Ah yes, the next solar frickin' roadways. No this isn't implemented on any scale and it's right next to perpetuum mobile's in terms of magical thinking needed.

At that point, why not write latitude and longitude and be done with it?

No, compound words are usually just compound nouns. Exactly the same as in English, except the space is missing.

Yes. The cables are intentionally made "too thin" so that they weigh less and are less stiff. The upside it it makes handling them much easier. The downside is they they get pretty hot pretty fast, and from there you have two options: Actively cool the cable from inside or throttle charging so the cable doesn't melt.

Just crimping a connector to such a cable is hard work. You really can't compare that to traditional wiring. Many are also water-cooled.

and configure them to not make up any of their own

That's the trillion dollar puzzle nobody has been able to solve yet. It's not trivial at all, even when it seems like it should be.

No. Not all "evil" is caused by people, and not all bad things caused by people were done with that intention. There is a very large margin for "less evil", where natural disasters could just not exist and people with good intentions get the information they need to not do something bad accidentally.

2024 was a great start with the release of Plasma 6, and the Pros of Wayland now generally outweighing the Cons.
