"You paraphrased, nowhere did they say it that way"

Who cares. Cry about something substantive.

Or are you arguing

You'd have to read it. The funny thing, you can't comprehend it when I paraphrase, but you also can't tell the difference between your own hyperbole and what I actually said. "Did you say up is down?" Do you really think I'm going to spoon feed you?

Start with thinking, with understanding. If you didn't get there... why are you arguing?

They're a business, of course they can end their relationship with somebody. You want the government to tell me who I must do business with? That's fucking stupid.

What would be more useful is for you idiots to fight for something like Postal Banking to compete with them, because then you'd have a place to go for the services that does have to treat you in a consistent way.

Lots of people get banned on paypal every day, and we don't know anything about why it happened.

You say that like we should just accept it because, "that's just the way they are."

No, you should fucking wait until you know what happened to decide if they did something wrong.

All the cases I've ever heard of with paypal bans have been either mistakes that they didn't correct in a timely manner, or typical stuff that banks close accounts for. Their history is not of spiteful and irrelevant attacks on people due to their politics. This is just idiots bleeting because they forgot that The Man isn't all the same person.

Just because he did a thing doesn't mean he gets a Get Out Of All Trouble card.

There is no reason to believe his paypal ban has anything at all to do with Tor. Just because he did a thing, doesn't mean he gets special treatment. Lots of people get banned on paypal every day, and we don't know anything about why it happened.

For a commercial truck it isn't a big deal, the cable that you plug into the vehicle can be high voltage, and you can step it down right at the battery.

It doesn't have to be safe for idiots to handle, the rules are different for business users and employees. You don't need a professional driver or mechanic, the difference is in the liability and insurance rules. With the general public, you have to protect them from coming into contact with the high voltage, with business users you just need proper warnings, and some limited training about "if you touch the thing while it is turned on, you'll really die, follow the warnings."

For big trucks, you'll probably having something like a lug nut that tightens the connection.

Maybe you should find "spammers anonymous" and learn how to read well enough that you can personally learn from your links, and then communicate with other humans using that knowledge.

Naw, you're too fucking stupid.

You're so stupid you think that when somebody berates you online, they must be angry!

It's 200W, not 120.

But in any case, of course you can do it in a car. It just gets really expensive in extra parts and controllers and big fat connectors that have to be bolted on instead of plugged in. That's really the limitation with an EV; making it so complete idiots can operate the charger. And that means a plug, and fairly lightweight cables.
