Only if you assume a meaning for "intonation unit" that fits your presumption.

"Our brains have been structured for it on an evolutionary scale."

Yours isn't working too well.

Keep telling yourself how smart you are, and how much better prepared you are than everyone else.

Sounds like something NewsMax would say. Suits you.

The Chinese are the world's leading manufacturers of Lithium batteries, you know, your geopolitical adversary, no less.

"The problem isn't (necessarily) the battery technology, per se."

It's bad charge management over the life of the cells. That's why AMERICAN devices are known to catch fire, AMERICAN software causes the cells to fail.

But your racism sounds better, right?

"The problem is aged and low-quality batteries."

Sounds like a fact pulled out of your ass.

But hey, customers will love the sale of their laptops being banned, as will Apple. Good thing /. is here to solve our problems!

Passengers will be pleased to have all their personal electronics banned from planes.

It's easier to talk about banning batteries, harder to talk about banning cell phones. This isn't a new problem, regulations already exist.

"Global Warming won't end civilization..."

Because billionaires will first.

"...but the already poor real estate choices that have had issues for decades for many reasons will get weeded out."

Ans so will a lot of productive farm land. And countless species. And those millions of people that die? They were doomed anyway.

This is what a partisan apologist looks like.

Sure took a long time to find the relevant comment. This is the most significant problem that faces the younger generation. And if they can't afford a new car, they can't afford the single-family home with a 240V charging outlet in a private garage.

"This expert crap trotted out blaming poor working Americans for not buying enough stuff to keep rich people rich is, well rich!"

Rich people's solution is to simply own the "poor working Americans" outright.

"What else are us poor people not doing enough of?"
Sacrificing.

"But sure...keep coming up with excuses for why people don't have an EV."

A really good one is that they can't afford one. That's true for ICE vehicles as well. Another thing people can't afford is home ownership. In 10 years the argument will be moot unless we get our shit together. Instead, we elect people dedicated to the destruction of our country and elimination of voting entirely.

We should stop ignoring that the first problem to solve is that we don't live in a society that supports a good living standard for working people at all. Soon, private transportation will be for the wealthy, and the wealthy won't care that they are polluting the environment of the undeserving.

"Not believing it. Something in the circuit must limit the current or you would trip the circuit breaker each time you plugged in your charger. It's like saying your coffee pot is stupid and will use all 15 Amps every time it is plugged in. Something in the device will limit the current. If your current charger (pun intended) requires 50A then that is a design decision by your car manufacturer, but doesn't mean every charger has to be the same."

You don't know what an EVSE is nor do you understand the EV charging problem. It is the EV that "limits the current", there is nothing else. The EV needs to know what to limit the current TO, the EVSE tells it. There is EVERY reason to believe that many EVSEs that may come with cars are not very configurable and do not support low current 240V.

"I said he has a range installed in his garage. I didn't say anything about using it to cook food.

He uses it for powder coating small parts of various kinds."
You didn't say it was installed, only that he had own. And cooking small parts also requires ventilation.
Again with the bad faith. Is that all you've got?

"Not the kind of guy who would own an EV either. (;"
You've found your forever home, surrounded by people who think like you do.

Part of his junk no doubt.

To cook in a garage requires more than just a range. Some homeowners may convert a garage for this purpose but it is uncommon.

It's remarkable just how bad-faith your posts are.

Indeed, and we know how the "extreme fire-safety" people love filling garages with junk, it really solves those fire safety concerns.

Sure you don't, but that doesn't explain the inflammatory post that only addressed EVs.
