Gregory's Server@jaredwhite ... and, I would be interested whether you disagree with me - maybe in US it was different from here: People bought Tesla as a shiny expensive new toy that they can present to their peers and all the others. Environmental aspects were just very indirectly involved in that.

 as for the USA (and other) corporates becoming more adversarial, I agree that is happening, but I think its across the board (not just in tech) and is due to economic conditions and declining growth, they were never "friendly" in the first place.... |
@pino @jaredwhite
here in UK EV's are bought by richer, older people in suburbs who previously owned a car with automatic transmission and have space to charge it at home (avoiding the flawed ecosystem of profit driven charging points). Their previous cars are then sold on the used market, and many younger people in busy towns now no longer dirve stick as they can now get affordable cars with auto 'boxes, the media claim this is due to "green" thinking but its also only a secondary factor >>
