I keep saying, fast charging is more important than long range, especially if you can charge at home or at your workplace.
Most people don’t need hundreds upon hundreds of kilometers range. They just need to be able to charge fast for the couple of times per year they go on a longer trip.
These sorts of specs get us there.
Penny wise pound foolish. The only way not to go through the paper is to go through the rolls.

I absolutely agree.
They probably shouldn’t have named it London in hindsight. But back then of course they probably didn’t know they were going to revisit Liberty City/Vice City/San Andreas a couple of times.
Too bad that’s a 13.5 hour flight.
There are plenty of over-the-top British stereotypes they could do that the rest of the world would also appreciate. Royalty, Jacob Rees-Mogg/Boris Johnson style politicians, Brexit craziness, chavs, Geordie Shore, empire nostalgia.
GTA is satire about American society. Because of Hollywood, TV, and English being the lingua franca of the world, this way they can reach a far bigger audience. You couldn’t do exactly the same game set in Helsinki because the world knows far less about Finnish stereotypes. Ninja Edit: Random thought about satirical games set in Finland: My Summer Car is kind of that game.
But they have explored London before. I think the UK would probably the best setting if you would.
Alright. I thought I’d missed a controversy.
I know some people complain about GTA Online, but with anything as surplus to human needs as video games I’d say just vote with your Dollar.
Why?
Overigens is het wel belangrijk voor journalistiek te betalen als je het kan veroorloven.
Technically I didn’t, so who is putting words in whose mouth?
The Chinese government are a ruthless immoral authoritarians. Say what you want about economic systems, but fuck authoritarians.
In Europe (in my case the Netherlands, but it’s similar in surrounding countries) you cannot pass on the right and you can get fined for it. If you do pass on the right you’re taking a bigger risk because it is not expected.
You can also get fined for staying in the left or middle lane for too long. But that’s somewhat rare. You can get away with it a bit to pass an extra truck (our trucks speed limit is slower) or if the right lane is full and slower than the lane to the left of it, but don’t drive excessively slow on the left. Especially on the Autobahn.
Je bedoelt dat de rechterkant van rechts zo stemmen van gematigd rechts kan pakken? Dat gebeurt nu toch al. Ik denk dat er van klimaatpolitiek echt wel iets rechts te maken is.
Er zijn genoeg aanknopingspunten voor (centrum)rechts. Investeren in innovatieve ondernemers voor de VVD; rentmeesterschap voor CU/CDA/SGP; energieonafhankelijkheid van EU-landen voor Wilders/Baudet/Van Haga/Eerdmans.
Helaas is het voor die laatste anti-intellectuele gekkenbrigade de normaalste zaak van de wereld geworden om de klimaatproblematiek af te doen als boomknuffelaarshysterie. Klimaatpolitiek wordt gezien als zwakte.
Ik vind dat echt een enorme gemiste kans.
Ik snap echt niet dat rechts de energietransitie niet effectiever als energieonafhankelijkheid verkoopt.
Die “linkse hobbies” van het aanschaffen van warmtepompen, zonnepanelen, thuisaccu’s, e.d. zijn toch echt wel hobbies van mensen die per huishouden 2x modaal en meer verdienen.
I’m privileged in that I live in perhaps the country with the densest coverage of EV infrastructure anywhere (except for maybe a microstate or two), but in the 7 months of driving an EV I’ve not once experienced range anxiety.
You can’t do huge roadtrips without a recharge every 250-350km in this relatively more affordable model, but for daily driving it’s like waking up with a full tank every day. If I visit friends 200km away, I just park at a destination charger and walk the last 200 meters.
At least right now that’s is a lot more viable than hydrogen. I can’t fill up in my town. I can fill up near my work 35m away. But it would a hassle.
In Dutch, the only (one) is “de enige”. People often use “de enigste”, which actually means the cutest. Enig -> enigste.
“Ik ben als enigste over” “Ja, schattig ben je zeker”
"“Ich bin der Einzigste, der noch übrig ist” “Ja, du bist wirklich süß”
“I’m the only one left.” “Yeah, cute you sure are”
Oh absolutely. I was trying to say the charging time is the impressive bit.
My Volkswagen ID.3 charges at 100kW max (maaybe a bit faster since update 3.2 but I haven’t tried) but that quickly goes down to 60/70kW. I would love for it to go from sub 10% to 80% in 15 minutes. Usually I have to wait 30-40 minutes for that (rough estimate). For me that’s a little bit too long for a quick pee if you’re traveling say 1000km/day.
Fast charging is what enables longer trips, not necessarily just having a bigger batter. Here in Western Europe there aren’t really any dark spots where you absolutely cannot go by BEV with just an “okay range” anymore, so range is far less important. And for 95% of my use having it be 80% (250-350km) when I leave for daily activities is absolutely fine.
