Nice, well that is good to know indeed. Hell maybe I can work with that if I can find one that isn't invasive to privacy and all. For now I'm sticking to OBD2 if possible haha.

Really? That's pretty damn fast, I'm impressed. Is that all brands or just some? If that's like a "just tesla" thing I'm right out, not buying a car that has spy cameras and can be bricked remotely, and that's before the politics even come into play lol, and that applies to new ice vehicles too.
30min is definitely more doable. Still inconvenient but not like hours inconvenient.
I didn't, the fact that you think people who can afford that stuff are the enemy is your own problem to solve, I even congratulated you on it.
But I'm also informing you (apparently) that not everyone is in the same situation and able to do the same thing. Quite a lot of people in fact. For those people "just do it bro" doesn't really work, you don't have to take that fact personally.
It's not ad hominem, your argument is "people don't sleep outside their house, the house they own, where they can install a charger for their car."
From this we can conclude you are privileged enough to afford a new(ish, at least) car, own a house, and you're a homebody who by your own admission doesn't often sleep outside of said house at a friend's, girlfriend's, relative's, or hotel, thus privileged and a homebody.
Would it be nice if every house had at least two or three car chargers so everyone could charge their cars at the same time and we could all go electric? Sure. Can everyone I know afford to buy a car, a house, and install the chargers? No. Am I going to install one at my house, one at my mom's for when I visit, and one at my girlfriend's apartment? Also no.
Rare for you, not necessarily rare for everyone.
What's more, I have a townhouse with an HOA I hate, not even sure I'm allowed to install a charger out front of my house. And before that when I was renting apartments what am I supposed to run an extension cord from my bedroom down to the parking lot?
Not everyone has the privileged homebody life you may, happy for you though.
Though, if I started at home, drove out of town to where I'm staying for the night, and the woman/friend/family member/hotel I'm sleeping at doesn't have a charger, then I start the day severely depleted and have to go find the nearest charger god knows where and then hang out there for what I assume is at least a couple hours.
With gas, yeah you have to get gas, but gas stations are everywhere and I don't have to wait for the gas to charge, it just dumps in the tank and I'm back moving in under 5min.
No, I have to not paint a target on my back until I get enough to perform a coup. One day when you are old enough to be employed you may understand.
He doesn't really know that much about it tbh, he's a little removed from the situation. They're also admittedly not all easy to replace.
Because real life requires more tact than that.
I could snitch on them to the owner for every little thing, but if it isn't bad enough to get them fired outright, they know it was me who got them chewed out and I've painted a target on my back. More tact is necessary.


No u.
