Move to defederate *.ml, hexbear, lemmygrad, etc.
  • The fuck? I was answering why it's better to remove .ml than to argue with them. Just like Nazis, communist authoritarian shits should be stamped out. Both ideologies are posion to humans.

    Your opinion wasn't needed here either but you gave it champ.

  • Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe says too many carmakers are copying Tesla
  • This is complete bullshit. The majority of people who take care of their cars are either wealthy or poor. The poor do it themselves and the wealthy just take it to the dealership.

    I grew up in poverty, all our vehicles were 20+ years old and used. And all had 200k+ miles on them easily. All my poor friends same thing. Hell if someone's car had issues the community would usually step in and the guys who knew how to work on the cars would do the maintenance or fix the issue. Even today now that I've got a well paying career I don't buy new and I still work on my cars.

    Privilege has nothing to do with keeping a car properly maintained. That's just ignorant.

  • Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe says too many carmakers are copying Tesla
  • The majority of vehicles can do 300k+ miles with proper maintenance easily. This isnt anecdotal evidence. This is just a fact. EVs are not doing 300k miles without replacing the batteries at least once, which is not cheap.

  • EVs are going to be even worse if that's the case. That $1200 bill from the mechanic is now going to be 10k for batteries or 5k for a drive motor....or even worse. People really are going to start throwing these away when faced with those types of costs.

  • Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe says too many carmakers are copying Tesla
  • Anyone can make that claim, but reliability comes with real world scenarios, and not some hypothetical numbers. How many EVs do you see on the market with 200k+ miles? Vs how many ICE cars hitting this mark?

    EVs will get there, but they're not to this point yet

  • Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe says too many carmakers are copying Tesla
  • Sure but then you need to average in shit EVs if you're going to lump in shit vehicles. You also need to take into account maintenance. A lot of cars are not properly maintained, so they end up dying before they should, and even then usually a motor rebuild and they're back up and driving.

  • Ugg ..no they are not. Stop this. They're good for certain things, like smaller commutes and cheaper cost per mile, but they are not more robust, not by a long shot, 300k miles not km is normal for an ICE car and then some. I've got multiple cars with 300+k on the clock and I'd drive them across the nation tomorrow.
