Of course he does. But a standard house power connection does not deliver the amount of power you need to charge a car.

So you need to build a charging pole at your house if you want to charge ar home. Which is another investment.

And if you are in a somewhat remote area and there are not many charging poles around you, you are also very limited in how far and how fast you can travel.

So there really is no point investing in a charging pole and an EV car if the car is not capable of doing to the same things that a gas car can do.

EDIT: thanks for the responses. I’m still not convinced that electric is a good option for me, but some issues seem to be fixed or not as bad as I thought.

Still, within my price range it will take a while before I can pay one.

Pretty weird that you have to pay anything at all. In my country my boss would not be happy, but he cannot make me pay for that.

First I was like wow, then I started to count how many zero’s there came afterwards. Ouch that hurts.

Shoot for getting about 70% right. That is about where the rest of the world ends up too. And the world is still turning. No need to drive yourself nuts doing the impossible.

Funny. I don’t have a creditcard and I don’t want one. That is the only reason I sometimes, maybe once or twice a year I use PayPal.

I wish them good luck building a profile on 2 purchases. Also, I’m in the EU and I suspect this will not be legal here.

I also cannot believe somebody thought it would be a great idea to introduce even more tracking and ads. Don’t they understand they are driving away customers?

I symphatize with that, but it would seem they are definitely not going to last until they are successful. I respect that you work towards renewable energy, but they won’t lose one night of sleep if they have to fire you down the road.

Take care of yourself, good luck.

Edit: I just remembered from another thread. Somebody shared a gem about hoping: Hope in one hand, shit in the other and see which one gets filled first.

Not to say hope is bad, but I also believe in being realistic about things.

Dude, just start looking. Don’t wait for somebody else to leave, be that person.

If somebody else leaves, your workload will increase even more while you try to find a new job. Just take the initiative. And next time, be quicker about it too. Protect yourself.

That is actually pretty funny.

I understand why you ask this question, but really the fastest way to learn is to decide what you want the computer to do and start looking for that.

One thing will lead to another and you’ll learn lots of things that way, while you’re immediately using it.

Tutorials and courses can work, but usually it works best if you use whatever you are learning.

So come up with an idea for a program, and start building. There will be mistakes, anger, frustration and cursing involved, but you will learn a lot.

First at the lower level, and later on you will probably start wondering how to structure it all. And then you’ll learn about that too.

My point? Just dive in, fall on your face a couple of times and you’ll learn a lot in a short time.

Naked model? Cooking meth? Sex worker?

To the point where you hear a loud bang and some damage appears here or there.

Was lost on the airfield trying to pick up some friends. Borrowed a van, so it wasn’t my car, I was lost and I was tired.

Then I fucked up and made a U-turn without looking and hit another car on the side. Nobody got hurt, but there was some damage.

Exchanged information and we each went on our way. Learned a valuable lesson that day.

That was an interesting read, thanks!

Their job is to represent their clients interest and make sure they get a fair trial. There’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, it is one of the most important jobs for a justice system. I for one do not want to be charged for a crime I did not commit, and a good lawyer will turn that charge to shreds.

Of course they sometimes seem like the bad guys when defending rough criminals but those have the right to a correct and fair process too.

The benefit: you no longer have to pay staff or rent for that studio. Take the IP’s, what else of value is there really? The rest is just a burden.

Most of them are not bought to ensure their future or as an investment. They are bought to take the IP and eliminate a competitor or threat.

It’s sad, but that’s the problem with big companies with huge wallets. They’ll push people out of a job and won’t loose any sleep over it either.

At least that is what I think.

It’s a gift. If they don’t like it I hope they find a good destination for it. Maybe somebody else will be happy with it.

I give it away, and then I don’t really care anymore, unless the gift was expensive and specifically asked for.

I don’t waste my time by being offended about things that I have no control over. I’ve added my positive contribution to the situation, do with it what you want.

It could help with long term to define sub goals.

For example, about what amount of savings you want to have by which date, or set a date when you want to have a clear concise description of what kind of house and location you are looking for.

At another date you want to be familiar with all the things that involve buying a house, the documents and what not.

By defining sub goals you keep things real and are able to measure your position towards your goal.

It’s a valid strategy for dealing with complex and long term stuff.

Wrap it up folks, we’re done here.

A good employer would listen to your complaint. Then talk to the other guy. But he will not get fired over one incident.

It may get added to his personal file. If the list of complaints gets to big, some training may follow.

In my country it is very difficult to fire somebody for something like this. Only after repeated incidents, extra training and multiple chances to improve over a longer period of time would they stand a chance.

That does however require other people to report those incidents. So go ahead and report it because it clearly makes you very uncomfortable and it is very unprofessional from the other guy.

Not sure, but if the windshield shattered there’s probably damage to other parts too. If the bike had side farings those would probably crack too and need to be replaced. If not, the engine could have touched the ground, and replacing once of the sides of your engine isn’t cheap either.

The handlebars could be damaged, the forks could be out of whack. Everything needs to be checked to make sure it’s still safe to drive.

800 dollar may not be the damage that was there, but if you take into account the hours the mechanic has to spent checking and fixing the bike, the bill adds up quickly.

Source: dropped my bike. Around 1200 euro damage. That was not a fun experience.

There are many “nature films” where indeed the cameraman is filming himself during such activities. I think it’s a budget thing…
