Never before have a I hoped that a Wikipedia article is part of an elaborate joke.

What do you delete yourself with in the desert? A water bottle?

To add to that, Harry Potter is the worst example to use here. There is no extra billion that JK Rowling needs to allow her to spend time writing more books.

Copyright was meant to encourage authors to invest in their work in the same way that patents do. If you were going to argue about the issue of lifting content from books, you should be using books that need the protection of copyright, not ones that don’t.

Tbf that would be two dams and they did use the plural of dams, technically ‘dams’ could be a pumped storage facility.

By my very very very rough calculations, you could build a large scale solar farm with 3x power output and have enough money left over to build a 33GWh battery. That would more than cover a continuous supply of 1GW.

Hello, you called?

The consumer hardware store in Australia sells a full range of both. Takes up a lot of space. The metric nuts & bolts are definitely cheaper than the imperial ones though.

It’s interesting to see that Australia and New Zealand did just fine with metrification around the same time. Yet somehow, the UK and US absolutely bungled it and Canada has had to wait for generational change.

I think you mean that all of your roads are laid out in a 1.609km grid.

The article says they’re going to build 30,000 new chargers with two different charging standards. That’s not settling, that’s hedging.

In this case you’d be contacting yourself though.

I guess the US is just okay with Tesla having a monopoly on EVs?

What is stopping Elon Musk having a fallout with an another car company in the future, pulling the licensing deal for the charging port and stopping their ability to produce cars?

Are all other cars in the US doomed to be 2nd tier? Why would Tesla share improvements to charging rate when it could use new versions of the charging system to sell Teslas?

How is it okay for there to be one price for electricity for Tesla owners and a higher price for non-Tesla owners?

That definitely seemed the like the most jank part of their production line. You’d hope they come up with a fix for that. I wouldn’t be surprised if a significant portion of their sales are DIY, so getting that right has to be pretty important.

Honestly, I’m impressed they’re selling to Australia.
