What's being talked about is the cost of a "custom" domain. Not the M365 services themselves. Those are constant meaning that they don't change because of this new policy.

A domain plus DNS hosting is peanuts, and Microsoft doesn't sell them. Encouraging tenants to brand their usage with a real domain instead of using @tenantname.onmicrosoft.com is probably mostly about getting people to stop using addresses that have "microsoft" in them except for testing and initial setup. Those are intended as placeholders, not production addresses.

Put your route in while you have Internet. It'll continue providing directions, including to charging stations if required, without Internet. Many areas I drive regularly don't have Internet. Works fine. Alternatively, this is the one case where you might actually have to plan recharging yourself. Unlike with ICEVs, where you always have to do it yourself.

But, yes, if you regularly drive 500 miles, without stopping, through an Internet desert, uphill both ways, then an EV probably isn't for you.

The first stage of the revolution is to keep a cordial relationship with the Mensheviks. We're all on the same team. We're hear to overthrow that rotting edifice of the old order and create a stronger, better society, with a government truly representative of the people. We're all a big tent, and can accommodate differences of opinion.

The second stage of the revolution requires the sidelining of the Mensheviks. Yes, they have their objections, but those objections are mainly spurious, perhaps a little too influenced by moderate opinions. It's understandable, revolutions have casualties, and not everyone has the stomach for the hard fight. Objections will be duly noted and recorded.

The third stage of the revolution requires the expulsion of the Mensheviks. They've become too influenced by counterrevolutionary ideas. The middle ground they try to occupy is the path back to the old order. The revolution cannot afford these divisions, the people must see unity lest they question the revolution. Show the counterrevolutionaries the door, we no longer recognize their standing.

The fourth stage requires the destruction of the Mensheviks. It is not enough that they have been rendered impotent, they are traitors to the revolution, and like the moderates, in the hands of the old order. Some, maybe, can be rehabilitated, others must face more severe punishments. We owe to the people to destroy those who would undo our accomplishments.

The fifth stage has no memory of the Mensheviks at all.

I think you need to provide your operating definitions for "socialism" and "communism".

The GOP made Dubya disappear pretty quickly. I don't think he was in attendance at the RNC after his 2nd term ended nor was he mentioned.
They'll rely on the terrible short-term memory of the voters & will try to make all of this seem like ancient history.
Will it work? I really don't know.

What you "like" or don't like doesn't matter or even what you call yourself, only how you VOTE.
There's not much difference between the person who enthusiastically voted for Trump or who scorned his lies, hypocrisy, cruelty, etc but held his nose & voted for him anyway - both of them contributed equally to handing the reins of power back to him

Rather ironic that the real Communists are the Republicans.

Nah, both are concerns. Neither is actually a large problem in most cases, but both are actual concerns. If you don't have a good way to get a charging cable out to where you park your car, the home charging concern is actually the bigger one. For those with garages, or even driveways, it's not really an issue.

Somewhat, though you don't actually need 240V. 120V is sufficient for most people, as long as there's a fast charger in the area for the occasional top-up when they have a few consecutive days of heavier-than-normal driving. 8 hours plugged into an L1 charger will put ~40 miles into the battery, which is enough to cover 280 miles per week of driving. That's quite a bit more than most people do when not taking a trip. Those who drive more than that on a regular basis need a 240V L2 charger.

So it's more about whether they can get a charging cable out to the car at all, not so much about whether they can specifically get 240V out there. If you're parking on the street you probably can't run an extension cord over the sidewalk, even an ordinary 15A @ 120V cord.

The pinching shouldn't be a significant problem. Garage doors should have a bottom seal that can deal with 3/4" or so of variation in height and still be able to seal well. Just make sure the cable is stout enough (most L2 cables are plenty strong), and if the garage door springs are correctly adjusted it shouldn't have to take too much weight anyway. If counterbalance springs aren't mostly offsetting the weight of the door a typical 1/3 or 1/2 HP garage door opener won't be able to lift it anyway.

Plenty of us wanted Biden to honor his pledge to be a 1-term / transitional president.
But even if Sleepy Joe was entirely mentally absent his admin ran very well, especially compared to the clusterfucks of both Trump's 1st term and what happened so far in this one.
Some of us also remember when Obama was supposed to have the military rounding up people & surging into cities. That would NEVER happen under with the GOP in charge, right? RIGHT??

if you feel that it's true or if you really want it to be true, you don't need evidence, it would seem

"Though he visited epstein island a number of times. And don't forget Biden"
you appear to have missed - or forgotten - this previous statement:

"You think that's some kind of burn, but fuck Clinton"
Biden? Did he also visit Epstein Island?
Why isn't Bondi having Sleepy Joe arrested?

> Hint - a retired person, a lazy ass person perpetually on his brother's sofa and a kid are all not included.

> Anyway the current labor force in the US is about 170 million, the population is 340 million

340 million includes children and retired, dumbass. Are children to be included in the statistic or not? if you're going to try and use labor participation to back into a number of people who drive cars, would it not make sense to be consistent about NOT including the population that literally can't drive a car in the first place?

Maybe cite some sources; it might help you keep your thoughts straight.

An ICE maybe requires less planning if you can't charge at home, but the driver has to do that planning. With an EV, what planning must be done is done by the car, so it's less effort. Well, the driver does have to get into the habit of using the nav system so the car knows where you're going. For daily driving my car is really good at predicting where I'm going so picking the location is two taps, one to open the destination list, one to pick the top item in the list (or one button then speak the destination aloud). And doing that has additional benefits because the car has real-time traffic data and can route around problems.

For people who can charge easily at home, an EV requires far less planning than an ICE. You plug in when you get home, you unplug when you leave. No thought required. The battery is just always full, you never think about refilling. It's still a good idea to use the nav system for optimal routing... and so you can completely ignore the charge state, letting the car manage it entirely.
