Anon gets laid off

  I realise it’s a joke and the details are irrelevant, but an EV is probably going to take weeks to drain its battery just sitting on in the garage. Days if it’s running the A/C.

  Moving the vehicle costs so much energy that it’s a bit shocking how long an EV battery lasts if you use it for things other than driving.

    I only use my Tesla for powering my washer and dryer.

    (/s. I wouldn’t let a Tesla occupy any space I owned or controlled.)

      Even still, my EV could run the electric dryer for 12h straight on the highest settings. Washer is a rounding error in that estimate. It takes a lot to use up am EV battery.

    Ye, my car has regular household outlets, I calculated it could power my pc setup for about 18 days (in ideal conditions).

      I read somewhere Texans are using their Ford Lightnings for backup power when their home electricity cuts off. Interesting.

    Insert rivian truck literal plugs for bench saws and other light construction equipment.

    A Yellow Canary Program created with Red Dwarf quantum geometries is highly powerful and its own advanced Turing complete coding system.

  Sounds like a pretty shitty EV if it dies in 3 hours sitting in a garage.

    I mean, Tesla is only one of those two things. And it’s not pretty.

  Anon still can’t get out of the car and if trapped tho.

  Wasn’t there a problem with Teslas, that you cannot open the doors when the battery is drained?

  In that case… mission accomplished (somewhat, but slower and more painful)?!

    Every Tesla has an emergency unlock system on all doors. You can always open doors even if the battery is flat.

      Yes, every door has a system similar to a trunk release cord. AFAIK It’s hidden, so if you don’t know it exists, you’re screwed. Good luck getting your children out in an emergency.

      The battery is a globe.

  Don’t catalytic converters make even ICE cars take forever for this now too? Well, depending on how sealed the garage is

    Cats convert CO to CO2, and NOx to N2 (mostly irrelevant for this conversation). In closed space, the exhaust is still deadly, but you are correct in that CO would cause quicker death than CO2 displacing the oxygen.

    Relatively low concentrations of CO will cause severe drops in red blood cell’s ability to transport oxygen, then follows unconsciousness and death. CO2 in contrast would require higher concentrations to be effective, as it would only reduce the efficiency of gas transfer in the lungs and lead to slow and painful decreasing blood pH - and a strong panic reflex and the ‘I can’t breathe’ feeling - until eventual unconsciousness and death.

      Ah okay, my understanding is that the new way is it literally needs to replace the oxygen in the garage with exhaust fumes so you suffocate instead of the nice “going to sleep” that CO caused. I didn’t know the science behind it though.

  teslas are always on… so he’s like full stupid.

    Servers with corporate versions of System32 are always on and sometimes crashing, too.

  And that is the kind of intellect running things there.

    No, that was the higher paid intellect that was cut. The remainder are dumber than that.
