Not really accurate, University Students are subsidised, here in Thailand fuel is subsidised, I take it you don't run a motorised vehice? Electricity is subsidised, the arts & museums are subsidised. I assume you don't use electricity in your home? Let's look at the dictionary definition. Subsidy, a direct or indirect payment, economic concession, or privilege granted by a government to private firms, households, or other governmental units in order to promote a public objective. Identification of a subsidy is often complicated because of the variety of subsidy instruments, the multiplicity of the objectives they are designed to serve, and the complexity of their effects. Subsidies to transportation, housing, agriculture, mining, and other industries have been instituted on the grounds that preservation or expansion of these industries, even at a cost to the general public, is in the public interest. Subsidies to the arts, sciences, humanities, and religion have also been instituted in many nations because of the inability of the private economy to support these functions at a level consistent with public policy. I love subsidies!

Could there be a hint of jealousy here? Missing out on our wonderful subsidies are you? It's normal for new tech to be subsidised to get it past early adoption phase, eg the UK are now subsidising heatpumps.

You have to hate those subsidies don't you? Those of us with EV's deplore the subsidies that make our motoring so cheap, enjoyable and immeasurably superior to running an ICE vehicle. I smile every time I charge up with that subsidised electricity, oh sorry, it's not subsidised, my mistake.

My installer can fit this, he says it's 2,700 baht per metre and he needs 2 metres, he's quoted 8,000 baht to complete the job. I think that's a little pricey, I will see how I get on with the car first.

Thai HIV patient admits having one-night stands with many men

As long as you are undetectable for last 3 months, haven't missed any doses of your HAART and haven't caught another STD, it's as close to 100% as you can measure that you can't pass it on. People who are stateless, or Laos, or Myanmar and not entitled to free meds so they ultimately die of AIDS. -

Alcohol does not affect the effectiveness of HAART That article goes on to say if you're drunk you may forget to take your HAART, but consuming alcohol will not affect the effectiveness of HAART. -

Not true, alcohol does not affect the effectiveness of retroviral meds on HIV patients. Alcohol and HIV | aidsmap -
This says more about Ford’s competitiveness against Tesla and China. The reason Tesla and China are so successful is they have locked down their supply chains. If you read a bit more about Ford you will find that supply chains are partly their problem, same at GM. Their entry is very late to market.

Having owned a Porsche 911 4S and more recently here in Thailand a Porsche Taycan Turbo, I can tell you the driving style is almost identical, actually the EV is far easier, far faster and safer to drive. A mandatory track day is not the solution, a speed awareness course is more appropriate & I wouldn’t be against it being impossible to disable ESC & ABS on normal roads, most super car rental companies make it impossible to disable ESC already. I think it far more likely that licenses would follow the British model on motorbikes, a mandatory training course, a smaller one at first before a larger one. I am not sure if that is still current policy. There will never be a policy that discriminates against fast EV and not fast ICE cars, so that argument in this topic is irrelevant.
