This is the only semi-legitimate reason I can get behind. For kids in grade-school.

If anybody outside of grade-school brings this up, I would laugh and ignore.

Time to donate some blood I guess. *sigh

Probably helped lower some risk, too.

Wasn’t there some controversy with who had the first flying machine? There was supposedly some guy in CT that flew an aircraft before the brothers?

EDIT - found this article Three states bicker over ‘first in flight’ claim

Who would want to write new games for a company that can just screw you later?

Hey, that makes sense.

I was seeing “political” and misunderstanding it.

I believe it can work inwardly and be separate from politics. In reality, though, I don’t think it can.

I think the other Christians may have other issues that need resolving first if they believe that this is something that should be stopped or hindered.

Don’t forget pathological problems like forgetfulness, dementia, and Alzheimer’s. Scammers have no qualms with stealing from people with disabilities.

Probably on par with how the other safety stuff in the country is. Bad, not talked about, and actively suppressed if discovered.

Let me help you

Cost more up front: yes, new stuff always does

Range is never real not even close: evidently tesla has been lying about range, but for the most part, if you use an AC in an electric vehicle the batteries die sooner…which is the same with ICE vehicles. Use more energy = deplete faster.

Expensive to replace: yes

Wear out sooner than ice engines? Oh I don’t know about that. There’s no moving parts in an electric car. No oil to change, timing belts, no yearly tightening. There’s still tires, brake fluid, and a host of new issues though. But they do not wear out sooner than ICE vehicles.

Lack of charging stations: yes, a limited problem, but in my area there are tons of them and you also charge at home and work (work is free, so it’s free gas)

Slow to charge? 10-15mins wait is really not a deal breaker, you’re just making some extra time to use the bathroom and get coffee.

Useless on road trips: I personally just rented a full electric and did an 800 mile round trip. It was not that bad.

Range worse in winter: goes along with ‘that’s how batteries work’. Plan your trip.

It’s better for environment to keep older car on the road? Hard NO. Older ICE cars are less efficient with gas, which uses more gas. Getting a newer more efficient ICE car is better for the environment.

Creating a battery is bad for the environment up front, but after that there’s a very small impact over the lifetime usage of that battery.

On the other hand, creating an ICE engine is light on the environment, but through its lifetime pollutes. Way larger impact on the environment than the electric.

I’ve been calling it 10

Tell me how you’d enforce it?

It’s easy enough to wash a generated text and AI text catchers don’t work.

Is it really just an honor system?
