Nothing in that comment discussed plugin hybrids though.

A non plug-in hybrid will be more efficient than a full gas vehicle because of the efficiency you can gain through minimizing the engine and tuning it for a more limited rpm range.

This ideally carries over to a plug-in hybrid in the same way even if it's never plugged in, if all the gas engine does is charge the battery it can be more efficient than a gas only car due to reduced engine size requirements.

Continuing to speak is a bad look on you.

You talk shit out of your ass.

The only advantage to a canoe is it's slightly drier than the water and slightly less sandy than the beach.

Look we all hate Elon and how neuralink is developing their tech that's not in question here.

People are taking issue with your referring to desperate people with very very poor quality of life due to injuries or medical conditions as "brain dead"

They aren't "brain dead", dumb or stupid, they are reaching for what looks like the only potential light in their life. A life that is probably impossibly difficult for any of us typically healthy people to imagine.

2016 was 8 years ago, that means by your definition twitter spent nearly half it's existence as a toxic cesspool

Yeah for Hawaii that pricing is sort of expected, but for anything mainland that prices is just disgusting

50 cents per kWh sounds fucking insane to me. That's like 5-6 times more than I pay in Canada.

We'll Tesla's happen to be a shitty book cover to cover, written by an asshole.

So they could at least try to make the cover appealing, even if they are incapable of making the rest of it so.

No because it came off of over a decade of research, the mRNA vaccine delivery had been in development for years, COVID is also a type of virus related to other viruses they had developed or were developing vaccines for.

This was not some weekend project dumped out with no thought.

It's not odd at all that people are willing to take the vaccines. Hundreds of doctors and scientists have been involved in the process of determining how viruses work, how the body fights them how we can use that to improve the bodies response and then how to safely package that for delivery to every person in the country.

There is no blind faith here except for that of doubters, just literal thousands of hours of dedication and science.

Go lookup CANDU reactors, we have designs already that can't steam explode themselves and instead will fail safe. Also just to be clear nuclear reactors don't perform a nuclear explosion if they fail, the Chernobyl explosion was a steam explosion that threw nuclear material into the air.
