do tell, what fuckery do you speak of?

Pretty much the entire DSA platform/agenda.

On the other hand, he's so toxic right now, if he were to start any more war bullshit, I think the 9 red senators who vote him out will look like heroes to their own base.

He has to be aware how vulnerable he is to impeachment right now, I almost wish he would try to do something crazy so we can get him out of there for good,

I was really counting on that $5,000.

You two are saying the same thing. Being able to design networks from scratch is how it knew what the bug looked like (in terms of weights). Being on the card is how it knew what to look for.

I get it, you're a selfish prick and there is no such thing in your mind as a government acting for the betterment of everybody.

It should be self evident....at least in the US. The Govt is there...elected BY YOU to SERVE YOU and represent your wishes.

Why the fuck else would you vote for someone?

Worker level Approx. hourly wage

Newer production hire $29 - $32

Worker progressing through pay scale $33 - $39

Experienced, top-tier production worker $40 - $43

Skilled trades (electrician, mechanic, etc.) $45 - $48+

And remember, cost of living in the US. is not ALL like it is in NYC or SF.....

Easily available info shows that New Orleans has over 50 public chargers. They are not hard to find and use.

And why do people keep saying "own" a home? Are renters not allowed to use electricity?

We frequent New Orleans regularly, the only "older city" part with a real lack of off-street parking is the French Quarter and the garden district. Most everywhere else there is suburban. That said, Louisiana does have the lowest number of chargers per-capita of all the states...

Well, they may have more public chargers.

But I"m not sure where in NOLA you are going, but a LOT of the city does not have off street parking....most of it doesn't like around garden district...Irish Channel, anywhere much off St. Charles....sorry I don't think you know NOLA like you think you do.

I've lived here for about 30. years....Newer areas like maybe near the lake have offstreet more...and a bit more once you get into the suburbs, but in NOLA proper, city limits....I'd say most places do not have offstreet...was rare in mid city and bayou st John.

And what are you going to do in that case? Lay down extension cords from your house to the street (if you are lucky enough to actually park in front of your own place?).

And if you rent a house...you are not generally able to get the landlord to let you install new power and wiring to set up chargers....

And what site did you use? Last time I looked and I'll grant it was a bit ago...even the chargers shown, many were marked "private".

he other thing about dense urban environments is you typically don't have that far of a commute

And...not everyone lives (or wants to live) in "dense urban environments".

I certainly don't....

lots of chargers here in NY. my biggest problem is the cost at public chargers roughly 2-3 times that of at home and per mile higher/same than gas.

Thank you....I'd made comments earlier, that unless you lived on the east or west coast extremes, for the most part you are SOL for EV charging across the greater United States.

I guess in some major urban places maybe....or huge mega cites like Houston or NYC Los Angeles.....but aside from that, public charing infrastructure isn't that readily available in the US.

Public chargers, as in not in the apartment building. It's just LA. Electric cars are fairly ideal here.

Where I live I see precious few "Public" chargers....

It has been a little while since I last looked at those websites that show public chargers, but last time I saw very few chargers at all in the New Orleans area and even with ones there, most of those were private that were listed.

US federal minimum wage is at 7-odd dollars unchanged since 1990s, and an average factory worker's net wage is aboht the same as a month's rent - no retiremennt, sick time, holiday or maternity mandated (and typically not available). At will employment, medical insurance tied to it.

Err...you've never heard of the hold the auto workers unions have on the US?

I defy you to show me the workers on the lines in US auto plants that make "minimum wage"....these folks have great bill rates and benefits...in fact, SO good it's what keeps the US auto makers from being competitive and keeping car manufacture IN the US...

The problem is not the means it is the will. Norway made it expensive to own an ICE vehicle and incentivized EV adoption.

Why in the world would I want to vote in a Govt that would force me to do something I"m not really ready, wanting or able to do?

My government is NOT there to tell me what the fuck to do...it is there to represent my interests, keep legal things legal, keep us safe, city serices,etc.....but it is not there to tell me what to buy or how I should form my lifestyle.

The US governments (federal, state and local) are not there to incentive or push any scheme for lifestyle, or force me into one type of transportation or anything in my life.

Growing up in the 70s I remember needing to know if it was an even or odd day

So aside from that blip in history that lated maybe a year....an ICE vehicle owner has not had a problem finding a gas station to quickly fill (5 min tops) in almost 60+ years?

Nobody with an EV does this. Chargers are everywhere. You charge at home or at your destination.

Where do you live in the US where there is this plethora of chargers everywhere?

I mean, if you don't own a home with off street parking, you are dependent upon public chargers....I've never seen a charger at a worksite, and there are not many public ones available around, at least not last time I liked around New Orleans for instance.

And older cities like this....quite often don't have off street parking even for houses people can own....
