Comment on Amazon's drone delivery program is the joke it always sounded like.
elbarto777@lemmy.world 1 year agoHow do robo-taxis or electric bikes for rent deal with the fuel problem? It’s an already solved issue.
However, you do have a point with malfunctions.
E-bikes and e-scooters are better, but I haven’t personally seen an infrastructure to use them unless they are personally owned and recharged at home. Are there stations for them in the US?
Robo-taxis though are their own can of worms. Discussion about their capabilities can take days.
I’m not sure how it works in the U.S., but in Europe there are stations in which users are encouraged to go to and grab a recharged battery (for a discount.) I’m guessing they have employees who do this as well…
So do gas stations. I wouldn’t say the gas refueling problem isn’t solved because of that.
The first thing you mentioned has nothing to do with fuel, which was your original argument.
As for the second thing, I’ve already said I agreed with you.
I’m okay with being wrong. Check my comment history if you’d like in which I happily admit I’m being corrected.
But you didn’t say “depleted” or “out of fuel.” You said “broken.” And that’s different.
Can you admit that you misspoke, then?

Those don’t tend to fall out of the sky when they run out of power.

Understood, but then robotaxis have run over people without the need of flying.
