  This is exactly the thing I can seem to get anyone to agree with me on … Imported goods will never become significantly more expensive than American for the reason you just said…

  There’s a lot of money in figuring out the right margin below the imported product such that they’ll lose some sales but ultimately profit more because of the increased profit margins. Not that you were seriously saying it would be a dollar cheaper but most I talk with tend to think that difference is much bigger than I expect which tends toward single digit percentage differences

  Nah, just low effort… that paragraph he wrote is anything but…

  Yeah, it compresses better too though, and jpeg XL can be configured to compress lossless, which I imagine would also work here

  Full disclosure, I didn’t watch the video yet, but it’s likely a difference of environmental impact.

  He’s described in previous videos how burning gas at home is less efficient from the standpoint of a carbon footprint. I imagine this video is to help explain everything in a way that helps you come to that conclusion yourself. Teach a man to fish instead of just giving a fish and what not. So you can apply the knowledge to other things in your life

  I doubt a central system would ever be viable, but they would certainly communicate to other nearby cars with more than just blinky lights

  Until they call me because the setting they need isn’t in settings…
