Can't have your bad guy be that relatable. Everyone would just be cheering against the avengers.

Expect a lot of change in Israeli-Western relations in the next 20 years

I wouldn't count on it. Western attention spans are nowhere near long enough for that.

the relationships that landlords and renting creates are inherently unequal and therefore wrong

I don't think I agree with your conclusion here. Some relationships are going to be inherently unequal, and that doesn't necessarily make them wrong. Take the doctor-patient relationship as an example. If I'm in need of life saving medical care, the doctor has far more power in that relationship. For me it's "buy or die" while for him, not treating me has essentially no negative consequences. This relationship isn't "wrong", it's just unequal due to its nature.

With landlords (and with the medical industry), it's not that the relationship is inherently wrong, it's just extremely open to abuse due to that unequal nature. It's the abuse that's wrong, not the relationship itself.

That dude's not even looking at the computer screen. I give even odds that what he's looking at on his phone is boobs.

I think it's more accurate to say that things become fire.

Businesses generating their own power is not anything new. The big auto manufacturers used to do it back in the day, and if you scale down the concept, every windmill (the grain grinding kind) and waterwheel built and operated for profit is the same thing. I'm just happy that Google is seemingly having their own built, instead of getting taxpayers to build it for them.

Has this guy somehow not learned of type A to type C cables?

Does the balance at least accumulate until you do hit the threshold, or is the money just gone?

Depends on the device and the usage. "Smart devices" can encompass a lot of things.

I thought dodging state imposed transaction restrictions was kinda the whole point of cryptocurrencies (other than the pyramid scheme part).
