In Germany, where water for agriculture gets scarce, some farmers are adopting methods that I consider semi-hydroponic. For example burying a soaker hose below the crops. However, "real" hydroponic systems need to be protected fro

The EU is going to mandate interoperability soon, because it turned out that these companies cannot be trusted with allowing users to do what they want to do.

While demand for EVs is certainly growing and in some areas a total switch may be already possible, there still is an enormous critical demand for ICEVs in the world. There are areas in the world where people drive long distances by car, bu

The initial question was about cost difference between EV and ICEV. I think it is fair to compare the cheapest of both options.

I'd be fine with a bell-and-whistle-free EV as well. I think there are just none on the market, except a couple of Chinese models that you cannot try before you buy from a Western country.
