They are more efficient than pure ICE vehicles though in most situations.

At low speed and city driving the regenerative breaking can make a 30mpg motor into a 50-60 mpg motor.

I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.

Sounds like she was punished to me.

I think the per capita measurement of pollution for China is not really an apples to apples comparison to other first world nations as so much of their population lives in poverty.

Yeah, my friend l foldable screen broke after like 3 months.

Now I just have a super bulky regular phone

They where none stop shelling Donbass

Yes, it so happens a civil war was being fought there.

But the majority of the fighting ended with the second Minsk accords. After 2017 on average only about a dozen people died a year from combat actions. So there couldn't have been much shelling going on in 2022.

How does a dozen or two deaths a year warrant an escalation to a hundred thousand deaths a year?

took away the rights of the Russian speaking population many times

Which rights, when did this happen? I'm honestly curious abuot this.

flagrantly violated both minsk accords.

Both sides did that. A lot.

But what does that have to do with Russia's 2022 invasion? Putin himself said that Russia would not get involved in the enforcement of the Minsk accords because it was an internal Ukrainian matter.

Also you are convenently forgetting that Russia has REPEATEDLY offered peace treaties,

Because Russia wants to not only keep the land they've invaded but also dictate the way Ukraine conducts it's diplomatic relations with other nations. Ukraine is fighting for it's sovereignty here. Russia is trying to take that away.

Oppressed how?

Across all sides (Civilian, Military, Ukranian and Russian), an estimated 150-200K people have died and half a million wounded since the start of the invasion in 2022.

What kind of oppression could possibly been having taken place that necessitates such an escalation?

We just had one!

I am convinced the goal was to provoke a strong response from Israel. The reason is they knew the strong response from Israel would be disproportional and would damage relations between Israel and the rest of the ME.

Israel was approaching normalized relations with most of the major Arab nations around it, most importantly SA. Normalized relations with Israel would likely mean significantly less political and economical support coming to Hamas. Without outside resources Hamas is neutered.

So, seeing the real possibility of a large reduction in their economic and political power in the horizon they took desperate action to stop it, knowing full well the outcome.

As a Star Trek fan, I dread it.

Unfortunately Paramount is not turning a profit fast enough. So it's almost inevitable. They've made good progress though.

Q3 losses were at a quarter of a billion a quarter.

Last year Q3 losses were half a billion a quarter.

So the deficit has been halved but that's still a billion a year in losses they have to somehow plug.

Good. Influencers are a plague.
