Van Halen made some great records, but that first one was never really surpassed in many ways

Reply to comment by CarminSanDiego in Eli5 why aren't gas only vehicles far more fuel efficient than before by Live_Strongerrr
I‘m not sure I agree you on “nobody asked for more power”. A lot of people don’t want a sluggish car when they are trying to merge. People “ask” via their buying patterns. They’ll look to a V6 if the 4 banger is too puny. They‘ll look to a competitor.

Branch outside American-language films and look at how things like Italian Neorealism and various New Wave cinema changed movie making.

Reply to eli5: Why do seemingly all battery powered electronics need at least 2 batteries? by OneGuyJeff
This is really only a thing with devices that take low voltage consumer batters (AA, AAA and the like) for reasons already described. There’s tons of devices with a single battery, sometimes an embedded one and sometimes removable. My camera, for instance, takes a proprietary battery and has its own charger. My phone and laptop have an integrated battery. I have a lot of devices that take a single small button cell batteries that are used in watches. I have tools from an electric screwdriver to a leaf blower that all take single proprietary batteries.
