If anyone hates on this haircut at least it’ll be easy to defend.

Obviously not universally true for all people, but a significant portion.

And the fascist side of it appeals most to the uneducated people.

*In Canada…

I think that’s part of the reason they tend to fail in other areas: it’s just not important enough to them except for the data it generates for thier ads.

Maybe buying booze on uber eats?

There’s often cars parked on the side of the road on highways in NZ… Its also incredibly useful in stop and go traffic and sometimes I’m too lazy to turn it off after the traffic ends, until it randomly brakes for a parked car 😅

Ah true, yeah I test drove a polestar and a Hyundai ioniq 5 before deciding to go with the bmw and they both worked a lot better, but were also way more expensive since they were new and the bmw was second hand 😅

Unfortunately there weren’t any second hand phev volvos available in my area at the time.

Or bring a gun to work, that’s much less likely though so I wouldn’t worry about it.

Diet and exercise make a difference too. Most Americans eat a lot more calorific food and walk/cycle a lot less.

And the post length limit on Bluesky is 300 characters (more precisely, 300 Unicode Grapheme Clusters).

If it was stored in a warehouse instead of a forest maybe it wouldn’t need to be incinerated…

Duno about newer cars, but in a 2017 model bmw it tends to brake for parked cars quite often when using radar cruise control…

There really shouldn’t need to be a 12V battery at all

I think it’s mainly there just to be able to control the circuit that cuts power to the high voltage battery off while the car is parked for safety reasons.

(“Now” never happens because the moment your brain registers that “now” has happened, it’s already “then”)

If a tree falls in the forest…

Since this meme was created. But only for a short moment.

Probably would still need the 12V battery to have enough charge to close the connection to the high voltage battery that would power the step down converter.

But yeah it seems dumb to me that most EVs don’t keep the 12V battery topped up from the high voltage battery somehow while the car is parked, but I’m not an electrical engineer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

TFW the can has sharp edges.
