  • You have to account for all of the additional hardware that is required to enable swapping of batteries. Have you ever picked up an EV battery they are incredibly heavy and huge. I really can’t see how you would do it without using the kind of engine lifting equipment that mechanics have.

    I can’t see it as practical or safe to allow general members of the public to use them. Even if you can pick them up, which you can just about do, you would seriously risk injuring your back.






  • It doesn’t matter. Facebook are going to do what Facebook are going to do.

    But we know for definite that community notes actually do work at dissuading disinformation. So whatever some third-party may or may not do isn’t really relevant. Especially considering we already know they don’t do shit because Facebook is already utter cluster fuck with absolutely no recourse for the truth.

    I would also point out that community notices are already better than nothing which is of course the alternative here. Facebook all removing any kind of verification in exchange for user verification which is a lot better than removing verification exchange for nothing. So whether or not use a verification is better is irrelevant. Since no other option is being presented



  • I suspect the reason for that was that the pumps used in car ACs are not really very powerful. They were alright for cooling the car down, but for heating heat up in a cold environment you need a fair amount of throughput, they work if you have the throughput, but you need it to be there.

    They work by pulling ambient heat out a large part of the outside and dumping it into the small inside. You need many times the contents of the interior to warm up if it’s a cold day outside. Thus you need a lot of air and if you want it to happen in a reasonable time frame you need quite a powerful little motor. The ones on houses are fine because they’re huge anyway.
