For a lot of folks, being a bit more anxious all the time or missing out on a good thing is worth not being victimized. I don’t know if people are actually less likely to be victimized but I think plenty feel that it helps.

I’m a big fan of the voyager pulsar map. I haven’t got it yet but could come in handy if I get lost

For the average consumer most EVs are too expensive. The batteries probably aren’t going to get much cheaper due to the rarity and expense of lithium. Finding a better battery tech could make the whole idea of mass electric car ownership make sense. I do wish people would stop caring about the range issue so much tho. Just charge the battery every night and you’ll almost never need more then 80 miles of range

I hope we drop the idea of mass car ownership tho. Effective mass public transit and micro mobility seems like a much safer and more efficient direction to go

Doubtful this will plan out tho. These articles are basically just corporate press releases. A couple of these battery techs might pan out and work at scale
