What’s wrong with VWs?

So, I was such a train kid. When my aunt picked me up from school, we took trams to get to her home but had to switch at the main station, so we had to just sit there and watch the trains come in and leave.

Back then, the first high speed trains were put into service and I was hooked. Like, we had to spend so much more time at the station on the vague hope one of them would maybe come in. I learned to read the huge schedule tables to be able to tell which platform to go to to see them or leave if we had to wait too long.

One christmas, I opened an envelope… In there was a train ticket. One of those fancy new high speed trains.

The whole ride was magic. They had headphone plugs in the armrests, they had screens that showed the current speed. I had a little table I could draw on. It was all so terrific. Seeing the landscape pass by, the new seats, the air suspension. I loved it.

Damn… That’s a good reason.

Not here.

Still driving my eGolf. Why didn’t you keep yours when you preferred it over an SUV?

Mercedes went on to say road vibrations transmitted through the steering wheel are eliminated

How is that a good thing? Don’t purple usually want feedback from the road? If a force acts on my wheels, shouldn’t I feel it in the steering wheel to know what is going on with my car?

consumers ignored the anonymous, electric blob.

It’s not in my price range and I don’t need a car right now, so I guess I’m not the person to salvage their sales numbers, but am I really the only one who likes the design of the eqs and the eqe?

Luckily, you’re not speaking for all of us.

Tbh I really disliked how he made fun of it here, but I watched the Ubuntu / fairphone video he also posted and that really got me intrigued.

The meme doesn’t fit though, does it? This makes it seem like you can get fuel, engines and nukes into space and could just get people into space by replacing nuclear warheads with people. Not by using nuclear warheads.

Sag mal “Klettergerüst”!

That’s why you do it gently ;).

But seriously, it’s an established solution. You don’t need to cool the floor down so much because the area is so big, so you don’t run into condensation issues.

I just won’t. Why on earth would I run those butt-ugly air vents through my house when I can just use the existing underfloor heating to cool down the building via a heat pump in the summer?

Window heat pumps?

Wouldn’t that mean you’d need one for each room while hearing it in every room while also seeing it in each room where it blocks a window while having to install those dreaded American push-up-windows in lieu of our beloved tilt-n-swivel ones?

Nah, thanks, I’m good. I’ll get one central heat pump for the house and that’s it.

Only those that dissolve my dna to produce electricity that’s an order of magnitude more expensive than the one that can be generated from thin air or sunlight.

“damaged”

my home is powered by nuclear energy

Lost me there

This isn’t fixing. This is a bandaid for some symptoms because god forbid we stop burning the planet to the ground.

Makes sense, misunderstood you there.
