Incorrect assumption is incorrect

Currently being worked upon is the fact that there is a MASSIVE amount of energy that can be produced by power stations that isn't being used. Could the power grid cope with the extra charging? Easy answer is yes, as long as the cars used smart charging techniques and drew the power during low use periods. Sorry but the industry and acedmic sectors are already way ahead of you.

Also if they manage the base load fof the power stations using electric vehicle charging, they can smooth out the electricity production curves and make the power stations more efficient, there by helping to reduce the "dirty" production.

Your 8 hour charge time for the Tesla is also a bad assumption. You are assuming the battery will be completely drained before charging. If you top-up the car each night before bed, or while you are at work, or even while you are doing ANYTHING ELSE, you won't even notice the charging.

Fossil fuels are going to be replaced. No, i don't think battery electric vehicles are ready to take over yet, but they are nowhere near as bad as "some people" like to make out.

"they are like two boots, you can't tell which is more corrupted"

I can tell which one of my boots is more corrupt, it's the one with the goaty beard.

Oh dear............

"Its a Lidar gun however the state of Florida recognizes it as a radar gun... No facts supporting your comment"

pentatonic dinosaur, you've just been made...........

Extinct

Not really.................

It's remarks like that that make us read el reg. However, it's comments like your's that make us think you are a pompous idiot.

Troll, cuz it's the closest thing to a facepalm icon that i can see.

Not so smart, are ya?

I did post something with three links in, guess moderators didn't like it.

Look in the opearting system options. Pretty sure "SUSE LINUX" is a linux operating system. Can't be sure though.

Try harder.

See that joke alert sign?

Can you guess what it means?

I think you will find the bloke came up with it to remind the woman that he was the "last on ya"

Why not go the whole hog and just use a cattle brand?

Don't know where you come from......

But we probably bombed your house at some point to make you so miffed and deluded.

Bigger sample size requried......

I've found dozens of dead "new" batteries in laptops. Then again, I was a laptop engineer for about 4 years so i've seen hundreds if not thousands of the bloody things. Maybe you need a bigger sample size........................

Profiling does not just mean "he's brown, nick him". Profiling is a very useful method to pick out possible targets from a crowd of people. I'm sure you would be the first to complain if every single person was padded down before they got on to an aircraft.

If i was travelling alone on an aircraft, i would expect to be checked more thoroughly than a family. I'm not "brown", i don't have long hair and i don't wear a trenchcoat, but i would still be more likely to be picked out and searched.

Also, i love that brown is the new black.

It's no wonder you posted anonymously.

There is NO research to show a strong link between game violence and real violence. Point me to one NON-GOVERNMENT research paper that points in that direction.

You may be right however, because everytime someone says something this rediculous i want to bash their heads in with a shovel.
