Faraday bags make great stocking stuffers.

The sentence structure is kinda wonky coming from English, but the vocab isn’t bad. There are tons of cognates.

I don’t disagree conceptually, but English has been a lingua franca for a long time now.

Close. It’s flea market.

It’s not that bad. It’s just German for flea market. And English speakers shouldn’t have an issue with at least “Markt”. Not far from a cognate.

Definitely better names but I think the bigger hurdle is getting the critical mass to get something like marketplace to work in the fediverse even with the perfect name.

It is, definitely. We own our home and leave it on the level 1 charger all the time. It gets us around the metro just fine, no long commutes so it’s great for us. And as someone mentioned somewhere around here, a longer charge time isn’t necessarily bad if you’re the only driver on long trips. I’m honestly more worried about having to stop in areas with only a couple chargers (Midwest here) and some asshole vandalizing them and leaving me stranded. But that’s a concern that pops up once or twice a year at best. And the various charger apps are pretty good a letting you know they’re down.

I’m certain that I won’t be able to put out an ice engine either. That’s fire people territory and I trust them to know their business.

Someone once referred to motorcyclists (specifically the ones without helmets or leathers) as “meat crayons” in front of me and I can never get it out of my head.

As the owner of a Bolt, the only significant criticism is range (mine’s a 2020, gets ~180mi comfortably on the interstate) and charging rate (2020 bolts are limited to 50 kW, so kinda specific). Not great for road trips, but otherwise fantastic. As for electric fires… yeah I wasn’t gonna be able to put that out anyway so the firefolk have it either way.
