God Emperor of Mastodon (new account)

@michal@sapka.pl

This is my new, future account. While most interaction still happen on the bsd.cafe one, I aim to migrate fully here.

I am posting mostly culture, emacs, bsd and anti-ai based ramblings. I don't curse and I try not bait people into pointless anger rages.

I am a nerd (or dork? I don't know), a software engineer and I started to hate what technology has bacame.

Because the car has a huge battery and making batteries is extremely destructive, I think.

    @michal I get that. What I’m asking is, the battery is produced only once, so why would the payoff distance be a _yearly_ number?

    The only way I can make it make sense, is if they’re assuming a car will be off the road after X years, so they’re dividing the payoff distance by X and calling it a yearly amount.

    It seems weird to me because car lifetimes are commonly measured in distance driven rather than years.

    Is that clearer?

      I think it's easier to think about? It's a unit I've seen before, and it seems widely used (https://carbone4.com/en/articles/analysis-faq-electric-vehicles)

        @michal this gives an absolute number of km driven, see highlighted section
