Macroeconomically, it's not wasteful because cars find new life in resale. It's definitely wasteful to your pocketbook to get a new car every 5 years.
This is what I've done on my last 2 cars. First was a Leaf that I leased dirt cheap. The second was a used Tesla at more than 1/2 off. I'm looking at a truck now and finding amazing deals on the '23 F150 lightnings. I'd prefer a Rivian and I'm not quite ready to let my Tesla go, but soooooon.
Someday, the deals will be harder to find, but for now take advantage!
You don't have to host only office to use the client. As others noted, it doesn't do anything to combat non open standards, but it does work.
I mean, I don't disagree. I'd rather that too! But you're arguing if it's good policy to do this or not, that's a different argument vs. whether they legally and ethically can.
Debt to an individual dies with that individual unless the other person cosigned or if the debt was tied to collateral. They can sue the estate, but it's a slog to do that and basically no one will. Debt collectors will, however, claim that all of this will happen and threaten away to the point where people either get scared or tired of the harassment and give up and "make payments". IANAL, but I went through this with my Dad when he passed. We were able to have his estate (a 5 figure sum) pass down to me without the medical debt collectors getting any of it.
Those numbers are not even close to accurate unless you think that the revenue of the Disney parks should pay for D+ writers, etc. Don't get me wrong, the writers strike has real value to the writers, but showing cherry picked numbers that aren't pertinent to the issue doesn't help.
I'm pretty sure killing is a worse way to ruin someone's life.
I couldn't get it set up to allow each of my family members to have their own email address on the domain. It was basically the opposite of the "no catch all" feature other hosts seem to have - Outlook custom domain was 100% catch all to 1 account. I very quickly undid my partial setup and am back in Google for now.
I mean it, just like it is defined.

I have been shamed for not providing my pronouns in Slack. I think it's not important for me to do because it's easy to tell my pronouns by our language. If it was ambiguous in any way, I would feel comfortable providing them.
I do not shame or care if others use them regardless of their reason (support, clarity, etc) up until that reason is to passively or actively shame others.
