What on dear earth does Lyme's disease have to do with anything you mentioned?

I moved to England a week after I finished my last exam. I stayed with my brother for a few months then moved to an apartment above my work. I was making £4.50 an hour and working huge hours. I ate once a day which was rice with a can of soup mixed in. I wasn't living the high life, but it was good times.

Edit: I lived a very tight life for a long time . I've since gone and studied then progressed quite well in my career. I live in the regions now, and rent is around $900 USD a month which is fairly achievable in our area

That's not how it works, especially before they reach a consensus / theory. But anyway.

I moved out when I was 18, so cant give you lived experience. But in my opinion I don't think there's an age you need to move out, but there's definitely an age where I think you need to be equally contributing.
Financially I think it's important to contribute to utility cost. If your dad rents I think it's only fair you pay your fair share there too. If he owns then potentially a smaller monetary value as hell retain the asset. Domestically I think it's important you not only contribute, but also lead some domestic chores.

It's reasonable to expect your dad to do the lion's share when you were growing up, now you're an adult I think it's only fair to lift some of that burden from him.

That's a very simple process, I'm sure people would be more than happy to do that on available vehicles.

I had no idea about the differences with h264 / 265.

Interesting article to skim here for the uninitiated https://www.techspot.com/article/1131-hevc-h256-enconding-playback/

Eh, I wouldn't classify a phone as a luxury good. Id also say a non-cheap EV is more like 50-60 times a phone. But there's definitely a gap in society for those that can buy new cars, let alone new EVs

It's not an apple with apple comparison though. People are willing to pay a higher price for EV when factoring in reduced maintenance costs, charging and ?? environmental benefit.

I disagree, you can't expect everyone to be technologically literate enough to understand the consequences of everything. And you can't palm it off by saying "well they need to/should". Much like expecting people to understand and read every single EULA that everyone always scrolls down and hits "accept" At some point legislation needs to be drafted yo make it very clear the consequences, or legislate to ensure privacy so companies can't do this.
