Yeah just like how Paul Revere made up the story about the Boston massacre to sell papers.

Now that’s a take

It’s not really a problem unless you don’t have the ability to drive the EV. Most people aren’t driving long distances so just heat the battery and lose efficiency. People use more energy just heating the interior for themselves than the battery

I don’t see how history is a take. I literally wrote papers in college about this.

Bullshit. You can easily get a battery for less than $25,000. The Tesla model 3 is a 50KWh pack and is $14000 to replace and likely costs way less to make.

If you were really skilled you could buy 50KWh worth of cells for less than $10000.

The reason the batteries are more is because you have SUVs and Trucks that need twice the amount of cells for about the same range because they’re not aerodynamic

BC has stupid cheap electricity, it’s a perfect candidate for EVs just like Norway.

They don’t want to change way before 32, they heat the packs to fast charge. But 15 degrees is really uncommon as a consistent temperature in most populated areas and that’s also why you insulate the pack to keep them from getting excessively cold.

I personally think LiFePo cells are currently the most proven opinion. Only downside is density but 300mi is fine idk why more is needed.

The goal wasn’t to make the British go away, the goal was to have representation and more than half of the people in the colonies weren’t even for the revolution. This is why they dressed up as natives for the Boston tea party so they could blame that shit on the natives.

The support of independence wasn’t much till Paul Revere demonized the Boston massacre into being much more villainous than it was.

The colonies kinda got what they want in revolution with the articles of confederation but with the rise of the federalists the US was created as a V2 of the British empire.

Like Canada who doesn’t sell many EVs?

They don’t like charging in the cold but they’ll dissipate just fine

How is Norway bad for EVs then

I agree with you here but I wouldn’t want to pay for a host for some FOSS project and I wouldn’t host that on my own IP either.

Decades is far from infinite

You don’t have to replace the battery every 10 years. LiFePo cells can do more than 3000 cycles before going below 85% rated capacity. CATL has been making these cheaply for years.

Toyota has been actively sabotaging EV transitions for decades. Of course they’re against the thing they don’t want.

How are most countries more suitable for EVs than Norway? Norway’s hydro power and smaller size is pretty great for EVs.

Idk about infinite, if they stop getting updates they will eventually get phased out and if you can’t download the application it’s also dead. All that aside the sun is going to go super nova eventually.

Also a lot of people don’t want to self host. I doubt you self host your own Lemmy instance for instance.

Hydrogen was as good as dead for years because compressing it is so wasteful

I thought thunderbolt was DP passthrough as well

“so you just run android?”

If coffee is a tea then I’m going to demand the pasta tea not be poured down the drain
