    So… if the technology isn’t improving your life you continue to use the one that’s making everyone else’s life worse? Even if you have the means to switch to the marginally less damaging one, that’s marginally more annoying? Sounds like serious entitlement to me. The idea that no downgrade is acceptable is niave AF.

      It depends on the cost/benefit analysis. It was part of my decision to buy a Tesla but I am deeply disappointed with the experience. It’s so bad that I want to sell it and buy another ICE. Most people aren’t willing to pay more for a significant downgrade. That’s just reality.

        i guess this a pertinent example of why we’ve got basically zero chance of stopping climate collapse. I’ve no doubt your position is very much the norm. We’re all required to make massive sacrifice to solve this, but very few are willing to make even small concessions)like less convenient driving practices).

        Oh well it’s gunna be exciting to watch the ship sink at the very least.

        At least you acknowledge your shitty position. it’s more than most seem to do.
