The infrastructure for a lot of rural America is not there to support EVs. The closest charger to me is 100 miles away. There’s a town 30 miles away that got grant money to put in a whole two chargers at a gas station.
I am totally ready to be all in on EVs, but I also would like something faster to charge my car than the few hours I could do off a 50 amp circuit in my house. When the closest Walmart is 30 miles away and closest department store is 100 miles away, a 250 to 300 mile range vehicle definitely brings range anxiety to front of everyone’s mind.
That’s not even mentioning the fact that I just remodels my house and spent the money to put a 50 amp outlet outside by my driveway. Any other house where I live would require a construction crew to be ready for that kind of power requirements.
Yes but we only have this poor state of EV infrastructure because they have dragged their feet. I also live in a rural area that is completely unprepared. Walmart is the only real store in town aside from a small, overpriced grocer. Everything I need is 50 minutes away. It's not going to be completely possible for people in our situation in the near future but if hybrids are on the front burner for the big car corps, ICE will be still be a major source of profit. With EVs in the focus, there will be plenty of hybrids for the foreseeable future.
Folks who say this shit really don't understand how people process information and create trust.
It's not boiling and many folks who read this instead of having a delta to change their behavior will just ignore it because a researcher wanted a quote.
Maybe, if all you posted were Reuters articles. But you seem to just post as much anti-Biden stuff as possible. You’re working overtime for your daddy Trump. Or maybe you work for Vlad?
Do you honestly think Biden is making the argument that China will pay for these tariffs? So far he's been pretty clear that it's about giving American companies an advantage here, not about making China pay.
. . . and that's exactly what Trump was claiming too. My point is that both mainstream parties do the same things with the same justifications while decrying the other.
Subsidized monopolies are the dominant form of monopoly and oligopoly in the USA and Europe. Go look up how many billions in subsidies the USA provides to industries with only 3 dominant players, from fossil fuels to cars to phone companies to internet companies to cable companies to publishers to food conglomerates.
i really don't want anything that further obfuscates the experience of me typing in a word and it showing me pages with that word. and i don't know why i'd want to type a full ass sentence in natural english versus just keywords
Well, they're doing it, and there are (at least, that we know of) 8 US military bases and over 11k US military personnel on Italian soil, they killed civilians with impunity more than one time.
The headline is a bit misleading. The article elaborates some, for example:
In other remarks, Crosetto said that if Russian troops were to occupy Kyiv, it would "inevitably lead to a clash with other nations, which would not accept Russian tanks on their borders."
European nations have been voicing the need of peace from the beginning, it's just that the negotiating third parties can't get Russia to participate in a dialogue. Which leads to desperate stuff like France asking for China to do their part (desperate because they'd need some unlikely deal incentive to flip).
the negotiating third parties can’t get Russia to participate in a dialogue
Did my brain just make shit up or didn't they nearly get to peace very early on^1^? Or are you saying that after Russia participated in a dialogue and Ukraine pulled out, they haven't been willing to participate in any new talks?
I was thinking of that situation as well, and I remember there was some foul play around that plan. The gist might have been that the Russian envoy did appear at the location but wouldn't negotiate. Time will tell if we ever find out the truth.
