How far can you drive with 100€…..And actually. Reality is if you buy 100€ of solar power gets you 6000km. Which is why in reality they are fighting against solar and electric cars. Calculated if you take summer time where you get big sun time in and end up around 5 to 10 cent per kWh. If the people can make their own power. For their home and for their vehicles. They are living massively cheaper and are way less reliant on the whole system.

@silas not on a single charge, and inflating fuel costs to make e vehicles look more appealing is obviously happening

@sirjoho yea but you can get EVs that can go 1000km in a single charge already. That’s reality. But anyway most people need to piss after a couple hundred anyway. So that’s still a bs point

@silas Got thrown by the decimal point that isn't a decimal point.In the US "2.083" means 2 plus a little more.Would Europeans use a comma to denote hundredths?

@tj yes it’s at least in German literally pronounced Komma. In numbers like 200,12 200.12

@silas Here we go - it's the German's fault:"Leibniz was an influential mathematician, and the dot as a multiplication sign became widespread in Europe. But this solution created another problem: The dot as a multiplication sign could be confused with the decimal point."https://www.languageediting.com/number-formatting-europe-vs-us/

@silas My father-in-law told me that in his day, engineering students in the US were required to learn German because all the best engineering documents were in German.An engineer who couldn't read German couldn't be trusted.Nowadays, of course, we have Google translate.
