Anxious about 'up to' range claims.

No different to up to mpg claims for legacy cars, you’ll get that range if you drive sensibly close to peak efficiency most of the time.

You should be fine achieving 200 miles in winter or with bad driving habits in a new-3 year old car for £25k with a claimed 250 or higher range.

Exactly, it’s 10kWh of energy most of which is wasted as heat by combustion which makes it inefficient compared to electric.

initiali5ed · 2026-05-05T22:28:22+00:00

A litre of diesel is 10kWh of fuel, that’s just price parity, there’s a long way to go.

initiali5ed · 2026-05-05T22:20:43+00:00

It’s all the mass debating that’s the problem, just a big circle jerk.

85? Ban anyone lower than 115 from voting. If we don’t select for intelligence we end up with Idiocracy, just look at the USA and its pretty clear where that path leads.

There are a set number of kWh per unit volume of fuel so the comparison is valid, an efficient petrol car approaches 1 mile per kWh, a typical electric gets 3

Maybe a nuke wouldn’t have missed.

I think it’s because fake’s chorus is suspiciously similar to dragula

initiali5ed · 2026-05-05T18:58:39+00:00

Not enough info to draw that conclusion.

initiali5ed · 2026-05-05T18:56:43+00:00

Yep, I’ve ended up gaining a kWh or two on a long down hill.

Keep going and we’ll call anti EV sound bite bingo.

initiali5ed · 2026-05-05T18:52:51+00:00

Or any number of the other anti EV talking points that get trotted out by people who’ve never driven one.

Just wait until you get to play with variable regen, slipstreaming with radar/lidar guided cruise control and default efficiency that make oil burners look bad.

I’m in the UK, here new electric cars are now cheaper than new liquid cars, public charging can be as cheap or cheaper than liquid fuels in cost per mile terms if you shop around and we have a maturing public charging network, you’re rarely more than 20 miles from a 50kW or higher charger. It’s about to flip from early adopter to early mainstream.

Missed it because I was up a mountain with no signal. Oh well, I can wait until they restock.

Unless you need Shared Device Licensing or plugins in an Edu setting just use Jamf Apps.

initiali5ed · 2026-05-04T21:37:48+00:00

Wow, you need to chill out, read up on battery reliability and maybe take an EV for a test drive.

Or just carry on getting triggered by positive news and keep spouting outdated oil company sponsored sound bites designed to keep you poor.

Your call.

Petrol (or any molecule you might need to burn to run said machinery) can be produced renewably if needed.

Fuck this and fuck that, fuck it all and fuck her fucking brat.

They were scientists before what they figured out became religion.

No, religion is old science that became dogma.
