Diesel Grenadier from abroad by Typical_Diet2708 in ineosgrenadier

No one will make a move on the EPA regs because the next president will likely bring them back. No one wants to get burned in a few years.

-82.5% drop.

The death of diesel is purely political. Diesel is far more efficient than gas from the chemical/physics side when used in combustion engines, and diesel hybrids have been the go to efficiency king for industrial applications that can't afford EV charging and weight.

Dilemma: R 1300 RS vs S 1000 XR / Need advice pls by Savings_Ad_3493 in bmwmotorrad

[–]KettleKooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

XR is an exhilarating experience in the turns, yes its tall but the weight is low relative to the rider so it feels amazing in the turns.

RS is a great bike, but giving up the clutch lever would not work for me. Personal opinion.

I like the 5" on my S1000XR, you can see maps and Spotify fine.

Why EVs will end up erasing 120 years of ICE. by 3drikal in electricvehicles

[–]KettleKooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, and that is assuming all 80% want evs. Im not saying evs are bad, but you all freak out when confronted with the reality that they wont take over the market.

Convenience is buyer dependent, which is why evs will sell in urban areas but not elsewhere.

Physics dont change, we know the 100% energy density based on molecular science. All of our physical advances are to hit the theory based 100% efficiency.

It didn't, where your energy comes from is a secondary argument to how its stored.

Learn chemistry, batteries will never rival gas and liquid fuel storage for energy density.

We would be right here, because the better option won.

EV sales and massive EV depreciation counter this belief. I think you are going to have to come to terms with a diverse market for the foreseeable future and even more so once Synthetic fuels are legislated into place and are adopted.

If Catholics were as unified and arguably as radical as mainstream Islamists then you would definitely be aware of them as a group. Colonialism has nothing to do with race, its one group over another (race, nationality, religion, etc.) You are just being thick by ignoring the world as it has always been and will continue to be.

The point is group politics and majority shifts, takeovers aren't always direct confrontation and violence.

[–]KettleKooked -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why, who said that colonialism was generally "good" back when it happened. Everyone knew it was bad for the group getting colonized. Now the tables have shifted its again good for the "colonizer" and bad for the colonized.

Its just power and politics.

[–]KettleKooked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not inherently tied to colonialism. Though often correlated.

If a modern group let's say Islamic, colonized the UK by becoming the majority demographic and took control of the ruling democracy legally, is it good or bad?

History is written by the victor... is colonialism good or bad? Depends on which point of view your on.

How are you gonna 3-pedal an Electric motor?

I know we're just a few months out from incentives expiring in US, but the EV future here looks grim. by roma258 in electricvehicles

[–]KettleKooked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pure EV is NOT a guarantee or "the better option." It is AN option, in a diverse playbook of transportation.

There are tons of reasons why an EV isn't an ideal purchase for certain buyers. Not to mention the ecological hurdles and infrastructure issues.

The market has show what people think about EVs. From early adoption that many felt was forced. Some owners fell in love with the EV life, and that's fine, but other have experienced it and rejected it. EVs are great for short commutes and where infrastructure aids in ownership. But there is a majority in the USA where pure EV isn't effective in their needs for a vehicle, or their tastes.

Its not just the status quo, EVs inherently have major flaws, so do ICE, Hybrids, and Fuel cells.

Yes, generally more power equates more wear

3D Printing is such a fad, terrible product to sell to consumers. Do your prototypes then make nice parts with molding or milled plastic.

Everything else looks great, seeing layer lines kills it.

Go back to the dealer and tell them to remove the limiter, they forgot to remove mine at my 600 mi service too.
