Biofuel is not gasoline. Gasoline is a nonrenewable petroleum product. Biofuel is a renewable clean burning ethanol or methanol fuel made from grain or wood byproducts.
There are not enough rare earth metals to replace combustion engine vehicles with electric vehicles, let alone enough to replace the batteries of said vehicles. Electric vehicles are not sustainable.
You're overthinking it. Yes, we have immigrants from just about everywhere, but not every French-sounding city was founded by Francophones. Especially in the 19th century, non-English place names added a hint of poshness, because Americans of the time considered Europe to be the cultural center of the world.
Yes, you're describing classical liberalism. That's not what I was referring to. I was talking about the contemporary definition of liberalism, which "combines ideas of civil liberty and equality with support for social justice and a well-regulated mixed economy" (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_liberalism_in_the_United_States). Related, but clearly not the same.
In this case, I'm using the contemporary definition of liberalism. I call the type of liberalism you're referring to "classical liberalism". It is the political philosophy that created the United States.
No, I have never believed that Russia and China tried leftism. It sounds like you're using a different definition of "liberal". Liberals comprise the majority of voters in the Democratic party and are not in favor of imposing their viewpoints on others. They are referred to with contempt and derision by the the right.
The "anti-hierarchy" faction is defined with the term "progressive" and is probably the group you are calling left wing. Progressives tend to be illiberal and favor the imposition of their social philosophies on others. They are anti-free-speech and support a more powerful, more intrusive government. Many also support alternate economic models, such as communism or socialism.
Keep trying to read my mind, maybe if you guess enough times you'll get it right.
In the Fediverse, my experience has been that any person or idea that is right-of-center on the American political spectrum is speedily labeled a Nazi and harassed into silence.
It's definitely an interesting hypothetical. Some homelabs that I've seen run crazy enterprise gear and are certainly capable of running thousands of very small containers, while others are running repurposed consumer equipment or SBCs like Raspberry Pis with less computing power and RAM.
Of course, in a self-hosted or homelab environment, there would be little utility to running that many network or web services. It would be a neat experiment, though. Seems like the kind of thing that Linus Tech Tips would attempt.
There aren't many benefits from using IPv6 on LAN, as far as I can tell, unless you need more addresses than are available in the private address ranges.
