You are underestimating the complete and utter cowardice, apathy, incompetence and spinelessness of the Democrats.
As a newly elected member of my local Democratic Central Committee, I can attest to this. We took over from a bunch of geriatrics who seemed to be in it for the social gatherings and photo-ops with elected leaders, so maybe we can move the ball forward a bit. Or maybe not. It's tough sledding when the leaders at the top are basically Rockefeller Republicans.
It would absolutely have to have a radiator. Given the data we now have on EVs in the wild, it's apparent that thermal management is the most important aspect of Lithium Ion battery longevity. GM, Tesla and BMW all who use liquid cooling for their batteries have fantastic records so far when it comes to battery degradation (or lack thereof) while makers who have opted for air-cooling like Nissan have shown less than stellar records.
Republicans who support it do so for three reasons, 1) a firm belief that God is on their side (stated, probably not truly believed) 2) They are being paid off in the form of campaign contributions (at least) by companies that do not want to have to follow rules. 3) a stupid belief that the earth is sooooooooo big that humans can't really have an effect on it.
Number 2 is the "reason." One and three are rationalizations aimed at distracting the people from the reason.
In the context of electric vehicles, the big benefit here is the huge reduction in energy needed to thermally manage the batteries, which would decrease the range loss associated with cold and hot weather.
As it is now, lithium ion batteries need to be in a pretty narrow temperature window to perform adequately and not degrade too quickly.
The Volt battery pack is 16kwh but only 10.5 kWh is useable. Keeping the charge between 20% and 80% allows the pack to last ten years without degrading significantly.
Batteries can store and discharge about 6-10 times the energy required to create them in their lifetimes.
That number seems very low. Got a source?
I was wondering too and did some searching. It looks like the number is realistic. What I found...
I hope I didn't screw up the math. If I did, please ridicule me and mod me down....
Modern EV batteries which are temperature controlled and charge limited have, so far, shown extremely low degradation over 100,000K EV miles.
The owner of this Volt, who is a member of a Facebook Volt owner group claims to still get the EPA rated 35 miles per charge from his Volt after 120K EV miles...
One charge in a Gen1 Volt is about 10.5 kWh. This means that over 100K EV miles, a Volt battery stores in the neighborhood of 29 MWh of energy.
1/10 of that would by 2.9 MWh
A quick search shows 828MJ per kWh of capacity to produce a lithium ion battery pack. This equates to 3.68 MWh to produce a 16kwh Chevy Volt battery pack.
Given that those Volt battery packs have shown little to no degradation so far, it's safe to say they have quite a bit more useful life to go, so they will probably make it close to 36 MWh of lifetime storage, but they will eventually succumb to the laws of physics though and start to degrade.
Value to the economy is not necessarily value to society.
However, that doesn't seem to be happening, and besides, there's no measurable way to claim that these individuals DO contribute their potential to society in any greater amount than those who are not similarly educated.
Of course there is. You could analyze societal data (like crime rates, school quality and performance, voter participation, healthcare outcomes, etc) among populations with varying education levels and fields.
I was asking if running `chmod [u]+x` on your own file requires a password. It doesn't. I checked on one of our iMacs here at work and confirmed that it works just the same as any other *nix.
Couldn't they just make it all up again? The whole thing is a powergrab by nanny-state socialists.
Yeah, you'd think if it were all made up they could just make it all up again. This just serves to demonstrate the unpresidented level of detail they are taking this climate change simulation simulation thing.

These things are computers; where is the PC of mobile computing?
Nexus and Pixel phones.

But your ageism aside, you'll be pleased to know that it was people in his generation that started the digital revolution.
And? People in my generation started Facebook and Google. That fact doesn't qualify me to make policy regarding internet-related technologies.

Unless they're still on lease, the cars Ford sold last quarter aren't bringing in any money.
Given how auto leases work, that doesn't make any sense.
I don't who will win in the end, but as of now, Tesla's competitors are not sitting around on the sidelines.

With modern hard drives, one pass of zeros is sufficient.
Median income of San Francisco $81,000.
lol.
San Francisco?
No, it's the fucking rust belt that pushed Trump into office you stupid git.
Why don't you look up the median income for Dumbfuckistan, Wisconsin and get back to me.

his is why Trump wins elections.
Nope.
The median income of Trump voters was $70K.

Still, it's no match for T-Mobile and MetroPCS.
No match in what regard? Both the T-Mobile and Sprint networks are still complete shit in many suburban and rural areas.

I personally own a Volt with 32K EV miles and still get the same EV range...

Apparently much less economically illiterate than you.
A free market can't happen. What can or can't happen in a world that will never be has no bearing on real-world policy discussions.
That wasn't my question.
I was asking if running `chmod [u]+x` on your own file requires a password. It doesn't. I checked on one of our iMacs here at work and confirmed that it works just the same as any other *nix.
Someone has to authorize it with the admin password.
So in OSX you need the admin password to do chmod +x on files that you own?
Reagan's entire legacy is fake news.
It was as if the hostage takers are all frightened of what Reagan would do
To the contrary, they knew exactly what Reagan would do. They made a back room deal with Iran during the election - an act of Treason by the gipper.
Reagan should have died of his dementia in federal prison.
