    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    They’ve got a Guinness world record guy with them, I’m not sure what record they’re going for but it has to do with winter travel. That’s presumably why they appear to be driving all night.

    A Hunting Thread- A Swerve from The Global Warming Thread

    3 stars, but as far as I can tell, anyone who has shopped there gave them 5. Chesher's Outdoor Store https://maps.app.goo.gl/k6cJao3wKUgGjkki8?g_st=ic

    A Hunting Thread- A Swerve from The Global Warming Thread

    I was looking at reviews for one of the hunting stores here, at first glance it looked terrible, then I started reading and realized that it was 50% 5 star from their customers and 50% 1 star from Karen bitching that hunting is bad.

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    I said, or perhaps meant, that it’s ridiculous that people complain about the price of gas to drive their enormous vehicles by themselves to downtown. I get that for some people these vehicles are utilitarian, but others want to eat their cake and have it too. You can buy whatever monstrosity...

    Sure there’s some outliers but works fine for the vast majority, these guys drove a Model 3 across Canada in Feb to show that. https://driveteslacanada.ca/news/charge-across-canada-live-tracker-updates/

    For most EVs the charging locations are integrated with the navigation so the car does this planning for you, and some of them preheat the battery when it knows you’re going there to charge. For me, the kids need to stop more frequently and for longer than what’s required to charge, YMMV. Works...

    They have this new device that you can attach to many other vehicles to accomplish these tasks. I get it if you’re going to Home Depot daily, but most people aren’t doing that. https://canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/stirling-galvalume-plus-utility-trailer-5-ft-x-7-ft-0408093p.html

    That’s not what it looks like based on even the slightest bit of research. It’s absurd that you’re feigning concern about mining in a different place but you’re OK with magnitudes more of the same in your own backyard...

    https://electrek.co/2022/04/22/tesla-using-cobalt-free-lfp-batteries-in-half-new-cars-produced/ I still don’t see why you’re OK with strip-mining in Alberta but not some other place that you’ve never heard of.

    Canada continues to rank first in the G7 for the share of working-age people (aged 25 to 64) with a college or university credential

    That’s a weird statistic. The average loan recipient is female. Is that like 51% of them are female? That would be consistent with the population…

    I see. Well maybe I can interest you in one of these EVs. https://scootersdirect.ca/collections/fortress-mobility-scooters/products/fortress-1700-dt-ta-4-wheel?variant=39311644164177&gclid=Cj0KCQiAm5ycBhCXARIsAPldzoVgt4dI_PGWyegDh6Ne6dOJSYg-m_toi9yUwzFGHn00QtC75Op5ErkaAnrrEALw_wcB

    I guess that would be useful if you wanted to take your mining dump truck home at night. Alternatively, if you live at the bottom of the hill you could take some rocks home and dump them on the lawn, decorative rocks are a thing.

    🙄 here’s the degradation history of every Tesla ever built, sorry it’s 18 months old and stops at 200,000 miles, luckily that’s as far as you want. https://electrek.co/2020/06/12/tesla-data-battery-degradation-limited-mileage-packs-equal/

    This one’s neat, they say it never needs to be charged… it’s taking the payload downhill and going uphill when it’s empty. Otherwise physics and stuff… law of conservation of energy...

    Everyone who owns a Kenworth thinks that Peterbuilt is Junk, I assume the opposite is also true.

    I don’t understand your argument. You’re concerned about “strip mining” in other countries, that isn’t actually taking place, but you’re OK with strip mining in Alberta because… here’s where I’m lost, it seems inconsistent.

    Again, lithium comes from salt brine, the open pit mine popular on social media that purports to be an “open pit lithium mine” is actually a copper mine. I don’t know what you’re smoking but nobody is trying to get rid of internal combustion engines just to ‘stick it to the little guy’...
