You have a point; some EVs like the Leaf don’t even have conditioning. The Volt does have active conditioning, and being a PHEV instead of a BEV has battery charge and discharge limits which were limited by the factory to preserve longevity at the expense of being able to charge to a true 100%. If extra range is needed the ICE is activated instead of stressing the traction battery.
It would be fun to have a Bollywood style flashmob show up at one of these stores.

I see a lot of desktop posts and everyone seems to include that shell output showing specs. What command is that?
I like wX on F-Droid.
You wanted Firechat. It was closed-source, though. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FireChat
While stopped, keep it in first gear and hold the clutch. Plan an escape path ahead of time and park at a slant if you have to. Using your mirrors, remain vigilant of traffic approaching from behind. Safe rides! 🏍️✌️
I went two wheels! My moto gets excellent fuel economy without the use of exotic metals like a hybrid or EV does. It was also way cheaper to buy than a car. Sometimes my parking is less of an impact, too because I can park in the landscaping islands in some parking lots if it’s busy and I’m sneaky about it. One must be a very diligent and defensive rider and wear protective gear when riding. Having a different perspective about traffic flow helps with safety as well. Going slow for a bit after a stop while everyone else rushes ahead is a great way to keep traffic away from oneself. Also, having all the lights has helped everyone see me. No more cars pulling in front anymore. Don’t be an arse, be extremely vigilant, and respect the machine. These rules have helped me so far. Many motorcyclists don’t do that and have really skewed statistics and perception, I think.

I would wonder about shared loads on the mains causing undesirable power factors or other electrical noise. I’d check that the mains frequency remains within specification as well: 50/60Hz ± 3Hz according to APC.
l’ll speak up for airplanes, or at least airliners in particular. I concede the point they mostly burn non-renewable fuels, but they make excellent use of the resources. Rhetorically speaking, one can cross half the planet in half a day, for not much money, in a mode of transport that is the safest on the planet (typically an order of magnitude safer than cars as I recall).
Draught. Seems we’ve already respelt it as “draft”.
I kill them with a spray bottle filled with 70% isopropyl alcohol. The mist is difficult to avoid, and once they’re knocked down, I drown them with a few more blasts. I think the surface tension of the alcohol is able to permeate the tiny holes (spiracles) that would normally keep water out of their respiratory system. No guts, just wipe away the fly’s body and any excess alcohol. Anything you miss will simply evaporate. Bonus: 70% isopropyl alcohol is a disinfectant, so you’ve already helped clean any disease the fly may have been carrying.
