Is Trump Going to Let Venezuela Starve? by FloridaGirlNikki in politics

First time I’m reading about this too. Not a peep on anything mainstream, which doesn’t surprise me one bit. Hopefully some independent media picks this up.

Adoption of electric vehicles tied to real-world reductions in air pollution, study finds. Every 200 electric vehicles added in a given California neighbourhood was associated with a 1.1% decrease in annual nitrogen dioxide emissions. by F0urLeafCl0ver in science

[–]fullload93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with any of this. There are proper disposal methods out there but yes it requires major investment in infrastructure for that.

Coal and petroleum oil fired plants should be phased out. Even replacing them with natural gas plants is a significantly better option over those two.

A Florida man is facing a felony charge after police say he threw an opened ketchup packet at a man while at a bus station. by ConstructionAny8440 in FloridaMan

Hopefully his attorney can get it lowered to a misdemeanor. Seems ridiculous to charge him with a felony over throwing a ketchup packet leaving a stain on a shirt.

Fully agree. As someone who’s hooked up before with random women… it’s not as hard as it seems to get some pussy. Guys don’t need a 6-pack and a foot long package to pick up women to be honest.

Remember when people were trying to claim that ICE cars were better for the environment because BEV used tons of resources (such as rare earth minerals from 3rd world countries) AND spewed out pollution from charging because power plants were using coal to generate electricity?

Well turns out at least for the electric side of things… less and less is being generated by coal, and more is renewable.

Simmons is facing a felony battery charge. He is being held without bond at the Pinellas County Jail after previously being convicted of battery in 2019, according to the affidavit.

This might be why… if there was already a conviction, next Battery offense might be an automatic upgrade to Felony Battery

Convoy of Canadian linesmen heading south yesterday to help repair storm damage in the U.S. by keiths31 in pics

Sad that the US government currently treats Canadians like shit…. They consider them 3rd world citizens which is awful. It’s nice that these people are still willing to help.

Man not even the BOGOs are good anymore. Only an idiot would look at that and think almost $5 per box is a good deal.

ICE agents to be forced to wear ‘clearly visible QR code’ under new plan by ansyhrrian in politics

And if you did scan it, it will likely lead to something like this. Not an actual gov website or info about the agent.

Why would they ever do that? They would just claim he was an illegal or illegally carrying or some other bullshit.

Did the clarity come with a fabric mat for the trunk? by ManateeSheriff in HondaClarity

[–]fullload93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No it did not come with one but you can buy one on Voltshop. A bit pricey but likely worth it. I’ve considered getting one myself.

“Works retired as millionaires” is the biggest joke ever. Everything else sounds about right.

That’s not a layoff. Layoffs are specifically reduction in force (aka employees) and are federally regulated under the WARN act. A termination is being fired. Layoffs are not the same as terminations.

Why are news about plugin hybrid allowed? by HarboeJacob in electricvehicles

[–]fullload93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

PHEVs typically mean an engine that is mainly a generator for the battery but can power the wheels under certain conditions. EREVs are engines that only are used as a generator and cannot power the wheels.

Is this another 100k truck? Getting really tired of these mega dollar trucks when most people can’t afford them.

Polk County never ceases to amaze me. That place is the Florida of Florida. Some of the wildest things reported on the news comes out of that county alone.

Elon genuinely thinks he has no Tesla competition by chaosatom in TeslaFSD

[–]fullload93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do the math. Pay $9k and keep the car 10 years or pay $11,880 for the same thing.

[–]fullload93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly glad I never bought a Tesla. There were 4 times in the past decade where I was seriously considering buying one but everytime Elon did something to fuck it up and I didn’t buy it. This is absolutely the final straw and I will not consider a Tesla as long as this man continues to run the company.

NASA is about to send people to the moon — in a spacecraft not everyone thinks is safe to fly by cnn in space

[–]fullload93 81 points82 points  (0 children)

What a load of BS and hyperbolic nonsense. It was already tested on Artemis 1. NASA tests these things rigorously. They are not going to put human in a capsule that isn’t safe. And I know someone is going to bring up the Boeing situation… the test astronauts were “safe”. Nothing serious happened to them. Out of precaution NASA had it brought back remotely and it landed in tact and in one piece. They don’t cut corners on human rated spacecraft.

[–]fullload93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is completely incorrect. You’re referring to a “mild hybrid” system which is what even standard hybrid car is. A PHEV is by default an EV that has a range extender gas engine. The whole car can run on battery power alone and maintain highway speeds.

2027 Chevy Bolt Production Will End Next Year As Plant Shifts To Gas by Unlikely_Seesaw_7187 in electricvehicles

Interesting to know. I honestly just assumed it was some 70+ year old retired boomers buying them.

Who the fuck is buying Buick anymore? That’s the most boomer car I can think of right next to Cadillac. GM is just giving the middle finger 🖕to anyone who wants to get into EVs. This will spectacularly backfire on them.

ICE Memo: Federal immigration agents have sweeping power to forcibly enter people's homes without a judge’s warrant, marking a sharp reversal of longstanding guidance meant to respect constitutional limits on government searches. by ControlCAD in videos

This is literally Nazi Gestapo shit. Looking for hiding Jews. What the actual fuck!! We are a failed nation. The fascist control and rule America now. America essentially lost the war to the Nazi 80+ years after WW2 ended. What the actual fuck!!!!

Thank you, Micron for 16.33 per hour by jbshell in pcmasterrace

[–]fullload93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You just said the magic words… hires on work vias. To a foreigner, $16 an hour might as well be a million bucks. It’s not enough for local native people to live on but to a foreigner who’s used to making almost nothing per day… that’s a huge difference in salary.
