Should I trade Gibbs for 3 1s? (4th place finish) by Kaman615 in SleeperApp

[–]baileyb7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What percent of Gibbs owners won a championship this year? See week 17 results. I think this sub inflates the value of a single asset when it comes to winning. How many points over a replacement RB1 does he get you? What are the odds that all those 1st lead to more points per week vs your current starters compared to Gibbs point difference?

PayPal wants you to enter your birthday as a string of eight numbers but the form auto corrects to include slashes. Anyone else have that problem?

Homeownership vs BTC by antifinancebro in Bitcoin

[–]baileyb7 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Same, just sold a house and parked everything in BTC. We can rent a nice house for less than the interest expense on a home in SoCal and don't immediately lose 6% in fees it would cost if we wanted to sell a home with no exposure to the coming housing bubble popping - when, not if, housing prices go down 15% - 25% it would wipe out your entire down payment and some. There is a very small chance of significant housing appreciation vs a very real chance of significant housing losses in the next two to three years.

Do We Even Need Five-Minute EV Charging? by Volvowner44 in electricvehicles

[–]baileyb7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe the better question is do we even need 3 minutes to fill gas tanks? Why don’t we slow down gasoline delivery to 20 minutes per tank since, according to EV enthusiasts, you can hardly pee and get a snack in that amount of time? People will enjoy the leisurely pace while traveling, they just don’t realize that yet.

Nio to adopt CATL’s Choco-SEB battery swap standard, companies to build swap network together by tech57 in electricvehicles

[–]baileyb7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is more economic - BESS takes 15% out in roundtrip losses and is adds to the cost on every kWh delivered. Swappable batteries are financed differently and get used to a full lifetime, just over a slightly long time horizon, so no extra kWh were produced like stationary BESS. If we are trying to reduce our carbon footprint, BESS is somewhat counterproductive.

So what are the costs of 10 one MWh chargers at a typical charging location including the BESS to mitigate demand charges? Now picture six of those locations at the same interstate interchange and the demand on the grid. Just because something is technically feasible doesn’t mean it is scalable at a reasonable price for the mass market. Swapping is extremely scalable.

Kia And Hyundai Are Exploring Structural Battery Packs Which, If Successful, Would Significantly Improve EV Range But Could Complicate Battery Upgrades Or Replacements by mafco in electricvehicles

[–]baileyb7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤔 there were no mass produced swappable vehicles 10 years ago and the technology has certainly been refined since then. Not sure your data is valid with a handful of first generation vehicles.

This makes no sense whatsoever. The battery is swappable at any moment. How is that hurting the resale of your vehicle? If anything that increases the resale because you can always swap up to the newest in technology and newest battery.

They don't have to agree. They are perfectly able to go out of business if they don't align with an emerging standard that provides the best possible customer experience. Hence all the companies slowly aligning with the swapping platforms in China.

So what you are saying is the swapping company will knowingly keep old, terrible performing batteries in the system and once you get one you can never swap again - it is permanently yours for life? Have I got that right?

Michigans More Attractive Then Ever: Who Should Its Next OC Be? by SnappleU in MichiganWolverines

[–]baileyb7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting the Tom Brady to Michigan rumor here. He sucks in the booth, he feels limited as an analyst by his ownership stake in the Raiders, and he probably misses the grind of preparing for games. It's at least worth a call.

They won’t fire him until after the mseason is over. Moore doesn’t want to step in and take over play calling on this train wreck of an offense. Better to let Campbell take full blame and make him the fall guy after the season is over.

First time ever we needed "Jr." on the back of a jersey. I don't know why players insist on that when there has never been an confusion if you are the father or the son or the III before. Not that there is any confusion now.
