They were not "Italians" though, they were part of the Venetian republic, which now is part of Italy.
This is like saying Pocahontas was from the US just because she was born where is now the state of Virginia.

I thought Romeo was a teenager too? I mean, the difference in age should be around 3 years they are supposed to be 13 and 16, although the age of Romeo is really never specified, I wouldn't say it's that problematic.
I find Anakin and Padme, or Bella and Edward more problematic, and there's not much outrage for those.
I don't know the first person that thinks banning jets is a silver bullet to solve climate change, or excuse their own behaviour by blaming people flying on jets.
You are getting angry about people that don't exist, or are not even a significant portion.
If you ban any single activity you're not going to stop polluting the planet... Because there's no single contributor, so your options are to do nothing or stop everything all together? None of them are feasible.
I don't even think you have to ban private jets, just tax them very heavily (because they are plain luxury).
Any answer would be hypothetical by definition... Not sure what's your point there.
Being able to kill anyone (who's clearly not a threat) touching your property, without any repercussions, is the most barbaric, feudalist weirdest shit I've ever heard of. This type of shit doesn't belong to a supposedly developed country. It belongs to medieval vikings.
More appropriate in terms of what? Batteries and renewable fuels could serve two applications. And be more practical in certain locations.
The infrastructure can be location based. Doesn't make sense to have EV in certain locations with poor grid coverage, or renewable fuels in big cities.
We have plenty of technologies with double infrastructure, I mean EV and carbon based fuels are both around, no problem whatsoever, even better on because we don't rely on a single infrastructure. Renewable fuels can use a similar infrastructure to natural gas with a few tweaks. We have fiber optic, cable phone, 4/5G, all serve the "same" purpose but for different applications. There's no "winner" there.
Batteries don't deliver power as fast as fuels, so depending on what you need as a consumer you can decide to go for EV (single passenger small car for cities) or renewable fuels for long range, or high powered trucks for freight and heavy load.
There are laws of thermodynamics and there are laws of kinetics.
Fuels have much more power density than batteries. You can't deliver power as fast with a battery compared to a fuel. It doesn't matter if thermodynamically one is more efficient or greener than the other. You would be crazy to suggest moving an airbus with a battery, that's physically impossible.
I'm a researcher in both fields (batteries and hydrogen)
There's no need for a "winner", why are people so fixated that it has to be one or the other?
All the technologies we have are not exclusive, having more options is always better when it comes to energy.
This "winning" debate has to stop. There's no gas vs diesel vs natural gas winner... There is no hydro, wind, PV winner.... They all can coexist just fine.
There is a place for hydrogen fuel, and there's a place for battery vehicles.
Stop debating this like they are football teams.
For the life of me, I tried every single pdf reader on Linux, none gets close to Adobe reader, in terms of compatibility, tools and nice UI. Every time I found the perfect one on Linux, days later I realised my collaborators couldn't see my highlights (or something of the sorts).
I use chatgpt for coding (millennial). You still need to know how to code though, because 50% of the time it doesn't work properly. You need to explain the nature of your variables, and the overall process you want to achieve. But I still save a good amount of time, because now I don't need to remember the specific syntax for a particular function, and it has saved me reading documentation because in can tell how some functions work by context.
Not learning how to code because of ai is like not learning math because there are calculators, sure, you don't need to know the multiplication tables by heart, but you need to know what multiplication is and how it's used to solve real world pringles.
Are they mutually exclusive though? Plenty of love stories are tragedies, just to mention a few: Titanic, Anna Karenina, The Notebook, Love Story...
I would even say, most tragedies are love stories.
