This has always been the case. Newer, better technologies displace old technologies only when they are economically viable. You will always have some early adopters who have money to burn, but the vast majority of people make decisions with their wallet.

Reply to Rent Burden Across Florida by lemonzestttttttt
Rent is not a "burden". That word implies that it is imposed by some external entity. Rent is the satisfaction of your fundamental need for shelter just like food is satisfaction of your fundamental need of nourishment. Do you consider yourself "burdened" by the fact that your body needs to eat/breathe/excrete?

Hydrogen is a net-zero fuel as long as it is produced via electrolysis using renewable source electricity.
Hopefully fusion will become a viable carbon neutral energy source at which point hydrogen becomes an essential fuel to replace natural gas and other combustion fuels.

Have you seen the damage even small pieces of space debris can do? At those speeds, stuff rips right through steel like it's butter.

Reply to [OC] How Walmart makes money (they just released earnings for the fiscal year ending January 31) by IncomeStatementGuy
Everything is relative. Walmart making $11B is different than the mom & pop shop making $11B. For some context, for every dollar you spend at Walmart the company keeps only 1.8 cents. The rest goes to pay for goods, facilities, staff, taxes, etc. Plus, much of the net profit is retained for future growth, and any dividends paid out are divided among hundreds of millions of investors.
