  • China to enforce world’s first mandatory EV energy standard in 2026, capping two-tonne models at 15.1 kWh per 100 km

  • It's the same linear proportion either way florez.

  • I'm confused. It's 2x either way.

    10mpg -> 20mpg is 2x increase. 10gal per 100 miles -> 5 gal per 100 miles is 2x decrease.

    20mpg->40mpg is a 2x increase. 5 gal per 100 miles -> 2.5 gal per 100 miles is a 2x decrease.

  • I think I saw this on TV when I was a kid. All I gleaned from it was aliens were releasing CO2 and their knees bent the opposite way ours do. Thank you for mentioning the title, I always wanted to see it again.

  • It's obvious what's going on here. The majority of Republican leaders, along with a few democrats, are actually aliens from a warmer planet. They're here to prepare Earth for the arrival of their civilization, who has already fled their dying world. They're expecting their arrival in the near future.

    The aliens that are already here have infiltrated government, traditional media, and social media organizations around the world and are working to ensure we ignore the science and continue dumping CO2 into the atmosphere. If everything continues "business as usual," then our planet will be nearing perfection by their deadline.

    One of the feasible ways we could cool our planet down is by using airplanes to spray aerosolized sulfates into the stratosphere. We've already been accidentally doing this by burning certain fuels. When "we" recently agreed to stop using such fuels, warming accelerated. Some human scientists have noticed this and believe it would be possible to spray the sulfates in the stratosphere where they would be more effective at cooling the planet and less environmentally damaging than emitting from the ground.

    That is why they're making a preemptive attack on chemtrails, although there is some internal disagreement among the aliens about whether this is the best course of action. One faction believes it is more straightforward to accelerate warming now, hence outlawing sulfate containing fuels and preemptively banning chemtrails. The other faction reasons it would be more disruptive to actually allow chemtrails for cooling purposes. Their thinking is that they could continue to prevent humans from cutting emissions, but allow the humans to artificially cool the planet. The level of CO2 would continue to increase, and then, for spurious economic or geopolitical reasons, the flights would be stopped and therefore the cooling mask pulled off, resulting in a sudden temperature increase. This could be more disruptive than the straightforward plan since it would be more chaotic.

  • Solar Production Question

  • As others have said, just a bit of shade on one panel can impact the entire string. Another weird idea is temperature. Are string B's panels warmer than string A? The warmer they are the less they'll produce.

  • Ford cancels EV battery deal worth $6.5 billion with South Korea's LG Energy Solution

    Jump

  • Is this because Ford will make their own batteries?

  • 2026 Ford Lightning will have all-electric drive train and gasoline-powered range extender

    Jump

  • Nah they're retooling it or something to make batteries for home and industrial storage

  • 2026 Ford Lightning will have all-electric drive train and gasoline-powered range extender

    Jump

  • My understanding is the range extender is essentially a generator that charges the battery while you drive, however I may be wrong. I doubt it's like a Prius that has a complicated transmission that allows the engine to directly power the wheels and/or charge the battery.

    Jump

  • Well from what I've been reading your post hasn't aged poorly. Ford is going to sell home backup batteries and the Lightning will probably still have a large battery, they're just sticking a gas generator on as a range extender if I haven't been misinformed.

  • It also might be easier to defund the department of war. Cutting defense spending might sound unwise to someone who doesn't know whats actually going on. Cutting war spending when there's no war is a much easier sell.

  • Considering a used 2023 Nissan leaf

    Jump

  • There's an app called a better route planner. You can tell it you have a 2023 leaf and then plan that 120 mile trip to make sure the leaf will make it. I've found it to be quite accurate.

  • US air travelers without REAL IDs will be charged a $45 fee

  • I think there are some requirements, might not be fair, but they exist. Also I'm pretty sure wanting to blow up a plane is one of them.

  • Okay that's true but if we circle back to my original point, it would seem that asking to see ID makes sense from a security standpoint.

  • If a person has no weapons and still is "too dangerous" to be on a plane, why are they not in jail?

    I think that's the point, they'll get arrested if they try to fly. Doesn't that make things more secure?

  • There is no actual proven security reason for the TSA collecting this information.

    That doesn't sound right. If there's a list of wanted or potentially dangerous terrorists or criminals, and I provide ID showing that I am not one of those people, isn't that a security reason for showing ID?
