Well if you say its about Benjamins then there are many issues in addition to the 30% premium needed to buy the average comparable EV. 1 - seven states are charging $200 extra registration costs every year no matter what size vehicle or how much you drive. Cali is working on charging per mile. 2 - electricity rates have been rising while gasoline keeps falling 3 - insurance costs are much higher on EVs because there are less shops that know how to deal with them 4 - the only way an EV is cheaper is to charge at home. The EV stations cost not only more than gasoline but also your time waiting.

The 'killer app' will be a smaller lighter (and safest) solid state battery with a range over 500 miles Thats when adoption will take off to get the people that are hesitant to switch

But it certainly says that Alcohol in small amounts is not bad at all. There is a 109 yr old woman who drinks 3 light beers a day. There was a 112 yr old guy in Texas who drank whiskey every day with breakfast.

And its interesting that over 50% of male centenarians drink alcohol. And some of the oldest female centenarians drink also

No, Americans love their big SUV's and Trucks. Gas prices keep dropping while electricity is going up. So you want us to all be completely at the mercy of thr grid? Until there are two separate Utility lines at every house it will not be reliable like gasoline. And gasoline is perfect its a liquid with massive amounts of energy that takes 4 minutes to fill. I can also go 700+ miles in my Accord Hybrid. So the only suicide is wasting money on a EV that loses value fast and nobody wants.

This is why China is so great. Almost everything they sell has been copied from others this doesnt surprise anyone

Is it not possible to use a drone with an offline tablet or phone?

If your business relys on cheap Chinese non living wage labor junk then you are part of the probem.

The 'poor' are migrating to 1st world countries where they will need a vehicle and home with electricity and heat. The middle class across the globe is still growing

Gas and diesel engines are much more efficient in warmer weather. Less natural gas and oil heating is needed. But all that savings will be taken by population growth and Ai

Poor TDS. Lets move OpenAI, Gemini and all our data centers to Germany and see if renewable can handle it? And they use plenty of fossil fuels from Russia which is not included in the electricity usage

If you dont want fascism you have to stop supporting -both- radical left and radical right candidates. As an independent I saw the radical left took control of Biden and implemented so many extremist policies like millions of unvetted immigrants with no plan on how to house or assimilate them. This makes people then vote for people like Trump who not only says he will stop it but he does it with Obama style deportations although now everyone has iphones so you can watch it all live.

As long as the dollar is the global reserve currency the USA is always getting richer while China gets a bunch of deflated dollars

Who cares what China does? We have an aging grid and power generation thats being taken up by AI processing. Electricity prices are going up while gasoline keeps dropping. At some point it will absolutely be cheaper to own a gas vehicle. And California is about to charge EVs taxes by the mile so that advantage will be gone.

Yep some of us want real buttons and controls and we dont want weekly updates that change how the functions work
