It IS a breach of privacy.

Few people who use these apps expect to be surveiled. That may make them ignorant, but that doesn't change that this is a breach of their privacy.

We did not have this problem 20ish years ago, aligned headlights can be bright and not aimed at your eyes. I'd be nice to have this also but could we just get some enforcement on the alignment.

Brightness is obviously an issue ... Id be happy with them pointed at the fucking road, there is nothing at other drivers eye level you need to see

That is rad. My father started with solar domestic hot water heating, then got some PV solar, never bothered with batteries (it was at a time when batteries kind of sucked). Did ok for our northern latitudes. Power company didn't encourage it though which makes it feel like a bit of an uphill battle. I'm thinking of doing my own house but again, it seems like you've got to be the expert if you want to make it work, and power companies aren't happy to have your contributions.

I guess I just get a bit - understanding when people say they are scared of nuclear. I do realize that in aggregate fossile has been way worse than nuclear.

Must solve all problems at the same time for entire country, can't possibly wind things down while building up alternatives. Only good solution is nuclear, ignore all previous nuclear issues, they were one offs that only happened because people were stupid. We now smart humans will never have stupid or corrupt people.

Really I don't even dislike nuclear, some people treat it as the only option when there are clearly alternatives, and solar and batteries appears to be one.
