Why chargers with cables? A solution was needed now, not in 2025 or 2030. And Blockbuster? Better comparison is RJ45. Nobody has "Blockbuster" at home, but they do have an RJ45 connector on their modem. Sure, everybody mostly uses WiFi now, but you can fall back on a cable connector, if the wireless solution has an issue.

The intro wasn't clean (small cut outs, stop-starts), but at least the interview was.

22:00 Nice spewing of FUD there. The rolling blackouts were mostly from the high winds as a fire prevention method. For Joe Average the idea of TCO is a mystery. It is possible to recycle 95% of a battery right now. If you take Tesla as an example and Average Joe's yearly distance, the worst battery pack will be at 75% (replacement) range after ~25 years range. Then those are still home battery grade, so still 30 years of life. The industry has 50 years to prepare for the recycling spike of 2070.
