from british gossip rag popbitch:

quote:

>> Elon-gate <<
Out of sight; out of life

Elon Musk has been doubling down on calling a British rescue diver a paedophile, suggesting that because the diver didn't try to sue him there must be some truth to his allegation (a legal argument that even we aren't stupid enough to try...)

It's easy to mock Musk, but it's worth remembering that he isn't the most articulate when it comes to explaining himself.

For example, when he and Talulah Riley split, rather than get into any long conversations about the break-up, or the heartache, or any of the emotional unpleasantness that such a separation inevitably involves, he simply told people that she was dead.

Including his kids.

- I wonder if he loses standing because he benefitted from Muskie tanking the stock rather than taking losses

- Tesla fanboys are willfully ignorant that there's a legal definition for "secured funding", I watched people on Slashdot link the legal definition and still have the TSLA koolaid drinkers saying "wrong, there are many definitions of funding secured"

Lead acid batteries age by sulfatation which can be reversed with good chargers. They also don't age nearly as much when they are topped off regularly.

My bike batteries are between 3 and 10 years old. One of my cars developed an internal short in the battery last winter, but that was after 8 years of battery life.

I just bought a bike+battery this year, it's conventional lead acid, bringing it inside and putting it on a trickle charger for the winter should keep it alive right?

I have a garage in the house so I just put charging ports on the bikes and swap the charger around every couple weeks in the winter.

There are cheap trickle chargers wirh 1amp or so that will do plenty fine if you just leave them attached for storage. I only got bigger chargers so I swap them around and make sure the cars stay topped off as well.

Also i doubt that even if you use liquid acid that you have an open battery. Most of them are sealed from the factory nowadays so no worries about evaporation

It's definitely open, it shipped dry and I had to add the acid myself. It's got a vent hole.

Not a big deal because you can see the acid line thru the translucent plastic and topping it up with distilled water should be super easy if I ever have to.

I've got one of those cheapo trickle chargers, I'll probably leave it hooked up the entire winter.

i genuinely don't understand why teslas can't be put into neutral without power. it's a goddamned electric car. with no power it should just coast like a skateboard

Presumably if you're on a mountain road and your car bluescreens you would want it to start braking instead of turning into a skateboard. Do teslas have manual emergency brakes?
