  • So, just so you know, the average EV battery weighs 1000lbs, and some all the way up to 2000lbs in something like the EV hummer. (Unnecessary I know). The cost to have a battery in an EV replaced currently sits around $5000 to $15000 off of warranty. So there are definitely obstacles. Along with letting the general public fry themselves trying to hook up a 400v battery. You’re not dealing with AA batteries. Battery technology is far away from something able to swap out yourself with the ease you may be thinking of.










  • Having a conversation with internet strangers isn’t embarrassing. I stand by my original point which is: are recent amendments calling to bring your grandfather’s ww2 weapons in and get rid of them because they are deemed “assault style” actually reducing crime?

    “On May 1, 2020, the Government of Canada announced a prohibition on more than 1,500 models and variants of assault-style firearms, such as the AR-15. Since then, approximately 500 additional variants of these prohibited firearms have also been prohibited.”

    Is this actually reducing crime post may 1 2020? Sure you really don’t need to own a fully automatic assault rifle so I get that. Is this prohibition effective in reducing gun violence?
