It's not about arguing but stating a fact. Power companies have roadmaps for electrification and removal of fossil fuels. EV adoption isn't something they're not preparing for. It's very easy to search this out.

Actually I have and I'm also aware that electric companies including in Canada have roadmaps out until 2050 to accommodate not just EVs, but the transition to heat pumps, renewables and all the rest.
Interesting to see if that makes it to production. To me it seems as dumb as someone buying an MP3 player that has a fake turntable, record and needle you need to set down for the music to play.
Nor should it be hard to understand that power companies are not stupid and already have a roadmap for renewables (solar, hydro, wind etc.), energy storage, EV charging facilities and other 21st century concerns. They are not blindsided by this change and are looking forward to it.
Spent all my life driving manual cars and I am completely comfortable and at ease with their pending demise due to hybrids and full BEVs. I wouldn't be surprised if some EVs get phony gears and broom broom noises for people who can't cope with just having to set a direction and push a pedal to make things happen.
The US has protectionist rules about EV grants - car must be assembled in the US to receive tax credits. It's why Teslas sold in the US are assembled in the US whereas Teslas sold in Canada are made in China. There are some comments that the Chinese manufactured cars are actually better quality. It probably also explains why Chinese brands like BYD are focussing more on other markets like Europe.
And over 90% if you count PHEVs too. Norway demonstrates electric vehicles are completely viable.
Yes and the electric company is handsomely rewarded for providing that service.
Not sure what the thumbs down is about. It's right there in their own FAQ.
In fact it ends by saying - "Wine is not just an emulator" is more accurate.
I doubt many people are ever going to do what I suggested so the effort / payoff for malware writers makes it very unlikely they'd bother. They'll just assume 99.999% of people running the binary are doing so on Windows and code accordingly. Of course anything is theoretically possible.
Read their own FAQ. It's not an emulator in the classic sense of emulating the OS. It is however emulating the API of Windows. I quoted the pertinent line of the FAQ elsewhere and made my point clearer
Article seems to confuse cause and effect. Maybe some subscribers left but they more likely because the service is too expensive or didn't like the content. It doesn't necessarily follow they all left because some freeloaders lost their access to another person's account.
