Self-insult for the company overall. But yeah must feel bad for those not responsible. Those responsible probably don’t care, which is exactly the problem.

For a little more than the price of a 4090 you can get double the memory with two 3090s. I’m still struggling to understand which is the better deal but the lower power draw of 3090 is nice as well. And I mean just 3090, not 3090 Ti.

Exactly. And so the crowd shouting "tHe cHiNeSe dIdN't mAkE iT" has been dominating the conversation by disingenuously pretending that the bar to be met is 100% total from-scratch lab synthesis or nothing.

TV satellite signals have been used like this for decades. I sat through a company pitch on this and one of the advantages was it (TV, not Starlink) penetrates buildings and for example underground parking lots way better than GPS signals.

What do you think "gain of function" research is even doing? Starting with natural origin viruses, and tweaking them.

You seem to think a natural origin virus can't be A) examined in a lab, and leaked; B) cultured in a lab, and leaked; C) tweaked in a lab, and leaked. All three of these are possible. And all are compatible with your Occam's razor

As I said we augmented with supercharging as needed. Doesn’t work for everyone though as not everyone lives near a supercharger. And there was one person working from home, and one with a short commute.

I think what was expressed was that there are exceptions (so, not literally always). Like road trips. We don’t need to get hung up on this. There are phrases that apply like “for all practical purposes.” And having an L2 charger beyond a si

Totally! That’s where a 220 plug comes in. But still absolutely no need whatsoever to install a charger. Just plug right in.

You don’t need to. The charge level just keeps climbing each day. It’s not like it resets to zero at midnight or something. So it will get to 300 or 400 (Model S) if you let it. And most people living near a city aren’t 150 miles away… more

More like 10 minutes with a 250kw charger if it’s on your way. Big if, of course. But again you can always charge at home instead if it’s just a nearby city.

It’s hardly like that at all though. 300+ miles of range is plenty to get to a nearby city and back for most people, with or without supercharging. The “very, very minor inconvenience” I referred to is the non-issue of having to find someth

There is absolutely no financial advantage to having an installed charger versus an outlet. There are other advantages. It might fit your hand better during the 2 seconds it takes to plug in. It might be better in the rain if your outlet is

An installed charger is not needed for scheduled charging if the car already does it. Buy an EV with good modern features and you’ll be fine with just an outlet.

In our area the higher price (peak demand time) was during a window about 6 hours long. So we were able to charge a maximum of 18 hours a day while avoiding that window. Now we have 220 which makes things easier, but still no need for a cha

Yes always use higher spec outlets made for heavy duty appliances, such as kitchen outlets. And yes it's a good idea to get your setup checked, and upgraded or repaired if necessary.

You do not need an EV charger to charge your EV. A 110 or 220 outlet with a cord and an adapter will work just fine. Apologies for the US centric terminology but I expect the situation is roughly the same (though numbers vary) elsewhere. We
