  • I agree. From my personal experience, I smoke daily and each time I've travelled internationally, where I can't bring my legal weed, I always suffer from poor sleep for a good week or so. It's nothing serious but it's noticeable.

  • Reminds me of that Goose meme, 'States rights for what motherfucker?!'

  • I still use, 'like white on rice on a paper plate in a snowstorm' in normal conversation. Love that movie.

  • Does it help knowing NASA uses metric?

  • 150,000 KM is a lot of driving just to break even. For me, that's like 7-8 years worth. Norway is unique as it's small and directly above volcanos. Places like Russia, China, Canada, USA are large countries where energy is more scarce. I'm happy for Norway and I'm certain EV's are the future but people need to understand that they're not a lot better than ICE vehicles today. They're slightly better but can and likely will get better whereas ICE vehicles don't have the same room for improvement.

  • Yeah, exactly. Not a shocker at al.

  • Except, you didn't have to read it. You chose to.

  • The entire life cycle of an EV uses significantly less CO2 than a comparable ICE.

    That's not true unless you drive a lot. An EV will have at created at least double the CO2 than an ICE vehicle has with 0 miles on it. You have to drive something like 30,000KM a year to break even which I don't even come close to.

  • Imagine a world where people don't just live in the US of EU. What about other countries? Rural vs Urban? Of course large cities aren't the issue, it's what do you do when you don't live near charging stations? Driving in town isn't an issue. It's driving anywhere else that's the issue.

  • For me it's the cost and how much CO2 is created making batteries. They are so expensive when compared to ICE vehicles and in order to offset the CO2 footprint from the manufacturing process, you have to drive a lot to break even and I don't drive a lot. Once they address those 2 main issues, I'll get one.

  • You just have to find your way to a DC fast charge station and hang out for a half our while your car charges.

    You make it sound like DC fast chargers are everywhere, when they most certainly are not.

  • I wonder why the height differs so much between sites?

  • That's a lot of words to say, 'yeah, I am spending a lot of personal, unpaid time to defend someone I don't know'.

  • He was 5'10" which at the time was considered 'normal'.
