Funny project, funny people, funny ideas. There is some really black and white thinking around feature requests on their forums - for example, segmented ftp downloading for their ftp client.[1]

They are not, nor have ever been interested in solving customer problems. That's ok; that's their privlidge.

Digital IDs are a solution. What are the clear problems statements? How can you show that Digital ID solves them? What problems do they also introduce?

Filling the roads with single person occupancy vehicles is not a replacement for "legacy public transportation".

A 5000lb car to move a <200lb person is a terrible last mile option. There has never been a better time for last mile options than today. On the train I see all sorts of bikes, ebikes, escooters, and skateboards being used.

Electric microtransit is awesome in the right situation: able bodied, acceptable weather, minimal cargo, traveling solo, secure vehicle storage at destination. Waymo vehicles will be an excellent tool in the toolkit for moving people safely, efficiently, and affordably.

That right situation describes the vast majority of peoples trips. Not many disabled people hauling a cord of wood through a blizzard very often. Most peoples trips by far are their single occupant commute to and from work.

Everything that's easy to reach on a bicycle is also easy to reach on a mobility scooter, see Netherlands

Bus gets me from 50m from my house to 50m from my office. How is that not doing the last mile?

That's very fortunate or very strategic of you to choose your home and workplace to work so well with the bus routes. Most people in the US do not have a bus stop within 50 meters of their home and workplace (and certainly not a single bus line that operates frequently at all times needed).

Absolutely. Outside of cities personal car-based makes a lot of sense.

Inside a city is a different matter.

(See this for an example of what a pretty good transport setup can give you: https://www.lothianbuses.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/2509... )

Getting maximum efficient use out of rail, trains, buses, roads, and vehicles is the goal. The fewer empty seats moved, the better.

Where did the raw materials for this 'american' product come from?

Most raw materials can be found in the US.

If those materials weren't already advantageous to obtain domestically, this points to inevitable price increases.

>most teams having real shot at championship.

Um. Yeah. No. In the last 10 seasons, 4 different teams have won titles. One of those have won it 6 times.

Sorry, my English failed me: I meant "most" as in "more teams compared to other leagues", not "almost every Premiership team".

Also, 4 different champions in the last 10 years is the most diverse of all major leagues. Bundesliga has Bayern winning 12 of the last 13 titles, Ligue 1 has PSG winning 10 of the last 12. In Spain the title basically alternates between Real and Barcelona, with Atletico winning 2 titles in the past 20 years.

Here is not a sport debate forum but,

The amount of competition is Higher in Premier League. Teams like brentford or Brighton play top-tier football although they have no chance winning the title.

Arsenal is a complete loser, If Liverpool was instead of them in the title races of 22/23 and 23/24 they would have more chance.

I have a chinese EV (GMW, not BYD). Its incredible value; Can't imagine buying another legacy manfacturer car - they're all being disrupted.

Can't wait to experience a Gigawatt DC re-entering a la Cosmos 482.

This mindset gets the Demister function buried in a touchscreen. I don't want a touchscreen for most driving related functions; buttons or switches thanks.

The (relatively) uninformed US population is 100% an intentional domestic outcome of US geopolitics.
