I'm kinda ok with a combination, like hey during the day run with mostly humans but at night supplement lack of staff when automation (so long as it's safe)

I'm the big picture, maybe. On the other hand, there are plenty of cases where efficiency-per-size may be more important than price-per-efficiency given the available surface area to place a panel.
Not just that but that the "infotainment" system is getting further and further integrated with vehicle controls
A lot of this also comes back to asshole design, and EV's can be particularly bad for this. Switching to large touch "entertainment" displays is a major issue. With my last ICE (Honda) vehicle, it was integrated into the backup+side cameras and a few comfort/convenience features. I could still replace that with a new head unit, though only certain ones would still support the cameras.
My wife's EV (Hyundai) on the other hand, the console isn't really made in a way where it seems swappable, and even if it was there are major system functions - such as configuring charge/power settings - which can only be configured from that (or the dogshyte app that screws up often and requires a paid subscription after 3yr)
I'd also wonder about a case against the company supplying the facial rec software/DB. Essentially they are fingering her as a criminal in a way that has a notable impact, which seems like a potential case for slander/libel to me (not sure what a "bad db entry" would fall under in this case).
a) you'd have to know who does it, and you might not until you (or somebody else) gets caught in the net b) boycotts are more effective if there's choice, which there won't be if mostly everybody starts using this shyte
There are other WinAmp-like apps - including ones that can use old WinAmp skins in classic now etc - such as QMMP or Audacious
A LOT are like that though. They just get you a smaller bill by sending power bank to the grid, rather than making you grid-independent.
In some cases a wipe/reset of the TPM from the BIOS might do it as well, is it's still functional but scrambled
Yes and no. A lot of them are still emplaced in useful locations, and people travelling will still need to stop and charge. A lot of the ones that were located in less profitable locations have already closed.
If anything, the charge times associated with electric might make proximity to nearby store, mall or entertainment venue more profitable.
Just want to add an extra FU to Google as a consumer and Android user. Killing off GPlay Music for YT Music was just a nasty nice, especially given that the latter has no mechanism to purchase music and a lot of the content or mixes in from YouTube uploads seems of pretty dubious legitimacy
Server or desktop, and what types of files? I find that a self-hosted version of NextCloud does pretty well for keeping contacts, images, and videos in sync.
(You could run it on a Pi as an intermediary to both if desired)
I used to use stuff like AndFTP in the past for similar functions
