I thought, as a visual, it was pretty great. As a performance, he did a good job (when you could hear him.) The audio mixing, however, was atrocious. He was so buried in the mix it was like he was performing from a different state.

...and GM currently sells one electric car in the U.S. that is the definition of “meh,”

*A wild Rivian has appeared!

I still believe it’s simply a race to make the first viable electric truck. Putting battery packs between the frame rails isn’t rocket science. For fleet use, it makes a ton of sense, actually. I personally think the utility of adding electric tool hookups and the “front locking trunk” where the engine used to be will…

Hi. I have my degree in this. Allow me to explain...

Are these basically what powers those Big Black Deltas that people keep seeing?

NAWCAD confirmed they were interested enough in the patents to spend more than a half-million dollars over three years developing experiments and equipment to test Pais’ theories”.

The lever/button/knob you use to select if you are going forward, reverse or staying put. Commonly known as a gear selector, from when cars had gears, it naturally is awkward to refer to in the context of an electric car - which, as you pedantically point out, do not have gears - calling it a gear selector, and…

I had a friend who worked for Ford for a week. He attached brake pedals. He admitted he attached them very badly. "If you are driving a Ford Taurus and the brake pedal fell off, I'm sorry, it was me."

I bet they gave him a stern torquing to.

It’s a motivational tactic.

This has nothing to do with their space program, and everything to do with the free flow of information. Russia’s FSB makes America’s NSA look quaint in comparison. Your civil liberties and right to privacy in Russia have to compete with an intelligence apparatus that shreds privacy like 1989 Mike Tyson.

Robot are programmed by people. They don’t get tired, don’t feel pain, they will not stop until you buy the  undercoating and the special prep.

Important note: Nissan sells a lot of shit in countries that aren’t as robust in the infrastructure department, let’s say. An electric Tsuru might not be a wise choice in a country where they barely even have electricity.

The public school system really needs better funding.

I’m sorry but you are not making sense here. In order to fuel a hydrogen car, you have to use large amounts of electricity to extract the hydrogen. There are two main approaches - cracking hydrogen from natural gas or electrolysis to extract hydrogen from water. So whether you have a BEV or a hydrogen fuel cell,…

From your own link:

Efficiency always matters. If I take 100 wh of electricity and put it into a BEV, I get 90 wh out. If I take 100 wh of electricity, use that to create hydrogen, put it in my fuel cell vehicle, I get about 40 wh out. 90 >> 40.

This is also a way for oil companies to keep selling natural gas while pretending they’re not selling natural gas.

Toyota sees $$.
