Nah there are always rich oligarchs looking for lawyers, no shortage of clients even in peacetime.

Measure of a man and it's not close.

They spend the whole episode debating the nature of humanity and fundamental rights, and how they must all be defended, even for those who seem like they could be ignored for convenience.

The point was that increasing voltage allows more carrying capacity with a square root of the increase in dissipation as increasing current directly.

Firstly, many of them aren't casual racists, they take it very seriously and train constantly, you need to respect their dedication.

Secondly, yes it broke them.

From their point of view we did it just to hurt and insult them, it was a declaration of total war and that's basically how we ended up here.

The south was so unimaginably racist that Hitler actually looked at Jim crow and thought it went too far and the German people wouldn't tolerate it.

The south was always here, we just never let them take charge before.

That's been suggested, the problem is that that requires additional infrastructure, either digging a pit for the battery to be lowered into via elevator, or raising the car in such a way they still have access to the pack.

Former is more likely but digging pits like at oil changes is not cheap either.

Mostly it's a chicken-egg scenario: nobody will make the facilities until there are cars to use it... And the other way.

If there's literally one place in America we need to throw money at, it's the electrical grid.

We have a decades out of date power infrastructure, Europe especially has us beat.

Just like electrification originally, and later the internet, increasing power delivery will have benefits for everyone that pay off for centuries .

Mostly we need to make the grid far smarter.

Evs should be allowed to load coordinate with the grid, so they switch on at the optimum times for grid stability in exchange for major discounts on power.

A superload like this one should have to request clearance, then the grid compensates by reducing 'cheap ev power' in the area, while also requesting evs configured for v2g to be ready to possibly supply.

The supercharger has a slightly higher cost per kwh to make up for this, but that is the cost of convenience.

Fairly unlikely, we engineer things to fail safe.

Even if so we have ways to calculate the power going in and coming out, and if there's an imbalance kill everything, that's how gfci and arc fault breakers work.

P=i x v

But also

P=i^2 x r

Power goes up with linearly with voltage but to thw square or I.

Same.

We've had a malignant cancer for centuries that suddenly came out of remission.

It's called The South.

I'd go fetch more gasoline.

Please, his trog voters make him look like Alvin Eisenstein.

In America, we define respect of other peoples' beliefs and cultures as apathy.

We politely ignore them, they politely ignore us, so long as nobody crosses a line the arrangement works splendidly.

And you misunderstood entirely.

I'm speaking of respect for each other's uniqueness without embracing it.

You can be or do whatever you want, I respect your right to do so even if I think it's stupid. I just stay mostly quiet about it, maybe light mockery.

I think religious people are basically mentally disabled. But so long as they follow basic rules (don't enforce it on others or your kids strongly), then let the short bus morons believe whatever they want.

Would we be better off with religious eliminated by force? Possibly. But then someone else would have another crazy idea and decide things would be better if nonbelievers of that were eliminated by force, and the circle would begin again.

The coasts are still fairly safe, but I see your point.

I personally sent my family to Europe last year, they're citizens but our child is interracial, and being brown I know exactly what that means wrt the absolute subhuman monsterous filth in the south.

I think we need a proper schism, the only way we got them under control last time was with a civil war, but personally kicking out all the vile southern trash sounds like the best possible outcome for everyone.

We can live in a civilized country, and they can wallow in their own shit raping their sisters, ok obviously that doesn't work out for their women but we can start an underground railroad to funnel them to the real world.

So I'm ... Binational i guess, 1 foot in the us and 1 in northern Europe.

Until recently I preferred the coasts of the US, but it was a close thing, both were nice, the lack of a patronizing state was quite pleasant.

Now clearly the balance shifted to shit and northern Europe knocks the us into a cocked hat.

But when the us is good, it's actually quite good.

You can have a civilization made of many civilizations, that's how our multiculturalism worked (when it worked) and it was incredible.

But like saying all of Europe has no civilization because they don't all share the same uniform culture.

Jesus you need to chill.

The whole point of America is not caring, I shouldn't care about your decisions and you shouldn't care about mine, we call that freedom.

It's the people who care who are the problem.
