Wonder what the price on these will be.
Also, should we change the name of this sublemmy from “electric vehicles” to “articles from electrek.com” ?
Looks pretty solid. I do feel it needs an accent color, like a pop of mechanicum red stripes or one or two armor panels. Something to pull it out of monochrome.
Car -sized internal combustion engines are wildly inefficient. Car-sized electric motors are wildly efficient.
I use an old Britta filter with some cheese cloth to filter my old IPA. Pour in the old nasty stuff, let it sit for a day, pretty clean reusable IPA comes out the other end.

I almost never have to mess with it once I got it running. Very occasionally I have to turn off blocking for a minute to access a website that is being served by an ad server, but this is easy. There is a web interface that you can use on your phone web browser with an option to pause blocking for 30 seconds or 5 minutes.
It has never broken or had a bad update or something and blocked my whole Internet. Good reliable set up and forget software. Been running it for years.
We’re not voting for them because they’re good, we’re voting for them because they aren’t the worst human on earth.
Another reason for pi-hole! The spot where my tv shows ads is just an empty box. Very satisfying.
Mom would be proud.
Not sure how much sway the FTC will have in Canada.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Y’all motherfuckers never handled a metal other than stainless steel before. Can’t wait to be vindicated when someone tells this dude to clean it with vinegar and see what happens.
So what do you think this is, if not natural patina? Unnatural patina? Olympic person secretly rubbing black stuff on their medal and posting it on Instagram for views? Do you think the Olympic committee intentionally purchased medals plated in something other than brass that would patina faster? Or do you think it’s not brass and some other metal that oxidizes at a faster rate? I think it would take more effort to create a medal that patinas at a faster rate than it would to just create a medal plated in plain old brass or bronze.
Brass left alone in a clean environment will oxidize very slowly, because it’s just in contact with oxygen and electrolytes from the air. Metal oxidizes much faster in certain conditions, such as when it is regularly exposed to large amounts of oxygen and electrolytes, such as those found water and acid. Some examples of things that oxidize metals faster include being in regular contact with body oils, salty sweat, or chemicals like sunscreen or body lotion. Do you think any of these substances may have gotten on a medal being worn by an athlete in the summer for a week?
Go get a piece of brass siding from the hardware store. Don’t put any sealant on it. Wear it around your neck for a week and see what happens to it.
“you’re what’s wrong with the Internet”
Proceeds to do the stupid thing making the Internet bad
US skateboarder learns about oxidization for the first time.
Downvoters: Google brass patina and tell me what that looks like. Olympic “bronze” medals are made of brass. Brass oxidizes. This is oxidization. It’s not an inferior product or a hallmark of the cheapness if Olympics, it’s a thing that happens to some metals and metal alloys.
You’re right, another Trump presidency would be way better for black Americans.
OP, what information do you believe this map conveys?
Yes but you see, 2,000 years ago God told some random dudes to write a book that says almost nothing about abortion, which of course means today that abortion is very very bad and we should never do it. It’s important that we write our laws keeping in mind what God told these guys 2,000 years ago, even though the book they wrote doesn’t actually say abortion is wrong.
Mom, can we stop for S&M jump chaplain on the way home?
