How to use remote in a sentence?
Jeff Bezos actually received a letter from somebody in Louisiana in 2016 when floods hit and said,' Amazon Air is the best at getting stuff into the most remote areas of the United States, how can you help us get supplies here ?' disaster Relief was really the vision I had. We can reach even the most rural communities, we have transportation methods to get there.
Another thing the media is ignoring that's the return of race riots in America, in Chicago, in Philadelphia, and all across the fruited plain, there is a racial war going on, remember when we interviewed Colin Flaherty, author of a White Girl Bleed A Lot, where Colin Flaherty documents, from Minneapolis to Portland to Miami to Philadelphia, the violent racial crime that's going on, and most of it black on white, but the media choose to ignore that as well. Now, no one can discount the horrible legacy of slavery. No one can discount the sin of America's past -- but the chances today, and I want to be clear about this, I know it's provocative, but I want to be clear -- the chances today of a gang of KKK members beating up a black kid are remote compared to the opposite. A gang of black on white crime.
We have been unable to adequately staff this remote restaurant with crew and continue to be plagued with excessive call-outs and lack of availability from existing staff, because of these ongoing staffing challenges, there is no probability of reopening in the foreseeable future, so we've made the decision to permanently close the restaurant.

I would agree with Moncef Slaoui. The chances are very low, very remote.
