    Ship hit the span

    Right, I thought it came out of Curtis Bay as well. But the tracking showing it coming out of Dundalk. Camera angles I guess.

    Ship hit the span

    speed was climbing until that waypoint(red on picture) then off-course. But apparently still managed to slow down quite a bit. This is going to affect my commute.

    Got a laugh in traffic this morning.

    not only possible, but quite likely. I expect majority(although I doubt it's 75+%) of drivers to be above average.

    Toyota is right about EVs after all...

    oh, I 100% agree. Hence it is not a feasible option at the moment. This can(I'm in no way implying that it actually will) change sometime in the future

    ok. Got it. Lead Acid is probably not what I would want to be using either.

    Genuinely curious. What(and where) is your setup and why do you hate it?

    Toyota is right about EVs after all...

    you should be right, but "economies of scale" is not how energy is now managed. At least not in my state. Political goals have a lot to do with costs than anything else. And I'm beginning to get tired of this constantly adjusting my cost. "Completely disconnected" is probably too much, but...

    Toyota is right about EVs after all...

    Personally, my ideal solution is to completely be disconnected from power grid. Solar, batteries, EVs, ground loop, propane for cooking and really cold days and backup generator, 1 gas car for long trips and backup. I can't do this now for various reasons. Maybe I will never be able to...

    I'm totally with you on how easy it is to get most people to charge at best time. That's non issue really. I think @SoonerAviator point was that in past 10 years efficiency of devices went up significantly. That, as your graph showed, offset the increased number of devices(including EVs)...

    You are correct. But also not giving complete data. Tesla 2023 revenue is up 19% over 2022. But its Q4 2023 is up only 3.5% over Q4 2022. This says to me that Q4 was a lot worse than rest of the year. These numbers were below expectations btw They had to lower their prices to keep selling cars...

    Here’s an anecdote about Tesla. A friend just updated from model 3 to model Y late last year. Before they dropped price. Walked in and got one at discount. New. He charges that thing at work for free and often drives there to leave it on charger and comes home because- his words - it’s...
