My PG&E bill would make you think so.

But that is a PG&E problem (well problem for the consumer and great for their bottom line).

Generation is the majority of the cost across the US: https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/electricity/prices-and-f...

I have a Toyota Highlander 2021 and it is blinding people by design.

I can see it when I drive and it illuminates the inside of the car in front of me. I had to fight the Toyota dealer tooth and nail to get it adjusted down. They claimed it was in spec. At least it is ok now when it is unloaded.

When I load the car to ski/camp or add the bike rack with 4 bikes, the lights go up again. Every car I had in Europe had a little load adjuster for the headlights to take it down. https://gb.e-guide.renault.com/eng/Kadjar/HEADLIGHT-BEAM-ADJ...

Of course I would expect that to be automatic in 2023.

The reason that you're not supposed to use your regular knife to touch fish (or cut potatoes) is that a non stainless steel knife would tarnish.

A fish knife is silver plated and therefore safe to use.

While my grandparents still had knives that weren't stainless steel, mine would be all safe and the rules now seem arbitrary.
