You and I will never be friends

Gov Shapiro, Gov Whitmire, Sen Kelly. The first two probably get their state off the contested map. I don’t know if Kelly can deliver AZ.

Fine.

First of all, only 1% of gas cars make it to 200k miles. So even if we accept your contention about battery loss, 99% of EVs will last as long as gas cars.

Second, EVs lose experience about 10% capacity loss per 100k miles. Some a little more, some a little less. So at 200k miles they’ll still have somewhere around 80% of their initial range. Your 20% estimate is wrong, except maybe for Nissan Leaf which had poor heat management. My Chevy bolt had 50k miles on it with no appreciable capacity loss.

Third, battery replacement on a tesla is around $13k which is not 5-10 times the cost of the car. Battery prices are also decreasing as more of them are made, so the cost will be lower in the future.

I don’t expect any of this will change your mind, since it’s based on Fox News talking points, but I don’t want other people misled.

Not a tesla fan, but also not in the business of refuting uninformed but confidently held opinions.

There’s a lot of misinformation here that I’m not even going to bother to respond to

It’s decentralized, so across everyone’s balls

My parents have a 2013 Model S that’s doing just fine. It’ll last 20 years I’m sure.

They last as long or longer than most ICE cars

No, you get more content on /local, but the same content as any other instance on /all (assuming your instance isn’t defederated from other big instances).

I was feeling stupid for a minute there

Oh yeah I got some tidy whities just for that occasion

The underwear part?

During winter war soviet general hears someone shouting from wood - “One finnish soldier is better than ten soviet”. Angry general sends ten man to deal with annoying Fin. After short period of shots and dying soviets screams, comes another shout - “One finnish soldier is better than hundred soviet”. General sends hundred soldier and again none of them comes back. Then general hears third shout - “One finnish soldier is better than thousand soviets”. Furious general sends thousand man to deal with him. This time one of his soldiers manage to survive and reports to general - “Sir, please don’t send more of our troops, it’s a trap, there’s two of them”.

I think it’s a harder problem when you’re the one that has to do the torturing. It’s easier to say “yeah that dude should get tortured” than to do the waterboarding yourself. Unless you’re fucked in the head of course.

So you’re not really asking a question, just making a vague point?

You new what they meant

Strategery

Truthiness

That’s not what nefarious means.

adjective: nefarious (typically of an action or activity) wicked or criminal. “the nefarious activities of the organized-crime syndicates”

This looks like something an incel would write
