We have this in Canada too. I see them littered all over the place. Its not terribly effective.

I own an EV. Whats to ‘crawl back to’? The constant maintenance costs? The expensive fuel? The shittier driving experience? The worse noise and vibration?

Nah, bruh. Im good. I will never go back to ICE.

How mildly opinionated of you.

I always said tomato and basil are the basis of Italian cooking because if all else dies, they will always survive.

I wasnt young when it came out. Joke’s on you.

Is this another landline poll? Those are notoriously and increasingly useless.

Ah, I must have been thinking renewables was the majority. I used to live there but its been a while!

Maine is primarily hydro so half by wind is an odd goal for that state. Boosting wind production is good and theres lots of it there, but its not like theyre burning mostly coal or anything.

Im glad you pointed out the algorithm thing. Seems like people get fed up with social media platforms like X(?) and Reddit and then come to alternatives demanding the same features that, at least in part, led to them being fed up in the first place.

I actually disagree with OPs assertion that these federated platforms are ‘almost as good’. Theyre better. More features doesnt mean a better platform and in my opinion often makes them worse.

Ok

Awesome! They look great. Ours got eaten by the dreaded potato beetle last year so we’re taking a few years off from growing them.

Oh yeah…yeah yeah yeah…I know some of these words!

New England has a decently strong Acadian presence. But Acadians dont typically think of themselves as French, per se. They think of themselves as Acadian. The French influence is recognized of course, but its a different way of looking at ancestry.

Can confirm. I had my CC skimmed at a gas pump before I bought my EV.

The thing is, I have only used public chargers maybe 10 times total. 99% of the time I plug it in at home where I know no one is gonna steal my CC number.
