People also dont get the differece between average and marginal. Adding consumption doesn't build more wind farms. Adding extra electricity consumption means in short run burning more coal and gas. They are the ones that can be ramped up / ran more hours.

In the long run they might build more nuclear, but that takes a (very) long time. Generally they're building solar and wind pretty fast already, it is hard (costly) to ramp that up.

Adding new sources of electricity consumption just keeps the fossil fuel power stations running for longer. Efficiiency is stuff like electric mass transit to replace as many car trips as possible - and using as much wires as possible instead of batteries. But no all the money will go into facilities and subsidy for battery powered cars.

Farthest i've gone is London to Berlin - but I had a few days in a few other cities on the way . . . so maybe that doesn't count.

More normally 2-3 hours so I can go after work and be back in bed by say 1-2 a.m. Sometimes i'd stay over in a hostel and get the first train back - but same distance really.

yes, I think the main thing is when the nonfree firmware was included (user can opt-out) as a default at install. So out of the box support for most common hardware became way better.

It was always pretty easy to add nonfree repositories, but having to manually sort out wifi firmware after an install was a pain.
