When we pay the actual price and not the ad subsidised price.

No. Profit is what’s left after all costs have been accounted for.

Having not read the article and going by the picture…

Is the first test “what do we do about castles?” because I think that can wait.

To turn the light off/on

My sound is always that of a cynic.

Yep. I’d be surprised if it wasn’t more than that in my region. I was the only person I knew with one 5 years ago. Now they are everywhere, and I see 10+ daily in my local streets ignoring mine and my neighbours.

Still, building a European battery industry was always a long shot at best, since China supplies about 80% of the world’s lithium-ion batteries and is home to six of the world’s largest EV battery makers, the report said.

Well that’s a defeatist take. We can’t have a European battery manufacturer because China has all the battery manufacturers. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a need for more.

Probably never. Those 2048 cores are all separate threads. GPUs work with a cluster of cores all following a single thread of execution.

MIMD Vs SIMD.

Not OP, but I doubt that’s what he meant. An APU still has a CPU and a GPU on it as separate things.

Unlike conventional munitions, laser weapons are virtually limitless in terms of ammunition supply,

We have trucks with limitless energy!

It’s their handle.

Might be a little premature. What the new leadership like?

Sure Dragonfucker.

Netherlands Criminal Code

Part V. Serious Offences against Public Order

Section 131

1. Any person who in public, either verbally or in writing or through images, incites another or others to commit any criminal offence or act of violence against the authorities, shall be liable to a term of imprisonment not exceeding five years or a fine of the fourth category.

Thank you for your detailed legal analysis.

It’s still unethical to bar speech that you don’t agree with

Sure, but not if that speech is incitement to violence. Then it’s a legal responsibility to shut it down.

Do UK citizens pay generation + transmission + taxes like we do in the USA?

We pay a standing charge per day. Mine is 40p. So every day my costs are 40p + my per kWh costs. There’s also 5% tax on domestic electricity, but the prices I quoted include this.

No. Electric. My price changes every 30 minutes.

I wrote that message this morning when the price was low. Now at 5pm the price is nearer 40p. Obviously you don’t charge a car at peak prices.

Over the last 4 weeks I’ve averaged 18p/kWh. That’s mainly by making sure I do things like charge the car when it’s cheap.

My rate is very variable, but the figure I used is the off-peak rate on a rate designed for EV owners that gives cheap overnight electricity.

My gas price is 5.9p/kWh which also changes, but day by day. Today is average.

What’s the source for this data because there are aspects I find a bit too surprising. For example Audi and Merc are each selling twice as many BEVs than Kia or Hyundai?

I wasn’t even aware Audi had a pure BEV.

I think I would have preferred to just manifest as a being of energy that could take corporal form at will.

Would have been a lot easier on my mum.

All depends on the maturity of the process. 10% for a new design on a bleeding edge process is possibly viable. You’ll then tweak the design and process to get the yield up.

• 12.5miles per $electricity-dollar (17.1c / kw-hr home charging costs)
• 17.1 miles per $gasoline-dollar ($3.10 per gallon last fillup).

UK figures:

• Right now my electricity price is 6p/kWh, but the wind is rather high today (Storm Darragh). Still there are tariffs that guarantee 7.5p (9¢) overnight for car charging. That gives 24.3 miles per $electricity.
• Petrol is ~£1.40 a litre here ($5.30 per US gallon). So, 9.8 miles per $gasoline.
