It's close, but not quite. Getting it to do 'y = ax + by' like vector operations without superfluous reads/writes is tricky.

(Home) batteries are quickly becoming cheap and per-hour electricity rates can be implemented at a reasonable time. With that, the grid owner can influence the grid stability without having to build capacity or generation itself.

Do they require anti-cheat kernel drivers? If not, there's a good chance proton/steam to runs them.

With debian and KDE (both personal preference), but no snap or flatpak, it works wonderfully. Power/sleep-management has become better than a default windows install. All hardware, including the fingerprint sensor, just works.

There are EV's which have drum-brakes. That's only possible because the regenerative braking takes most of the load. Also, there are stories of brake-discs rusting out on EV's. Both point to less (friction)-brake use on an EV compared to an ICE.

If there's a chain of dependencies (libraries depending on other libraries), a single process might end up with different versions of the same library in it's memory. That's not going to work, since the interface/API of the library is typically not versioned.

Yes, I know of friends and coworkers who have had to change career because they couldn't do their old job anymore. This after a year long recovery. They aren't happy about it, they really want to do their old job, if only they could. Then there are a few more who where home sick for 1 or 2 months. They all seem to have recovered.
