I'm not obsessed with efficency, but it is a useful metric to consider when thinking about the overall picture. Additionally I've not made your point. Solar still requires implementation, land use, and is finite in access to humanity despite the source being infinite. Producing hydrogen fuel with this consideration would automatically increase the required solar capacity by 20-40% based on current hydrogen production processes. In addition there are byproducts and downsides from creating traditional hydrocarbon based fuels in a renewable manner.

Fuck off.

The 12 years you're referring to is a assuming batteries without thermal management via nrel modeling, the ioniq 6 must face HEAFTY import taxes in your country (which is not the fault of the vehicle), and there are alternatives to running on gasoline like recycling the old cell (already a reality) and replacing it with another.

You're confusing the efficency of solar panels with the efficiency of burning hydrocarbon based fuel (perhaps intentionally?). Yes, solar panels convert about 20-30% (they're getting better with time) of the energy provided by mankind's closest and most beloved fission reactor into energy we can use, the rest being reflected or turned into heat, but the source (that giant ball of fission) is infinite and non-detremental to the environment to keep running. Hydrocarbon production not only requires this original source but once calculated would provided you end delivery efficency levels that are dramatically lower (likely less than 1%), Natural hydrocarbons are limited in supply, and the whole chain is significantly more toxic for the planet when you calculate in byproducts produced during production or consumption. It's legitimately not even close and if you truly believe hydrocarbons are even remotely viable you've misinterpreted one of the data points somewhere in your calculation.

In a completely technical sense the hydrocarbon fuel was at one time produced from light energy (dead plants) but that's taking your point and being pedantic since the "efficiency" of the conversation is probably astronomically low when you account for the loses sustained by whatever lifeform died and became said hydrocarbons.

This is just the state of the auto industry at the moment. There's just as many teslas and evs waiting on parts as there are traditional ICE models when adjusted for market scale. The days of having everything in stock at the dealer for a quick swap are dead and gone.

Are you working out all the prices in Australian fun bucks?... Because an ioniq 6 is not $82,000 usd for any of the trim levels and after running comparable TCOs vs fuel it will start paying for itself after the 15 year mark (well within the expected useful lifespan of a modern temperature controlled lithium pack (old EVs had significant degrading from temperature fluctuations, but new packs level off at about 10-20% wear now for an expected lifespan of 25-40 years >80% SOC)). Biggest downside is tax, payments, and higher than usual insurance which I'm not including in the TOC Calc because it's so varied based on location that it's hard to estimate.

Imo backend FOSS needs a complete rethink with an easy way to manage one's own digital stewardship. I've lost a ton of data to FOSS projects (masto, lemmy, etc) just because the random host I chose decided to close up shop. Not particularly the fault of the software vendor per sae, and while I do not wish to hassle with hosting my own entire instance I'd be happy paying for or hosting my own data.

Perhaps an invalid opinion, but a bug report that falls outside of scope because of lack of detail or lack of reproduction is still a valid bug report for metrics and general user experience imo. Could lead to interoperability efforts, user experience recommendations, user education utilities, or a bug getting patched but the end result is always the same: a better experience for the end user.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaats up internet, now I see you're looking for how to do the heimlich maneuver. First I just want to reminder you to like and subscribe, oh and don't forget to ring that bell! Now the heimlich maneuver is critical to perform correctly and within time, just like our sponsor for today's video..." 😂

Huel hot and savory is pretty good if you want most of the convience and nutrition profile, while still getting the "experience" of food.

Anyone else thinking satellite phone connectivity for non-leo constellations won't take off simply because the majority of the user base would never see value in it compared to the cost it would incur them? Like, even safety minded Apple customers weren't showing high enough adoption rates for Apple to roll it without fitting the bill themselves.

FOSS hero. 💜

Ah, that makes sense then. Thanks for explaining.

Yeah, but having experience working in industries affected by this particular boys club plague (tech mostly) you'd be shocked how quickly the biggest degenerates you know can cover up shit and turn face when given warning. Only have to maintain the guise till the investigation is over. :(

Investigators being sent with prior warning seemingly defeats most of the point imo.

Arguably I think it's happened to a few more than that, Warcraft 3 comes to mind in the Battle.net launcher.

This is probably more of a localized situational matter than most of us realize. The US (and the world for that matter) is a big place of extreme diversity.

Unfortunately for your world views, no. I'm 28 and able to engage in empathy for the plight of my fellow man. Sad you've gotten that used to callous realities.
