EVs need better infrastructure for charging on the go and only tesla had that problem solved, kind of

looking at any public-access EV charging areas on a map and half of them will be hotels for their customers, and the other half are in somebody's driveway

TheDon01 posted:Our city owned power company is offering charging stations installed in your home for EVs. this only helps a bit and i would imagine anyway that most EV owners have at-home charging stations. if you live in an apartment, some states mandate that the apartment allow you to install whatever charging system you want, but at your own cost. even if you can't afford a charging station, all EVs can charge slowly via a normal wall outlet the issue is with longer trips, where the battery can simply get too low. normal cars have gas stations, teslas have charging stations, and every other EV has the owner desperately searching for a free wall outlet somewhere

it would own if EVs had a standard plug that was capable of really fast charging but since tesla is going down the "a car is just a huge phone" we're probably going to end up with like 2-3 charging standards

to be fair a ton of people do life science majors for healthcare occupations there is literally no other reason for some majors to exist if they weren't direct doctor/nurse/pa/other funnels

biology was the largest life science major at my undergrad and i would say a solid 99% of them were aspiring pre-med / other. because it's such a superficial stupid major that lacks any specificity to pursue any sort of real graduate work, and there are no serious jobs in that field that would even consider hiring somebody with a BA or BS in biological sciences

Epic High Five posted:this is true of everything except bookstores (which don't even make hardly anything on new books so they hate the 'release new edition with 1 line changed every year' thing too) and, oddly enough, sushi bookstores figured out that people were just buying them online or whatever, so for at least my old undergrad they made "exclusive editions" tailor made for the school. all they did was switch chapters around and gently caress over page numbers, which did the job of killing resale value which was the whole point sushi you can't skimp on because health and taste, but there are $15-$20 all you can eat sushi places now which own (if you don't contract food poisoning like I did)

Used to fill up an entire like 12 inch diameter platter of sushi packed full for like $20 gently caress those online access codes, gently caress them to hell I'm extremely surprised that bookstores are just glorified merch stands but that makes a ton of sense. my school built a new bookstore in the last few years co-owned (or just straight up owned) with Barnes and Nobles, and two of the three floors are merch

i don't get it, how are they rich as gently caress if their books don't change. i get that everyone uses it, but then at some point aren't there so many copies out there that new ones are rendered unnecessary?
