[Question] Do charging stations generally accept credit/debit cards?
  • I've only rented an ev, but only about half the time they have successfully taken a cc. Either they were broken, or it was just missing.

    A lot of them have apps, which is very annoying as a renter, but if you own the car it should be less of an issue.

    Afaik you don't actually need to purchase a subscription to use them.

  • Collapse Will Look Nothing Like in the Movies
  • Also batteries, lithium is expensive so a lot of companies are trying to come up with cheaper, but also more sustainable alternatives. And they already have with lithium iron phosphate that requires less lithium. And as prices for a substance rise, so will the desire for alternatives and recycling.

    Does taking my glasses off to 'let my eyes rest' actually have any meaningful effect? Or am I just making my eyes work harder?
  • I think it depends, farsighted? Probably not.

    Nearsighted looking at things hopelessly out of focus and not trying to look, perhaps.

    I'm very nearsighted amd taking my glasses seems to make them relax, since nothing will be close enough to make them focus.

    Somebody that's farsighted might strain their eyes to focus without their glasses.

  • How much should I care about news?
  • There are other elections throughout the year... Midterms at the federal level, and often state and local elections too.

    Admittedly how it works in the US, but I'm sure still applies in other countries, maybe not everywhere.

  • Your City's Wealth Isn't Where You Think
  • Those lots are probably a quarter the size of the lot I'm on, in a affluent suburban house. Maybe even smaller

    Its true that it's not that dense though.

    It's also pretty likely that there are more residents per house than a typical affluent neighborhood.

  • Your City's Wealth Isn't Where You Think
  • A lot of strong towns framing uses "financial productivity" defined as tax revenue per unit area, usually acre. Poor neighborhood's houses may be cheap, but are packed much more densely, leading to higher revenue per unit area. less in taxes per lot, but also lower maintenance costs per lot.
