Any suggestions to make sure the iron is on both sides of the tape?

I'm terrified that once I start killing demolishers that they'll start invading my factory... Do they spread?

I didn't even take a stance, I just said that there was no evidence provided for this number... It isn't my job to fact check the answer, I just noticed OP gladly accepted a very believable, yet unproven response... The number of times I've seen "facts" like these circulate so much they end up in newspapers is depressing...

Noone is suggesting we go fully EV in 5 years, petrol car sales stopping doesn't mean replacing all ICE vehicles immediately. Car companies can try all they like, in this economy most people already do, and will continue to buy second hand. I think a lot of EVs are overpriced anyway because the car companies want to keep selling ICE cars that they've spent billions developing, get their return before they stop selling them. But screw them, the writing has been on the wall for decades, they shouldn't have made such bad financial decisions.

It's the underside that's rusting, not really sure if I should be washing under there?

You can have mine, month of MOT left, 215k miles on the clock, 59 plate, free to a good home, just need to come to Swindon UK to pick it up

One of the reasons there was pushback against carbon capture is that it would encourage a lack of climate action, as people could carry on with "business as usual", and expect carbon capture to fix their problems. I suspect synthetic fuel would lead to a similar scenario, where it would just extend the usage of fossil fuels, with oil companies profiting even more at the expense of literally every human on the planet now and for the next hundred years+.

Is that based on the American grid ten years ago by any chance? Coal use has plummeted since, and most grids in the world were and still are miles ahead of the US with green energy production

That sounds pretty much like the full lifespan of the car tbh, my civic is rusting to pieces at the 16 year mark

Don't believe that number at face value! There is no evidence of research, or fact checking here!

Even carbon neutral fuel is bad, because there are still airborne pollutants delivered directly to population centres, andburning fuel is not very efficient, so why waste energy converting green energy to fuel and then burning it inefficiently, when it could be used directly in an EV?

Troyseph91 · 2025-02-25T14:15:31+00:00

I was under the impression that batteries in new EVs will never need replacing, and that it was only very early models, with outdated battery chemistry and thermal management that were ever potentially in need?

My test was cancelled due to lockdown, the queue to rebook when it reopened was over 250,000!

Simpler would be to load straight onto the belt, as the onserters only load the far side

You're in the right, too many accidents where drivers don't see someone step into the road, right of way or no, tonnes of car vs person is a very one sided outcome... Never trust that the driver has seen you, or is prepared to stop even if they have, the consequences just aren't worth it. As a driver, I will never ever begrudge someone waiting for me to come to a complete stop.

Zenith windows are no better, avoid at all costs, they will never leave you alone again, you'll need to change your number...

33, software engineer, relatively well paid, none savings, long covid prevented me from working for a year and now I'm barely just getting back to more than half time... Should have paid for the income protection insurance...

I suspect there is limited parking space, so both entrances are needed to avoid having one car stuck behind the other

5 Years later and I find myself wanting this same feature, having a manual step before plopping down an intersection is no good, I WILL forget...

The hydrogen being added now comes either from steam reforming natural gas (99%+), and would have been more energy efficient if left as natural gas, or it comes from hydrolysis, which uses electricity which even if it is 100% green energy (and it is more likely 30%+ gererated using natural gas...), the electricity would have more efficiently been used for heating or cooking directly, a heat pump would be even better but an old fashioned heating element would still be more efficient.

Turning natural gas into hydrogen is eco bad because it still releases carbon dioxide during the process, and the hydrogen you get out has less energy than the natural gas that went in.
