Relays?

I’d still count valves as electronics. No semiconductors there either. Relays too. Basically, once you’ve got an electrical signal controlling another electrical signal.

How did this manifest before? You only need to look at the advertising of the time. Take the 1950s America - McCarthyism and the red scare in full force. Most US marketing relied heavily on how buying American made you a good patriotic citizen, living the American dream… even if the product wasn’t 100% American.

It’s only the timescale I’m unsure about.

Venison probably. Boar is also good.

On poultry, I’d go turkey over duck. Not keen on goose, too fatty.

I’m going to be bold. The internal combustion engine car.

There will be a tipping point where nobody wants to maintain the highly intricate manufacturing for them, and they will stop very quickly. Electric motors are the future and the transition is accelerating. We’re currently around 20% of new sales and I expect after 60-70% ICEs will just disappear from sale.

Not really. Power induction through air is inherently lossy. That’s just physics.

No, we have a vaccine for that.

The plant is called rape. The seed is rapeseed.
