Batteries don’t just stop working at the end of the warranty. Thehe answer is that battery life drop is low enough that most EV owners will never need to replace it. If they do it would be around the same time that they’ll be doing major expensive work on an ICE vehicle. Combine with the lower maintenance cost the TCO…

Fixed the first paragraph for you

That’s another myth. ICE engines have a finite life too. Modern it EV batteries last longer than the life of the car. There’s first gen Tesla’s still on the road with hundreds of thousands of miles on them. They may not have the full range they had when brand new, but usually they won’t have lost at most about 20%…

This is an anti EV thing that AEG’s been pushing for years, even Jalopnik’s sister site has an article debunking this https://cleantechnica.com/2021/10/26/about-that-scary-evs-cost-more-to-fuel-study-not/.

But this way he can own the libs by simultaneously attacking EVs and commies.

What’s wrong with being “that guy” at the gas station. So many times I see lines at busy stations all waiting for the pump on the left when the other is wide open because people don’t realize or don’t want to stretch the hose.

I think we’re going to start seeing trailers with batteries eventually for long haul use cases like campers or boats (though that’ll be fun to dip in the water). Not only can they supplement the EV range, but they can be used for powering the camper especially with states like CA banning small engines, a trailer with…

They can’t due to federal law https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2021/02/biden-cannot-fire-usps-louis-dejoy.html

The GOP wanted to base their midterm elections strategy on inflation, gas prices, and “empty store shelves”. The problem is that most people are coming to understand inflation is a mix of the economy restarting, the supply chain issues, corporate greed, and Ukraine. Plus inflation is slowing and improving. Gas prices…

Here’s the thing I realized a while ago that makes everything make sense. Why they think the election was stolen. Why they think if they start a new service to compete with Twitbookgle that it will immediately become more popular and destroy Twitbookgle.

It's not. For a while Hulu had something like the last 5 seasons of Mythbusters. It has since been dropped. However the entire catalog is on Discovery+

Same thing is happening with Washington State Ferries. We had a ton of sailings cancelled over the weekend. Right wingers started decrying the state vaccine mandate when really they’ve had staffing issues for the last several years because no one wants to do those jobs anymore. It’s been a bit worse than usual the…

The funny thing is those are not specific suits designed for managing hornets. They bought them on Amazon.

Most all cellphone providers run a credit check for post paid plans, ie normal service. Doing so requires your SSN

They weren’t random because they weren’t supposed to be used as a unique ID. But because ‘merica! and FREEDOM! we’ll never be able to actually create a secure federal id system, so we just use a workaround insecure system instead. Because of that they started randomizing them in 2011 https://www.ssa.gov/employer/random…

Yeah the specs are almost 1:1 against the Ridgeline. It even looks very similar to the first gen Ridgeline.

He means a proprietary custom card that is individual to each charger network not a credit card. A lot of charge networks you still have to sign up for ahead of time and start the charge either with an app on your phone or a dedicated card in case you don’t have cell service. For example here’s the page for how to…

They are fine. They aren’t corporate employees they are Josephine County Public Health employees as it says in the article. They are receiving a ton of good press about this and the Josephine County Public Health even posted about it on their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/JosephineCountyPublicHealth/. The…
