lot more I'm not thinking about or not even aware of. Unfortunately, I don't think it's going to happen outside of rich enthusiast circles, which is terribly sad, because I completely agree with you. Basically everything made after around 2010 is total dogshit.
