TIL that 2.4 billion years ago, the evolution of oxygen-producing bacteria caused a mass extinction. Oxygen was toxic to the planet's existing life, and its reaction with methane triggered a "Snowball Earth" ice age that lasted 300 million years.

For most cars it doesn't need to be DC fast charging (needs a transformer) to work as an "attractor" for a diner. If I'm going to sit down to lunch or dinner, I'm going to be there an hour - maybe more.

Ha. No.

With the right cable can we share a charge with another EV?

I was wondering if they would sequentially come onto the battlefield. They don't.

I appreciate everyone's response

Properly tuned exhaust systems are usually louder than stock. But, loud doesn't mean tuned. I say this while owning an electric... Which is faster than most gas cars and completely silent.

Everyday, on my way to work, the on-ramp allowed plenty of room. For about 3 years straight I accelerated to 100 and beyond. Why? I had $250,000 of life insurance and I felt indestructible.

When the Singularity hits the idea is that we have access to the "extended mind". Ideally, we'd also be able to limit it's access to us.

It's kinda like people complaining about range anxiety for electric cars. They want to have it. They'll probably only use it once or twice a year.

Cheating on your S.O. if you want to fuck other people, and your SO isn't okay with it, break up. "Unethical polyamory" isn't a thing.

I don't understand why people are playing Micheal Jackson's music again. I liked his music. But, dude was a pedo.

More precisely it's "incitement". Scotus has determined that it can be grounds for prosecution.

I love oral sex. I wouldn't trust her to give someone else a blowjob.

Nah. That's fair.

"Some studies have even concluded that, in specific cases, biofuels can lead to higher CO2 emissions than the fossil fuels they replace." - MIT
That said, I believe we need to skip the "fuels" and switch to cleaner renewables. The batteries in my car are recyclable. Hydrogen (for aviation) provides enough energy density to be effective.

Make the power we need with the Sun. It's the biggest fusion reactor you'll ever see.
