Urgh, the ones that say “well my ice car can do 700 miles on a tank so until EV can do that I’m not doing it” annoy the hell out of me.

I know damn well they’re never driven that far without stopping at least once

I immediately went looking on temu :)

I don’t the poster meant to happen!

I agree, it’s a step beyond the little sticker on the back of the car.

I’d do the same if I had one but pedoguygate switched me off the brand and it’s never been the direction that I wanted to see EVs go (look I have a button that makes the car/range go down really fast. I also don’t think talk of range without reference to battery size is helpful)

Just started using my 2006 SanDisk equivelant of this, I feel attacked lol

Range doesn’t capture the concept of efficiency.that Op was getting at

It needs defining as kw per 100km or miles per kw, but then neither can be summed in a single word

Also, surely this device is no different to a phone in that neither is meant to be listening indiscriminately. There’s a chance a 9 year old has a phone nowadays I’d imagine

I think they mean morally on the part of the student

In the UK, the take up of smart meters for electric and gas has been slow due go concerns that this would enable companies to do the same.

It’s not a bad argument (haven’t paid, turn it off) but then if you’re struggling financially is it better not to be allowed to rack up further debt anyway?
