Gucci isn’t affordable by many, a $30 skin is. Plus the overwatch skin is digital, you can’t resell it nor does it mean anything in the real world. Not the same.

Eh, you don’t want to monitor something taking a household worth of power? In the RC car world we monitor substantially smaller batteries and even charge them in a specific bag because of the risk. How long until you think it catches fire?

Yet your problem is not nationwide, at least two states are having issues.

Are you suggesting free markets are a bad thing? If people think it’s bad, they can stop using the company. If you can’t convince everybody that it’s bad and they should stop using the company, then doesn’t this mean your thoughts are not t

Ah so it is variable. Ok glad that’s clear. I also only fill my gas vehicle once a week. Sitting at a pump (charging station) for 30 mins a week is still too long. Not every person will be able to have a charger at home (think apartments, c

have you not paid attention to the rolling blackouts in CA? or what happened in TX recently?

> Most will charge at home, work, or other locations that perhaps have a level 2 charger with the push for cheaper, multi tenant housing where you have many households sharing the same parking lot, how does charging at home work? How do

We have plenty of wood, go outside and see for yourself. We currently have very visible issues with the power grid, and as you’ve pointed out you’ve doubled every houses power demand. Let’s look at what happened in TX, when the grid shut do

You forgot that the power station is a centralized point of failure, where as the fuel distribution network is not. This make the power stations a much more valuable target as you can easily disable a country’s transportation infrastructure

Because gasoline was more convenient. Now with clean emission mandates gasoline can’t be used anymore. But that doesn’t mean EVs suddenly got more efficient.

> People imagine BEVs need to be charged every evening at some super high power. The reality is they need to be charged about once a week Wouldn’t you say this is based on usage? Or do EVs run for a week regardless of distance traveled?

EVs don’t work for a lot of situations. What they are good at is around town driving. Maybe this will change in the future but this is the current reality.

Also Hyundai, which is Korean.

Large scale generation of power to support a 100% EV fleet is also an issue. This is why current charging stations are having issues.

As is propane, but we use that currently with no issues.

> With an ICE, you can only fuel up at a gas station, but it is fast (not always though, queues, etc.). No. This is the reason many still aren’t switching to an EV. Gas cans exist, the same does not exist for an EV. You can fuel up a liq

And i state again, setting an example will do nothing, as it hasn’t. Banning MBAs will have more of an effect.

I reverse this question to you, what is the solution? I have none but asking companies to change will do nothing. Forcing them to change is a dictatorship. So you tell me what the solution is?

What happens when they want more? That upper middle class salary won’t be enough anymore and they’ll seek bribes.

Maybe I shouldn’t have used the word easily. It can be spoofed, maybe not easily. And people buy things at more than a store, like online, and phones verify those purchases just the same.

Sure, by todays standards. Let’s see how well your comment ages with at least 3 different companies pursuing consumer space travel.

How much nonsense is this? Is it so hard to think ahead and go to the ATM before the disaster hits? There are various types of disasters you know, some you see coming for weeks. Many people also keep cash on hand. All you’ve shown is you ha

Well this works well until it doesn’t. My elderly father doesn’t carry cash, only card, but yet it would look like he has a large wad of cash in his front pocket. It is in fact a legally concealed handgun however.

In the US, it’s quite possible your bank may not exist tomorrow. This just happened with two banks here. Plus during natural disasters you won’t be able to load up your laptop to transfer money for groceries, or NFC for that matter. These t
