Well this is an EV forum so I am not going to engage in human psychology and evolution over time discussion here. But that concept has been changing for a long time now. The idea of a tribe as it was and what it means today are not at all the same.
Well civil discourse and basic rules of...
Well maybe that's the problem. Everyone now thinks they are all special, they are all part of a team/tribe, that everyone else is the enemy. This is not warfare and to in any way equate civil society with war is extremely dangerous, wrongheaded and probably explains the decline of the state of...
Great advice. We can extend that to politeness and civility online, electronic, in person, in real life, to friends, strangers, enemies and allies.
But alas some people seem to thrive on bullying behavior and respond out of fragile egos. The funny part is most of the time these same people...
In the period of time when I was active around here Tony was informative, but intolerant and rude and acted like he was the only person with knowledge on various topics. I would go as far as to say he would cross the line into abusive.
Case and point from Monday on Mirai/hydrogen thread...
This is way off topic but can't help myself: I am not sure what you mean. What is the difference between Apple PAYING for massive new production lines for its products by using subcontractors and actually building said factories and then shutting them later (like car makers do)? Also call car...
That's only if you are assuming that there will be no cars that go with those. Which is rather a silly assumption, no?

I don't think Apple can do it, but I just HAVE TO point out that there was a great speech by Balmer at Microsoft, who at the time had a big majority of the smart phone market, about how Apple is going to learn a hard lesson about trying to make phones...
Then again there is no longer a Steve...
It sounds like maybe a capacitor that has blown somewhere, they tend to smell very chemically sometimes. But the problem is that would definitely have some functional symptoms. Would you describe it as more acrid/sharp or more like burnt/melted plastic?
I haven't bought and read the original paper yet, but essentially the headline is a bit misleading. The summary focus is mostly on the fact that the efficiency of the power train of a BEV should be accounted into the equation of "efficiency" when comparing to ICE vehicles (which is perfectly...
I don't disagree with your assessment. But I just want to say I for one have learned a bit from your and a select few other posters on this thread over time. There seem to be only two kinds of posts: reasoned discussion with open mind, able to see multiple facets. And ones that are just...
Now I'll be the first one to admit the Mirai is underwhelming in styling and general ride/drive from what I've seen in reviews. But I didn't expect much from Toyota. I'd be curious what a BMW FCEV may look like.
But the tesla model s is NOT a luxury car, it's barely a step up in interior from...
I just don't see the and/or proposition. BEVs lend themselves very well for home/off grid charging. FCEVs lend themselves very well to public infrastructure, long range and people who can't charge at home.
I think that is the main disagreement or argument: is this really a proposition where one...
