Loved your answer! Concise, easy to understand! And then at the end you go full ham and use "would of" instead of "would have". Twice! :D

This sounds like one of the biggest comebacks and most stable relationships in the making! Talking about everything, being vulnerable, honest (which sometimes may hurt!), and respectful towards each other are so important.

Did you forget to mention shrimp in the title? Either way, looks great, although as someone not used to tis cuisine, I find the combination of these different kinds of meats quite strange.

Because that's where the seriously big money is. Internet means ads. And besides energy, food, labor, and shelter, transportation is one of the biggest necessities that humanity needs fulfilled to function. So yes. Covering the world in easily accessible high speed internet and inventing a new mode of transportation that cuts out the human factor (saving money again) are some of the biggest markets to make dough in. Also, Tesla's robot is aimed at disrupting the labor economy. Just imagine if tens of millions of people with menial (but too advanced for current "robots") jobs could be replaced by something that costs less than a car.
If you're wondering why big companies do the things they do: it's always money. Yes, Tesla may in fact help in massively reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but it just so happens that it's also profitable AF.

Reply to comment by librarian-faust in [WP] A colony ship with 5000 human passengers in stasis is heavily damaged in a meteor shower. While the onboard computer does not have the raw materials needed for repairs, it calculates that it has a very large amount of organic matter and a genetics lab.

Uh, so to me this is also great stuff. You don't need a lot of world building. The important stuff is all there. Captain is just brains and eyes, in a jar. Ship is nearly completely organic now. It does leave a lot of room for own interpretation and ideas, which I actually like.
So don't sell yourself short, it doesn't always have to be a fully fleshed out setting. We get the gist of what's going on, and the gist has been produced in a well-worded manner. Again, great stuff!
