Rivian is an expensive failure. 😂 They’re going to steal VW 's money, whatever is invested, and they’re going to spend it all before VW can get it back. So…they’re going to lose at least $1B.

Grayjay!! 🙌🏻

Sounds like a skill issue. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nice!!

He’s 21 years old & also he’s gotten a lot of fame. We can’t expect lots of great wisdom from him.

Joe Rogan debacle?

This is actually super great timing. I’m guessing by safer, they mean, won’t blow your nuts off. 🤭 Might be a good community for us, too.

This is a valid criticism that we talk about…working through supply, using supply, and becoming familiar with it is actually the ideal we should all strive for. 🙂 Idk about any bike, electric or not, that can withstand hard use several times/day for decades. (o_O) But product design is getting better all the time!

Oh I was making a joke, like you posted an ‘or’ comment & I replied Yes like it will do both. 😂 Good bike, blows your balls off.

I’ve been looking at Super73 for years as a CLASSIC styling, really handsome ebike. YouTube search for things like Survival ebike, ebike for preppers. Because you’ll tap into a whole community of people that want good & tough ebikes, not flimsy crap, ebikes that should be good relatively long-term. I trust Canadian Prepper; this video is a little older but information & considerations tend to be relevant years later.

I saw another prepper cheaping it with $700-800 ebikes, if I find it I’ll post name & link…

Anyway jokes aside I hope that helps. Idk your situation but I’d almost be tempted to wait just a few more years; pandemic/oil prices have pushed so many ebikes into the wild & that has brought about soooooo much real-world testing & consumer feedback. I’m thinking the ebikes just a few years from now will be so much better, and possibly for cheaper or the same price.

Yes

Dickipedia.

And I’ll just hold my breath until it comes.

Ah that’s fair enough, I guess. I see no expandable storage, I do not buy, I write them off.

Curved screens are gross!

…but can we trust Motorola anymore? They haven’t put out a good smartphone since the original Razr line & the first Androids. Haven’t been relevant in the phone world since.

…this is how people outside the industry learn what’s going on, possible explanations for it. 🤨 Otherwise everybody’s just perpetually in the dark.

Also, he didn’t say anything bad about UPS, just a bad part of bad software.

Reading the article, it actually does look pretty bad. Filter media containing asbestos, used to be make chlorine. Brake pads, that are made to wear away into dust, asbestos dust??

I agree with twinkle, technically it’s all about the proper application, but my god. Probably shouldn’t put it in brake pads, I know asbestos is a wonder material, but the whole issue is creating airborne dust.

Fossil fuels can’t be banned overnight; I am pro-renewables, but we’re just not there for freight/ag/rural/heavy industry. We can probably start getting enough city people on electric. The tech will continue to get better. Gotta walk before you can run.

Someone allegedly almost did just that, but spared his life.
