Avoiding combat is a lot easier when you’re undetected.

Apps required to charge a vehicle… yeah fuck that noise.

I live in Australia, some of my trips are 1200+ km in a day, add in charging time and it’s simply not realistic for me to use an EV. My longest trip is 2,200km in one go which already takes 25-26 hours including stops.

The lower cost is great but wouldn’t make up for needing to pay for an additional overnight stay. There’s also zero infrastructure for EVs in remote locations.

EVs aren’t quite there for everyone’s use cases. I would have one for around town… if they weren’t privacy nightmares.

For an EV a 600km range with real world driving is impressive, for an ICE vehicle not so much.

Hilux used to be and look like work vehicles, now they look like expensive pieces of shit.

Look at how tall that bonnet is! Fuck visibility I guess.

I’m desperately hoping my country will wake up and join the EU in this initiative, which would make my job immensely easier.

The West needs to start stealing inventions like this from China, to return the favour that has helped propel China so rapidly.

This is a much harder game for Germans.

Ponblopdring!

A bastardised English translation of a native American saying as it turns out.

ARM is more power efficient and so are OLED screens so it wouldn’t shock me if the apple silicon macbooks are significantly lower power draw.

Finding a good 1 to 1 comparison is difficult though so I can’t say for sure.

That is very low power draw for that activity compared to many devices.

Softcore porn is absolutely NSFW for many people.

I’m deciding if I feel sorry for the UK or not, what does BP stand for again?

Bonus question, how many governments were overthrown to ensure BP could profit from other nation’s resources?

It’s anxiety, which really seems to be the root of most of ADHD

I don’t think I’ve heard her called pretty before, she’s certainly not known for her looks (good or bad).

Sauron is a queen ant in this version

The first motorcycle to break 300kph was a Triumph powered Streamliner in 1956 ridden by John Allen with a 650cc parallel twin running on methanol.

A standard 650cc parallel twin from Triumph at the time produced around 34 hp, with race cams, pistons, air intake and exhaust and running methanol that could go as high as maybe 65hp at the crank. Maybe.

A streamliner is more aerodynamic than a ZX6R however the ZX6R puts out 113-116 hp at the wheel… without RAM air. Change the sprockets and it’ll do 300kph, which to be fair isn’t 200mph but freedom units were never my strong suit.

Never seen one, they must be popular

They do have some prototypes but scaling to production for these sort of startups is always the killer.

No way can you make a whole motorcycle with a top speed of 200mph for 140kg

Why not? My ZX6R with a sprocket change will hit 200mph and it weighs 190kg including fuel. Take out the fuel, engine, sprockets, chain and it would be about 140-145kg. Add battery and hub motor.

Seems pretty simple really.
