"But a complex web of requirements, including where vehicles and batteries must be manufactured to qualify, is casting doubt on whether anyone can receive the full $7,500 credit next year."

And this is my problem and why I think this won't really help much, just why does it need requirements! Just give it to everyone! What's the point of making it harder on something you're trying to get popular!

O and let's not forget IT'S A TAX CREDIT! people really don't understand this, it's not a discount! So not only may the vehicle you want not qualify but if it does you won't get the credit for a good while which will definitely cause confusion for some people, o and let's not forget that it's for a product most people buy with a loan...

Yes it will help people but the tax credit in my opinion is a halfass solution and we need something better, EVs are still more expensive then ICE and until that's solved they won't be as popular. I think the government should look into different ways of lowering prices.

Not to mention EVs are too small! You know what would boost their appeal a ton making them bigger since well most Americans don't want small cars(I personally think that's asnine but I'm not the majority) like look at the EVs on market they're just sedans and a few crossovers, where's the big SUVs? not to mention most of the crossovers are on the small side.

Basically my point is a LOT more needs to be do to boost their appeal if they're to be the majority.

Good there's no reason for the deal not to happen!

Like if they won't even be the biggest video game company that means it can't create a monopoly since you really need to the biggest to do that.

Not to mention the tons of other shit the US has let happen but THIS is somehow a issue.

The only real reason I can think this is happening is because Sony paid people off.

How? No seriously how? The imac sure and it's great they're doing it but the studio HOW?

Wuldn't you need to replace the whole thing? Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought it was just a single board pretty much which isn't really easy to repair.

Like do you have to desolder the individual parts and solder them back on? Or is it just a board swap? Since if it is just a board swap pretty pointless might as well just replace the whole thing.

Not to mention again what can do wrong? Water damage? Since again not easy to fix.

This is pretty stupid let's be honest here I know people hate Facebook BUT COME ON! what is this crap? They had nothing to do with the war!

The people running the war and actually responsible for those deaths don't give a shit about what's on Facebook!

Not to mention fueled fucking what? WHO? right idk! These aren't fucking civilians fighting and wasn't started from a civilian group!

"So far this year, six people have died in e-bike-related fires and 93 people were injured, up from four deaths and 79 injuries last year"

That's a lot more then I thought like sure it's highly population city but almost 100 people injured in a small market is a pretty good number and frankly it will only get worst as they get more popular.

 "Chromebooks last pretty much forever. Unlike Windows machines, which have a lifespan of about three years, I still have Chromebooks running that are seven years old. 

True, their Auto Update Expiration (AUE) dates are now history, so I can't get automatic updates anymore. But, so what? Even Google admits you can keep using them after their average five-year expiration date.  

Now, if this were Windows, it would be a different story. Anyone still running Windows 7 is just asking to be hacked unless they got an Extended Security Update (ESU) contract. And, even that is finally ending in January 2023."

Talk about getting paid to shill a shit OS! If anyone is running Windows 7 they can probably upgrade to windows 10....I can't think of many situations where someone can't upgrade due to requirements and frankly if the requirements are the problem then they probably have more to worry about then security!

Also Windows 7 came out in 2009! That's over 10 years old!

Not to mention Windows computers have to run a real OS unlike Chromebooks which have to run ChromeOS which is just a glorified version of a fucking browser...

O ans while I didn't read the whole article since frankly I have read enough to know it's shit and not worth my time, I will talk about the headline ChromeOS isn't a DESKTOP OS! The only devices I know that use ChromeOS are laptops which well aren't a desktop....
