That I don't know... The problem is that electricity IS finite.
Even a long lasting power source (like Solar Power) still has a lot of failure conditions... I chuckle sadly when I hear "forever" from people describing blockchain.

"Forever" is a relative term, some just don't realize it. It can mean for the rest of the individual's life. But definitely not eternity for most things.
Even solar power will someday run out as our main star burns out.
True, when I read "forever" I tend to think of the literal meaning, but most of us use it to just mean a long time.

Funny enough there are many instances where we confuse literal meanings with something else.
It doesn't help that we're speaking internationally here... On internet, some people communicate with a lack understanding of language, (or just use a translator.) Words meaning something in a country have different meaning elsewhere.
Whatever you say, you'll get misunderstood.

Very true, the language barrier adds another level of complexity to understanding. Didn't even think of that.
