    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    I’m curious how much of that has to do with it being an EV versus having a poorly designed heater. I’ve seen online that their EV’s heat up very quickly. I’m sure we’ve all been in a friend’s car that had a shitty AC or heater, and we knew that their AC/heater just sucked. The same can be said...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Tbh it also has to be well below zero, not just it being cold. ICE vehicles also have difficulty in subzero temperatures. Also, if you read those articles about what happened in Chicago this past winter, there’s more to the story. The cars died waiting in line at a charging station and the...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Like 350-400 miles depending on how hard the AC is going, though the AC doesn’t do a massive dramatic drop.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    They can, but with the range on their vehicles, they just charge at home. Idk about when they go on trips, but daily commute isn’t a problem for them.

    Should Vaccines be Mandatory?

    I wouldn’t call it good judgement. More like make someone else do it for you so you accept no responsibilities, and bitch about it when it’s not what you want.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    Well, saying East Coast doesn’t narrow it down, because there’s like over 13 states there with widely varying rates for electricity. We’re out in Texas, which is kind of mid for electricity rates. They said their electricity bill only went up like $50 something a month. Most people here spend...

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    That guy must be driving really far, or he lives in a place with a high electricity bill. My coworkers who have EV’s have the complete opposite story.

    Wrong side driving

    I lived in the UK for a few years, and you get used to it after awhile. It helps when the steering wheel is also on the wrong side.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    I wish the EV situation wasn’t politically charged. That way there’d be less misinformation leading to what your guy is saying.

    Are hobbies a waste?

    It’s only a waste if you’re either not enjoying it, or you’re struggling in your life because of your hobby.

    When do you believe the number of electric vehicles will surpass that of combustion vehicles?

    We need more charging infrastructure. Just like how we have gas stations in small towns in the middle of nowhere, we’ll have charging stations.

    Should Vaccines be Mandatory?

    That involves people using their brains. Too much work.

    Do you think anyone can be a good teacher?

    No. some people have the technical knowledge over a subject, but couldn’t teach people out of a paper bag. Sometimes it’s hard to teach the how and why of certain things.

    Have you ever been sued?

    I’ve been “threatened” by users because I called them a moron. We know how serious internet lawsuits are.

    18+ warnings

    Something to note, is that parental controls exist for kids for their web browsing. I don’t get why someone else has to implement stricter controls when the parents are the ones who have the access to implement it on their kids.

    Screen Time: Yes or No?

    Stopping people under two doesn’t address the problem when they get handed a device after two.

    Did you ever tried Linux?

    I have Ubuntu on my home file server, and Fedora on a cheap laptop too slow for Windows. I have some others on a Raspberry Pi for funzies, and some other distros on VM’s for work practice.

    Headphones vs Earbuds:

    Earbuds are just headphones that go inside your ear. They're just more portable than over the ear headphones for travel or working out.
