I’m somewhat hopeful, in the last ten years, new and renovated country roads have been getting dedicated bike lanes behind the guardrails. Miles away from the excellent, completely separate infrastructure the dutch have, but its a start.

Living in the boonies, I’m never going to get a bus going by every ten minutes so a solid market for good EVs is still what I root for.

Eh, ID7 and A6 are getting there. BMW i4 ain’t bad either.

If you just want a local network with DHCP and WPA to do whatever, no uplink is necessary.

Yes. You explain it as if what I have described were an intellectual problem. It is not, so the support you tried is not helpful in my case. But this is public, so, maybe for someone else.

I can’t cook. That doesn’t mean that I am not able to when given time and resources and a receipe, that means that the amount of things I can fight through in a day is limited and I need to use that budget wisely, earning money, caring for my dog and seeing to it that my house and garden don’t fall apart.

That means, I can’t cook, even when it looks like I’m just sitting there, staring into the blue. “You just have to…”, no, you just have to, and the what you have to is “shut up” and “stop using yourself as a reference for everything”.
