It looks like I got my info mixed up, thank you for the correction.

Just for reference a Fiat 500 is roughly 9.75 feet long.

Where are all those cops with the punisher logo on their vests when you need them. I’m starting to think they don’t actually read punisher comics at all lol.

Any debloating you do will probably be reversed by updates eventually. Have you considered installing Linux on their computer as well assuming they use it for just web browsing. Maybe just get them something that runs ChromeOS even 🤷🏻

Everybody knows Wendell is the real tech God.

Yes, I’m waiting for the investigation Linus paid for.

If your just a Linus fanboy I guess there’s no point in continuing this conversation. I wish you the best of luck on life though 🖖

You’re waiting for an investigation that the accused party paid for?

He came over to my corner and started BERATING HER. Calling her insane, mentally ill, an attention seeker, and just digging into this poor woman who had felt wronged by him.

You really think Linus would admit to doing this if the investigation he paid for and controls said he did do it? That sounds incredibly naive to me.

What evidence would you need?

An investigation by who?

What evidence do you need?

What evidence would you need to believe her? At least one other former staff member (Colin) said

@suuuoppp’s (Madison) posts today in are line with what I remember hearing back when we were colleagues, and it takes mad huevos to post that.

Other former LMG employees like Maxine at the very least liked the tweets where she claimed these things.

Linus held a staff meeting about how to handle HR related issues right after Madison quit. Even though he responded to her accusations by saying her had no idea this was going on.

And if that’s not good enough for you, again what evidence do you need to believe her?

1. As far as I know, no legal charges where made or will be made. So the only investigation will be the one he himself paid for and he doesn’t have enough credibility for my to believe him even if he said everything was false.
2. What what evidence would you personally need to believe that Madison isn’t just making it up?

It did not matter if I spoke to someone with evidence of an abuse of power, or inappropriate workplace behavior, it was considered tattle taling.

I was actually called a tattle tale

I was told I was bossy, when I was trying to be assertive. (like I was asked to do)

I was told I was arguing, when I was trying to discuss my point of view.

I was told to “calm my tits”, “stop being such a bitch”, and other comments to similar effects.

Sounds like he runs a great company.

The sexual harassment stuff didn’t help either.

Maybe they should do something about the out of control rent prices lol

Depends on which ones you buy and when.

How much does it cost to replace an EV battery on average?

It’s very easy to look at 10+ year old batteries and extrapolate.

There aren’t a ton of 10+ year old EVs is my problem. 10 years ago EV were still a pretty niche thing. If you have that kind of info I’d love to take a look though.

That’s what we call a “loaded question”. There’s all kinds of companies.

I definitely wouldn’t call that a loaded question. How do you figure that it is?

That’s still at max, 6 years of data. Am I reading that right? But, to be fair there’s no indication of a dramatic drop off, at worst that data is incomplete.

I wouldn’t be worried about buying a brand new EVs. My problem is that I exclusively buy 3-5 year old cars because that’s the most cost effective way to buy them. So if I bought a 5 year old EV and owned it for another 5 years it’s a 10 year old EV which is the very edge of the data is be able to find. That kind of unknown is a bit unsettling along with some other personal use case issues.

Thank you for the info though.

Last I checked an engine and transmission rebuild combined cost less than replacing just the batteries on an EV. An ICE might need a rebuild every 20+ years but, we don’t even have 20 years of EV data to look at to compare.

No, I don’t follow EVs super close. What brands allow this? What third party batteries can I buy and how much do they cost and how do they compare to OEM batteries?

1. I’m wary of any data coming from Tesla themselves.
2. That’s kind of comparing apples and oranges. Also an engine rebuild is also considerably cheaper than battery replacements.
3. That link sounds more theory than reality. A lot of “if” and “may” used in that article.
4. 100,000 miles over ten years isn’t much. Reaching that amount of miles is considered less than the minimum for modern cars. And it’s only one example, I’ve seen examples of the exact opposite.
5. How old and how many miles did the EVs you’ve owned have when you sold them?

There’s not a ton of data on older EVs so it’s kind of hard get a clear picture on their longevity. I know they’re constantly improving and I’ll eventually get one, just not today 🤷🏻.

I think the cost to replace the battery is an issue.

How much are SpaceX expenses though? Revenue is different from Net Profit.
