Good point, I forgot it was a survey.

20% being fine with it is still worrying to me.

That doesn’t affect how nice it is to drive though, not that I personally would want to touch a clutch pedal.
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
From what I’ve been told by people I know irl (in Germany) that have a house it would have been over thousand euros just for the power connection.
To me who has neither a house nor a car, a solar panel sounds like a lot of money. Getting them used probably isn’t good either?
The power connectors for cars sound cool.

Beta cluster?
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
That sounds rather expensive (if PV is photovoltaic). And I was not aware that cars were built to supply power like that.

Doesn’t mean they can’t raise it :>
- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 3 weeks ago:
I feel like some of those points are slightly more valid in rural areas (especially in the US, where a power pole being knocked over means that the power is out for hours) where the people making those points are more likely to have grown up. Then again if you are not in a rural point of the united states you are less likely to need a car.

My evil plan to blame the French for everything is foiled yet again.

Ahem what do the Swiss speak when not mispronouncing German? You’ll see my point still stands. (Though I do seriously welcome the correction, I did assume Nestlé would not actually be French but I do like poking fun at them)

Ah I should have known the French are to blame…
- Comment on Expecto patronum my ass! 4 weeks ago:
You make a good point, I had not really considered magic guns on the baddie side which is probably the only one which would use it. I was mostly considering single targets which is mostly all that the protagonists fight.
A magic gun could probably also have been used to non fatally injure the dragon in the tri wizard cup.

Oof

Nope, just mercury filled asbestos particles.
- Comment on Expecto patronum my ass! 4 weeks ago:
This whole thing about wands being able to do basically the same as a gun also me realize that one could see the Harry Potter books as a group of kids with stun guns and gadgets fighting the idiot baddies who just use guns and can’t get a single plan to go right because of some dumb bs.
- Comment on Expecto patronum my ass! 4 weeks ago:
This made me think about what would make a magic gun in the setting superior to a regular gun. Assuming it’s just more powerful it shouldn’t make much difference since everyone is just running around with a wand that can kill someone at will anyways. In the case of the weird wand connections that I barely remember even happening outside of one scene in the books (and more often in the films) I suppose it would be useful.
The main advantage of a gun would seem that it is instant (no incantation, just aiming) and could probably be silenced.

You might actually be on to something. My one side of the family has sensitive hearing and I do hear pretty well up to 18±0.55kHz. Aside from loud places it’s rarely an issue though.

How does it not make you want to drop it when screams at you like that?

I tried one and I could not deal with it because it created a high pitched buzz which only me and cats seemed to be able to hear. Glad to know I am not the only one to dislike them.
