Within Wi-Fi range?

I didn’t know that. Perhaps I need to research a little more before commenting.

Thanks!

I want to be able to swap out parts, or repair the laptop when something breaks. For that it seems like Framework would be the best.
I’ve been trying to convince my partner that we need to buy one. My only problem is that I have a perfectly good desktop, and don’t need a laptop.

There was a movie made about it.

I have been using my bike for most short trips.
I’ve even ridden my bike into the city, then taken a train most of the way home when I realised I’m not as fit as I thought I was.

I’ve actually solved most of my travel issues by staying home and deciding that I don’t actually need to travel. This works less well when the purpose of travel is to get food.

The numbers I’ve used are only for the refining of the fuel. This video by Mark Linthicum (hosted on the Fully Charged channel) gives an amazing amount of information on the topic.

EV’s are so much more efficient that even running from electricity produced by coal, they are significantly better than ICE (internal combustion engine) cars. Just the electricity used to refine enough fuel to drive 100mi would be enough to drive an average EV more than 60mi. (This detail gets conveniently left out when comparing ICE cars to EVs).

We still need to decarbonise the grid, and as that happens, all electric cars (regardless of age) will become less polluting too. Having an unclean grid is not an excuse to keep using ICE vehicles.

I have an electric car because I refuse to pay any more money to fossil fuel companies but still need to drive. I use public transport where possible, but many trips just aren’t viable.

It takes me 30 minutes to walk to the nearest shopping centre, but 2 hours to get there by public transport, or 5 minutes by car.

As an average citizen, I don’t have the means to build or fund new railway lines. I am, however, lucky enough to be able to refuse to drive fossil fueled vehicles and still survive.

No, nothing visible.

Power prices fluctuate. If more power is needed than is supplied, prices will go up until either someone reduces their demand, or someone generates more power.

Some companies are deliberately waiting for extra high prices before they start delivering more power, and now they are doing the same with batteries.

They could be supplying the power much earlier and cheaper with batteries (unlike peaker plants that cost a lot to operate), but they just decided not to.

Batteries are not the problem, it’s the companies who are using them for profit instead of for grid stability.
