Thank you. Very few appreciate the conversion losses of electric as electricity is transmitted over long wires, stepped down by transformers, converted to chemical energy, converted back to electricity, and converted to mechanical energy again. It's not very efficient.

People are stupid. People think think things like "Big wire from power plant 100% of power go to me or people around me". They have no concept that there is loss in the system, that the loss is based on hundreds of factors, etc.

Its like the food thing just in a different industry. "Why do you hunt, killing animals is wrong, you can just buy meat at the store". Yes.. But where the fuck do you think that meat came from? "It came from the store, are you stupid"?

Face, meet brick wall...
