  3. Re:Not taking efficiency into account on Autonomous Cars Could Be Worse For Carbon Emissions · · Score: 3, Interesting

    - Atrophy of driving skills, i would compare this with people causing accidents because of distractions, lack of ability or just tiredness. will have to wait and see but i think the offset maybe towards self driving cars.
    -Jobs; that is a good one... no idea what will happen, i am assuming until the autonomous sex dolls are released there maybe last resort job available... (horrible)
    -Privacy; well if you own the car you can probably tell it to bugger off, otherwise plug in your VR device and ignore the screens.

    exactly, it will get figured into the resale value, either it is replaced or the cost is removed from the purchase price.

  18. Re:hyperloop without the hyper or loop on The Hyperloop Industrial Complex · · Score: 1

    actually i meant actual typical ownership, looking at reccent numbers (been out of car business for a while) looks like the economic downturn has changed the figure to around 5.6 years... battery lasts longer than that.

  19. Re:another obstacle for HSR in USA? on The Hyperloop Industrial Complex · · Score: 1

    i my mind, HL is just an evolved form of HSR. and unfortunately, chances are it will be implemented exactly in the same manner. we can't do HSR because it costs too much but we will do HL because is costs even more?!! yeah i won't hold my breath. heck we don't even have a decent public transport system within cities.

  20. Re:hyperloop without the hyper or loop on The Hyperloop Industrial Complex · · Score: 1

    considering average purchase of a car in US is 3.5 years... the battery is a moot point when it comes to this replacement issue.

  21. Re:Fear not for your batteries! on The Hyperloop Industrial Complex · · Score: 1

    not trying to troll but your link "Tesla is addressing the battery issue directly, with a buy-back program" doesn't "directly" address the battery cost. it does address the resale value like a conventionally leased car.
