Major problem with EVs:>gasoline tanker trucks have a legal max limit>EV semis are heavier>this means EV semis will have to carry less gasoline>when everyone switches to EVs, more trips will have to be made to transport the same amount of gasolineHas anyone thought about this? It will significantly increase gas prices.
If only there were an effective way to transfer energy by wire.
>>2082990Silly anon, wire pipelines can only transfer drops of gasoline at a time.
>>2082990>>2083015we should replace all electric wires with thin hoses that carry gasoline
americans seriously unironically itt stumbling upon the concepts of "pipes" and "wires" after around a century of having no contact with any scientific or engineering practices
>>2083149pipes are what you smoke weed out of bro of course we know what they are lmao
>>2083149 #To be fair the trucks are important for fine grained distribution, they are the spokes to the hubs of pipelinesIn general terms our failure as a civilization to reduce our resource wastage and allocate our efforts not for the sake of billionaire and corporate parasites will lead to a physical limit being imposed on us by reality where greed and brainpess capitalist ideology and the indolent arrogance of political "leaders" have sought to ignore the physical constraints of our planet and trajectory.The time to have averted significantly worse outcomes for the billions of us on this planet have passed, it was a few precious decades of opportunity.I hope hell exists, I will torture, rape and murder bush senior and everyone like him there for eternity.
>>2083149The US has tons of pipelines. Most people simply never have cause to think about them unless one ruptures.
>>2082927"when everyone switches to EVs", well then not as much gasoline will be needed, will it?
>>2082927What is crazy is people think switching to evs is the answer knowing that the you need more batteries due to less energy. So now when we need to replace our ev batteries, we have to do this more often and need more ev semis to haul fully charged batteries. This is why hydrogen is the future. More hydrogen = less weight since it has negative weight = transporting more hydrogen in each semi.
>>2083242Hydrogen is just a trick in order to have the same dependency on centralized fuel generation and a way to tax specifically vehicles. Electric based transportation can't be easily taxed, and you can generate energy through a variety of means. It breaks the monopoly.
