The point of advertising is so some oil exec's failson who got a degree in English Lit at Bard for a cool quarter mil can nevertheless be rewarded with capital's ill-gotten gains, not to actually move product.

Doesn't one of the characters say the asteroid should have been seen by their solar system perimeter bases, which strongly indicates an inside job?

I think it's supposed to be more like Pearl Harbor where they knew it was coming and just let it happen so they'd have an excuse to go into full war mode

iirc they basically say at the beginning that the bugs are attacking us because we're taking their planets from them

Gurgeh stared at the space chess. He considered moving the space king over to the space rook, but then he didn't. Instead, he moved it to the right. He nodded. The robot flew over, and said something bitchy. Gurgeh chuckled, then sighed. "Robot," he said, "please fly away." The robot made a light from his head and then he flew away.

Gurgeh stared at the board. He reflected that the best games were the games that were so hard. And that what this game was. Where would he move the space piece next?

"Well, Gurgeh!" harrumphed the space alien. "Perhaps now you see that the game is so hard?" Gurgeh nodded. The game was so hard. That night, he thought about the space board. He glanded a drug that made the game less hard, but even then, it was still so hard. Gurgeh was immortal and rich, but still he didn't want to lose, because it would be better to win. But the game was so hard.

The robot flew over. "Gurgeh!" said the robot. If you don't win, there will be a space murder, and maybe a space rape!" Gurgeh was appalled. "I must win the space game," he said. He sighed.

The next day, the alien bragged: "I will win the space game! I am the best at winning the space game!" Gurgeh sighed. But then Gurgeh saw what he would do: instead of moving the space piece to the left, he would move it forward. The alien was so surprised. "But... but the game is supposed to be so hard!" But Gurgeh was very smart. He moved the piece again, and in a way that was so smart.

"NOOOOO," shouted the space alien. Gurgeh had made the best move. He had made the best space move. The robot congratulated him, and the girl wanted to have sex with him. "Well," thought Gurgeh, "I will have sex with her. I am, after all... THE PLAYER OF GAMES."

1. hydrogen has to be made, usually from fossil sources. We COULD have enormous sea-based nuclear plants making gigawatts of power and cracking seawater but the nuclear board won't return my calls anymore.
2. hydrogen is dangerous is new and novel ways.
3. Litium batteries are better developed and understood by virtue of being in everything, whereas fuel cells are still mostly in fancy space tech or specialist use.

yeah let's dump more heat into the ocean

What happens when you disrupt the food delivery industry and don't really do checks on food licenses?
You get someone operating 3 unlicensed sushi restaurants from their bedroom and making sales over Deliveroo.

why would they prepare fish in their bedroom and not the kitchen???

any form of tax that hits businesses selectively creates incentives for them to not do the thing, so they'd just start forcing people to come to work instead of letting them work from home

tax them all

tax them 5% on people working from home and 7.5% on any worker returning to the office
