prove it.

Yeah, I’m with you on all this and have been saying for years that the biggest problem the world has from a survival standpoint is inability to store power efficiently.

This is right when the Petrol is fossil.

The problem is that this guy is mixing things that are nearly mutually exclusive. He wants “a vehicle I can show up with that will have some street-cred with these high-rollers” that is also a “reliable daily-driver that will accommodate two adults and two car seats along with safe winter driving abilities.”

The flaw in this logic is your belief that the range should continue to grow and grow with each generation of EV. All automakers are capable of increasing range to virtually any level. It’s just that it also increases the cost and weight of the vehicle. There are lots of reasons that a modern EV should buck the trend…

Given that the average commuter in the US travels 16 miles each way, I would say that - rather than pathetic - it is perfectly adapted to most people’s daily need for a car. 32 miles round trip for work with an extra 78 miles to spare to runabout town getting groceries, etc... It’s honestly more than enough for most…

Good service department at the dealer?

Blind spot monitoring tech was basically just the final shrug that we can’t convince the majority of people to adjust their mirrors properly. The SAE published a paper about this 25 years ago, but most people still adjust the (wrong) way they were taught in driving school. That is, straight back so you can see the…

Oh, I have excellent credit. My extenuating financial circumstance is probably more about wanting to retire one day so putting a significant money towards that. So, yes, if I were less responsible I could probably afford a leaf...

Well, maybe everyone has a different definition of “afford.” Some difference in currency is also at play as I’m in Canada. But running down the numbers, I make about $90k/year. This is about $2k bi-weekly after taxes and putting money away for retirement. So let’s say $4k/month. Housing costs eat up about a third of…

How’d a $15/hour kid afford a Leaf? I make like three times that and still couldn’t do that.

Isn’t everything visible from space now?

Not only do I not understand why people are pissed off at notches, I don’t even understand why this whole edge-to-edge thing matters at all. Who cares if there’s a 5mm bezel around the edge of a phone?

Dumb article. I’m all for pointing our Trump’s assholery, but this one is a stretch and a half. The very fact that he was apparently using the plural “Senators” should make it clear that he isn’t talking about McCain. Likewise when he says “They’ve.” Unless he has suddenly adopted the use of the gender-neutral…

In marketing and analytics there are many segmentations of society you can examine, and gender-based differences do in fact exist when it comes to perceptions, needs, and opinions. Do they apply to all members of that gender? Nope, of course not. However, there are broad characteristics that do ring true in a large…

Have you considered that perhaps the needs of a presidential transport plane are somewhat different from a commercial airline?

Could be worse, could be an Ucking Calgarian

The good answer is that it looks, cooks, and tastes like meat. It’s a product developed not so much to appeal to vegetarians (although it, of course, will) but to get flexitarians and other meat-eating folks to try replacing some of their meat with plant-based proteins. Many times “vegetarian” products are designed to…

Good thing those carabiners in her ears didn’t get caught on anything on the way out... not the mention the choke chain...

Pretty sure we all have blind spots. If we want to create a culture where people are safe to admit when they don’t know something or made a mistake we probably shouldn’t ridicule people just for doing so.
