That’s nice and all but not what the headline compared and therefore not the point. That comparison was specifically between ICEs and EVs.

Yes.

There’s a small company party near to where I live that converts ICEs to EVs.

Bottom line is that it’s expensive as fuck to do so and the clients are either well-off folks that want an electric version of their favourite historic car (DeLorean or 2cv or something like that) or companies that calculate much differently, with six digits worth of km on their delivery vehicles. It’s not economical to do that to an ordinary car with ordinary kilometres per year.

I’m driving one.

It’s nice.

So? Overall risk is still much lower.

First time I ever heard about guardrails having issues with EVs. Do you have a source for that?

Also the comment was about the fire risk, which the article was about.

The article is about batteries that might catch fire less often.

ICEs catch fire much more often than EVs already. The comment was specifically about that.

They don’t catch fire that often though.

Which is what that headline is about.

Which has nothing to do with the drive train.

the breakthrough that makes EVs safer than ICE cars

Did Toyota write this? EVs already are much safer than ICEs, the headline reads like it’s trying to gaslight people into thinking otherwise.

Only those that dissolve my dna to produce electricity that’s an order of magnitude more expensive than the one that can be generated from thin air or sunlight.

my home is powered by nuclear energy

Lost me there

This isn’t fixing. This is a bandaid for some symptoms because god forbid we stop burning the planet to the ground.

Person I replied to said it’s 20 bucks tho.

Big fan of both, don’t know why it has to be one or the other for an OSS credentials manager

20 bucks are kind of a reason tho?

Keepass is free?

I can’t tell if you’re joking or not

I can’t tell if you’re joking or not.

Is that the bubble beginning to pop?
