Ah right, V4 is the one that fixed the cable length

The older ones works in Europe but the problem is those cables are so short there’s no good way to reach the other side of the vehicle without blocking the next lot (VW and most non-Teslas have the charging port on the opposite side)

Has internet’s new favorite number peaked?

Brownshirts calling themselves ”conservatives” doesn’t mean all conservatives are brownshirts

That’s true with many small countries but what’s interesting about Hungary is that they consistently end up on the wrong side of history

I just assumed it went through Serbia etc. But I guess it makes sense, it’s a EU country after all. I guess they have to blow it up on the Russian side then

Are you sure it’s not a s simple as 1) put ”AI” in business plan 2) get tons of investor capital 3) exit, profit?

The oligarchs bringing forward green tech would of course never be the oligarchs that already profited from oil. Why take a risk when you have something to lose?

Renewables is part of it, but overlay with GDP growth and you realize that’s not all there is to it

Is that true? Why don’t they just demolish it then?

The whole point of return to office policies is to reduce headcount

Star Wars Kid, Russia edition 😎

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

The right man to use ”ripped off the American public” 🤪

Then the competition had to up their game unfortunately. Apple Music doesn’t come close. It’s not all about audio quality

When will Tesla shareholders finally realize what their customers have already established: that Elon is a liability to the company, not an asset

Meanwhile the Polish people are probably grateful the Ukrainians are taking the bullets for the rest of the free world

And all 100k remaining people would proudly place #188 out of #190 on the HDI scale

Luckily it’s not about cannon fodder. An expensive arms race will leave Russian economy in the dust. Just like 1990

Yes they are probably not available on Aliexpress either 😝

Interesting engineering exercise to remote control a manual transmission, but surely it must be more practical to base the vehicle on an automatic?

Cracking the jet engine problem will be a major milestone

And by choosing Wagner it will be one of Al Qaeda, Xi or Trump. And it will not be their choice…

Also: Nigeria is rich in rare earths. Did China talks not go that well perhaps?

Are countries taking this opportunity to become self sufficient on energy or are they creating a new dependence?

True, which is why it took 100 years from theory to practice.

And so is probably the experimental verification of tectonic plate movement, though Wikipedia had it at number of decades between theory and validation

It is a common misconception that spaceflight is a particularly advanced scientific problem. The theory was figured out in the 1800s if not earlier. It takes an arms race and a more advanced economy to muster the financial resources to actually build them though

Still, you’d think they would bring something more refined than ”machine gun on Toyota truck” to defend their capital and government buildings

”Second most powerful” army in the world uses the equipment of a Somalian terrorist group

Belgium just doesn’t want their taxpayers to have to bail out the banks if some courts turn and twist this the way lawyers always do. Understandable. The solution is to make it irreversible that this money is forfeited and that no prior law or international contract or anything else change it
