I am 45 and I was driving for example Czech Republic to Sweden or to Italy (1200 and 1400 km). I never went abroad with an ICE car before as it is too much annoyance with such a crap, I rather always took a plane. With Tesla the driving becomes enjoyable.

Battery EVs already solved everything, primarily the convenience. And with enough mileage it is even matching/cheaper than TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of gas vehicles. I just had to wait some years for the next regular replacement of my car. The problem is if you do not have your own house with your own garage / parking place. Wall Connector (in my garage) I had installed during a weekend - and I am not an electrician. That little installation cost/effort gets paid off by the EV benefits quickly.

I am 100% for the free market rules. So plug your tailpipe to your cabin and start paying Middle East wars from petrolheads' pockets, not my pocket.

"GW/hr" is wrong, first the SI unit for hour is "h", not "hr". Second it is "GWh" as it is "GW*h", not "GW/h". Why people always want to have "/h" everywhere? The more hours you can produce energye to bigger you have capacity, not the opposite.

Another issue is there are tons of Lithium. The real limitation are the existing factories need to be built and also some limitations of nickel and maybe some other metals.

Funny is that some Tesla statistics (google teslamotorsclub.com) show for the battery health it is better to charge faster at home as (1) the battery has higher temperature (which is bad for the battery) for shorter time and (2) any charging rate at home (=11kW) does not matter for the battery (=0.14 C).

Anywhere you can use C you can use also C++ with better runtime performance and shorter development time.

"batteries are 100% recyclable" - not sure about then but primarily "batteries are currently almost not recycled at all". Which will change but how much and how quickly I cannot guess.

1 is default and +1 is for karma. Your post has also that rating 2.

And then there was just one +1 moderation making it 3. Now there are even two +1 moderations so it is 4.

And the moderation is there IMO because everyone has memories of this astounding Another World movie intro from their childhood when we were using just 720K floppy disks and all the games were just some poor 2D moving sprites.

A new bigger collider may open completely new dimensions for us!

I have Starlink RTT to a nearest public host 103.43.212.161:

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 19.282/32.635/49.483/6.990 ms

Ping to Europe is 250ms. While fiber is also available here (on a different island) the fiber has contracted different ISP for its path to Europe which is then about median RTT 380ms with higher packetloss and RTT going even up to 800ms.

The problem is Apple has a market monopoly (or a duopoly with Google but that is also not completely true). It was difficult for them to get the monopoly but without any regulations there will be no competition anymore which is bad for the consumer as Apple then can keep high prices and low quality of their products and still own the market. why monopolies should be regulated search

> If you deployed IPv6 years ago

then you started having problems years ago. I was using sixxs initially and there were always websites failing to load because they used A+AAAA records but their AAAA was unreachable. Plus until recently YouTube was always very slow (512kbit?) over IPv6.

And you can see how poor is BSD kernel as every company makes their own proprietary extensions of the kernel which get lost in a long run. While with Linux kernel they are forced to contribute back and so the kernel got much better.

Yes, it is BSD kernel. And its ptrace debugging capabilities are poor. They just copycat Linux kernel ptrace but they are far from fully implementing it.

> They just don't use your GPL only stuff

They have to use GPLed Linux kernel. Except Apple did not but then they have a ton of problems from it.
