Tell me more about the US government requiring their soldiers to rape pre-teen girls then.

Or, you know, they really aren’t the same.

I’m in Sweden. The idea that the US is somehow more of a danger to us than Russia is laughable.

Let’s.

Heard about what Russia has been doing in the occupied parts of Ukraine?

“basically”

You’ll be surprised if you actually challenge your convictions.

There is an extremely arbitrary distinction made between the USA and Russia.

Your world view seems to be highly influenced by propaganda. It’s very easy to draw a distinction between these two countries. Let me start with an easy one:

Russia is a dictatorship, the US is a democracy.

Many of Yandex’s employees resigned in protest, accusing the company of serving as a tool of Kremlin propaganda and actively concealing information about the war.

IOCX has a noticeable increase in new user signups since a day or two back.

If you were just selfhosting services for you and your family, would really browsers be flagging your site?

Yeah, the new platform is way better - one of the reasons we held on to the Tesla until the ID.7 was available.

Ahh then I might know where it comes from. People who use Tesla’s Sentry mode don’t realize that it uses up several percent per night. Now, it does turn off automatically when the battery is at 20% but I know people who parked at an airport and didn’t have charge enough to get home when they got back because of this.

I haven’t owned it through winter (no ID.7 owner has tbh) but I don’t expect that to be an issue. It will only heat the battery if you schedule departure times.

I’ve noticed no battery drain with the car parked otherwise.

I have a VW ID.7 and it does - but I also believe that’s the first model on their “new platform”.

Which EV do you have where this is an issue? The ones I’ve had pre-heat the battery to optimal charging temperatures.

Harder to start? That sounds extremely weird - it’s electric :D I’ve never had such issues (Sweden, on my second EV) while ignition when really cold has always been problematic with my gas/diesel cars.

Range goes down, yes. That’s true also for gas/diesel cars, but when the range is good enough we tend not to notice/care. My previous EV (Tesla Model 3 SR+) had lousy range both summer and winter (Tesla lies about their range) but in the winter it was indeed painful.

The current one (VW ID.7) has about double the range and also performs as stated. I expect a 20% drop in range in the winter and that’s just fine.

It’s no different in Sweden. While I’m on my second EV and will never go back I can’t motivate it for people who live in apartments. To be able to use an EV effectively you absolutely have to have your own charger to connect it to while home, and very few apartments have that possibility.

Norway has way more incentives compared to us, which is somewhat unusual between us Nordic countries.

Very well. It’s much more enjoyable to own an electric vehicle in colder climates than a gas/diesel powered one actually, since you can let it heat up and defrost completely before going anywhere.

Exactly like humans.

Tenacity is a thing.

Just don’t make a new install with Dendrite - it’s not really supported anymore. And no automated automation for us who do have Dendrite servers …

Synapse if you plan to go large, otherwise Conduit, would be my recommendation.
