- Comment on BYD’s Second-Generation Blade Battery Makes Western EV Tech Look Ancient 1 day ago:
If you’re lucky and the charger has a CSS2 port it might be cut off or the machine has the connector but only gives 3KW or…
I’m happy because I can charge at home. But when I have to charge on the road…

In Spain you have 4 or 5 years before the first safety inspection. And the then, if it’s a van or bigger it’s each 6 months and if it’s a car, 1 year.

In the worst case scenario, charging is almost the same price for the same distance. In the best case (at home) is 10x cheaper.

I don’t know if it would work but… Could an infrared laser expel enough heat?
- Comment on Newish to Fediverse - do I use one account across all services? 2 weeks ago:
I’m thinking of a federated validation service. The check should be only the first time you use the instance and then at random to check if it’s still valid. And the service could have a journal of instances and send then a message if an account changes. This last part as an option.
The account should be the bare minimum data: name, password, contact and little more.
- Comment on Newish to Fediverse - do I use one account across all services? 2 weeks ago:
It would be great if there was a “federated auth service” for all the instances. One account that you could use in each server you like.
- Comment on Cubans fight blackouts with solar as US extends oil chokehold 2 weeks ago:
But having a guy like him push for oil is the best campaign for renewables. If it was for him I’m sure we’d use gasoline even to season the salads.

I guess it was for the same reason Wolverine’s suit is yellow: it looks good on paper.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | 1x06 "Come, Let's Away" 2 weeks ago:
The only thing that upset me was the “on/off” Caleb’s trousers. Every plane change the trousers “toggled”.

- Comment on Kate Mulgrew Defends ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ And Captain Ake From “Disrespectful” Online Attacks 3 weeks ago:
I don’t mean the name itself. I mean the way Michael behaves. Even more when you think that she was adopted by a Vulcan family.
- Comment on Kate Mulgrew Defends ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ And Captain Ake From “Disrespectful” Online Attacks 3 weeks ago:
My main problem with DIS has a name: Michael Burnham. Not the actress, the script.
And about your question: no, the crying is only in scenes that work (traumatic or sentimental enough) unlike DIS.

It’s the “pull the ladder” mentality.
- Comment on Google criticizes Europe's plan to adopt free software 3 weeks ago:
Maybe the answer is having a PC only for those games. As a console. Like some people bought the N64 just to play Zelda and nothing else.
