From what I’ve seen, it appears a very vocal minority of .world users cannot tolerate any criticism or viewpoints opposing capitalism/liberialism or NATO.

I’ve visited Switzerland and was very impressed by their infrastructure, not just their public transit but what they built way up in the mountains. Lots of little things like dams, waterwheels, gondolas, little railways to small towns. Amazing stuff you’d never see in the United States

I’ve been to Korea multiple times and every time I come back I dislike the US a bit more. From what I could see, the quality of everything, from food products to infrastructure to safety to interpersonal interactions with strangers, was better in Korea. Oh did I mention healthcare, dental, and vision? I don’t have insurance there but all are super affordable and very fast.

The US is inferior in nearly every way and I don’t understand why Americans are okay with that. Even our food is largely bad for consumption, like what the hell is wrong with us?

I just got back from Korea and they’ve also installed a ton of EV chargers since my last visit. Two years ago I didn’t see a single one, now they have at least 6 level three chargers in every large commercial parking structure and apartment complexes have 6 to 8 level two chargers in their local lot. I was told their government made the chargers a requirement and no parking lot was grandfathered in.

It was pretty cool, they have more than enough chargers for now, but they’ll need more.

Has he ever publicly stated he didn’t do it? Is he allowed to say that in public? I’d be saying that every time I was in the vicinity of the media, but I’m not very cool.

Why would tariffs tank crypto?

Why would tariffs make crypto tank? Why not the opposite? How’d that person who shorted bitcoin know it would drop? Maybe they didn’t, but it was quite the bet if they didn’t know.

I’ve been using an app that does this already, it’ll give you a route and take into account your vehicle, speed limits, and elevation changes. Apparently if you pay extra it’ll factor in live weather conditions too.

I think it works well, it’s predicted battery percentages at charge stops are pretty close. It’s called a better route planner (ABRP).

Seems like a compromise, Trump doesn’t win, because he’s antithetical to the prize but they’ve given him a tool to use during the regime change.

Her winning seems like a gesture towards Trump. Like “hey, you didn’t win but guess what, an enemy of the regime you’re considering toppeling won. Maybe you could work with that.”

Doesn’t this play into Trump’s threats towards Venezuela’s government? The nobel peace prize committee just handed a lot of legitimacy and publicity to someone opposing the same regime Trump is targeting.

People, please read the article and not these stupid, flame stoking comments.

This is one of those headlines that freaks me out, but ultimatly this meeting probably won’t effect me in any way. This keeps happening. I should just stop monitoring this stuff.

I have waited with my older Leaf, but that’s only because it needs the Chademo plug and there’s usually only one per charging location.

I recently had my first road trip between major cities with my other EV with a CCS port. Twice I pulled up to an EA charger that was full, but there was another charger within range. I found that experience to be frustrating, but I could have looked at the app to see if chargers were available before I got there.

I guess I was frustrated because I paid for an EA plan to save a bit on charging but then ended up paying a premium at Tesla chargers because the EA chargers were full.

In the podcast, Thiel explained that he believes the Antichrist will present itself as an advocate for regulation, pushing to slow technological and scientific progress in the name of safety. He suggested, with a straight face, that the Antichrist could look a lot like 22-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg.

He’s just getting the jump on his opposition. Of course regulations are the work of the antichrist. The one legal thing that could stop whatever shit he’s cooking up is a biblical boogieman. You better think twice if you want to reign in AI or environmental degradation, because that’s anti-jesus.

Does he really think a lecture series will spread that message? Wouldn’t youtube videos be better? Why in-person lectures?

Also why is he threatened by someone like Greta? Greta has no power. More broadly speaking, the left, however you’d like to define it, is unorganized and therefore has no power. Furthermore any serious actions as of late appear to result in capture of the actors. There’s not a damn thing that can be done unless you want to throw yourself away.

This guy doesn’t look like an expert marksman, but I guess looks can be deceiving.

What were you expecting? Two working arms, at least one working eye, and a fair amount of practice is all that’s required. Anyone is capable.

Thanks for posting that link.

I’m in the USA and have four charging apps. I think you can pay via card at some chargers but I’ve never tried, I only pay with the apps. I use the apps because I review my route beforehand and verify the chargers were used recently, as there are a few dead chargers or chargers that aren’t actually accessible 24/7. I also use the apps because the charger screens/buttons are sometimes fried from being in the sun all day, and my phone is the only way to interface. Then there is the problem of ICE vehicles blocking access, but that seems to be a less common problem as time goes on.

The system sounds a bit better than what you’re experiencing, but I don’t really like it. My main complaint is the chargers are all unattended. It’s not like a gas pump where there’s an employee who can at least put an out-of-order sign on it or perhaps get it working again. If it breaks down there’s no one to ask for help and methheads sometimes steal the charging cable. This creates a situation where I’m not 100% certain I can charge at a location until I get there, which I think is the root of my complaint.

Otherwise buy some glass beads and get your ass on etsy

Uh no, I don’t make any stops on my 1800 mile road trip.

Then what is it?
