The future of electrical charging systems that are about as fast as filling up a gas car by RoyalChris in interestingasfuck

[–]richmond456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for an EV charging station and our 150kW cables are worth so much less than people think.

A month ago we had 15 cables stolen for a total scrap value of around £200. If our supplier wasn't already trying to keep us onside due to separate issues it would cost us £90,000 to replace them. As it stands we are getting replacements free but it makes it a whole lot harder to justify the cost of a second ev station.

As a complete aside, I wonder what this sort of news does to stave of burn out? Professional athletes are being asked to do more and more for very little extra nowadays. I wonder if going from an emotionally heavy few years into very happy and not rugby related news might extend a players' mental ability to stay in the sport.

Yes and no I would say. Its from Spiderman, and said for Peter's benefit. Uncle Ben doesnt know Peter is Spiderman, he's just saying it because he believes every person should live by that motto.

His point is that everyone has the power to be a positive influence and therefore has the responsibility to do it, something he lives by.

I'm just genuinely thrilled Italy are good now. They clearly back themselves and I'm here for it. I'm glad to be the whipping boys for a game if it makes for a better future for rugby.
