Whatever makes you sleep at night bud
If only you were driving a normal sized car, the same amount of gas would take you twice as far.
For the damage it’s doing, fossil fuels should be several times more expensive to compensate in climate change costs and reduce demand.
There should be a carbon tax, but whoever signs it will be the least popular president in history. One of the flaws of democracy is that sometimes the thing that really needs to happen is unpopular with the moronic citizenry that can’t understand why it needs to happen.
Remember when gas went up a little bit under Biden and these motherfuckers never shut the fuck up about it? I am sick of this shit
Pushing £2/litre here and I am still waiting for air quality to improve. Maybe £5/litre is necessary.
Higher prices for most with reductions on red diesel could possibly be a good compromise.
You don’t need a fucking SUV to go to the corner shop 500m away.
the corner shop 500m away
A lot of Americans live 30 minutes from the nearest real grocery store.
But yeah they still don’t need a lifted truck to go there. It’s not like the cashiers at the Wal Mart Super Center are going to be impressed by their Carolina Squat lifted white pavement princess, but that’s what they insist on driving.
30 minutes is cycling to another town here. Or if you want to drive during rush hour, it gets you half way down the main road.
Which weighs more, a gallon of gold or a gallon of feathers? /s
Psshh you won’t trick me. They weigh the same.
Yes, so now you have “justified” the gas prices. What about the child grape, misogyny, racism, and general evil?
A gallon of petrol is a good use of $4 if you are going to have the pedo president burnt at the stake.
Where I live, gas is 2.28€/L, that’s about $11.80/gallon, still people rather drive their car to work every day instead of riding the 2000€ eBike collecting dust in their garage, and they are 5km (3.1mi) away from work. I would argue has price is not expensive enough for them.
On the other hand, the student we have on part time, rides the train 2 hours to come, because it’s too expensive for him to tank up his motorcycle.
Pic I took the other day, price was the same when I drove past it last night
Talking points have been distributed
Oh shit is this not a joke?
agents deployed.
Hahaha Michelle Maxwell had a 4 out of 5 chance of getting the stressed word correct and completely bombed. Impressive stuff. Almost any other of those words would have been better than ‘of’.
lol yeah. I don’t think any of those words need stressing though. Works fine without it. 😄
Huh, they let Betty be a lesbian.
How can you tell from this picture?
“Wife”
Betty might have transitioned. They go to the men’s room too.
If Betty wasn’t a bot they’d be so upset right now.
Beep Boop beep I keep hearing people complain…
Saya terus-menerus mendengar orang mengeluh…
Smells like cope.
Technically he isn’t wrong, but not for the reasons he thinks. Gas prices are subsidized significantly. And if they weren’t, people sure wouldn’t drive as much. Unsubsidized it would be between 10 and 15 per gallon. So if 2 to 4 is double, that would mean it would now be 20 to 30. So like a dollar a mile in his math.
My bike gets like 100 miles per gallon of oatmeal
density of oatmeal (source (although this is with sugar)): 693 kg/m³ = 0.69 kg/L
nutritional value of oatmeal (source): 297 kJ/100g = 2970 kJ/kg
(oatmeal with sugar and stuff: 4600 kJ/kg, same source as the first one)
typical leisurely cycling energy expenditure (source): 80 kJ/km
bicycle oatmeal-efficiency: (2970 kJ/kg * 0.69 kg/L) / (80 kJ / km) ≈ 25.62 km/L ≈ 3.9 L/100km ≈ 60 mpg
bicycle oatmeal-efficiency with sugary oatmeal: (4600 kJ/kg * 0.69 kg/L) / (80 kJ/km) ≈ 39.68 km/L ≈ 2.5 L/100km ≈ 93 mpg
please do correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks like the math pretty much checks out on that one!
Similar with mine. 80km a week in cycling to work.
Herb grower eh. I use mine to get around town when Ive been uh… Growing herb…
Used to be a 20 buck can into town and 20 back. Saved hundreds on cabs, hundreds on fuel, got in better shape
That can’t be good for the fuel injector.
You need to mix it with something. Once you add water or milk its great. It usually gets stuck when you add it dry.
Just don’t put any additives or you will blow up the exhaust
Nothing beats bicycle when it’s comes to efficiency.
Petrol is super cheap, because the only thing you can really do with it is burn it for energy.
That and you waste 60-90 percent of that energy potential as heat.
What if we harvest that heat for energy
That is exactly what we are doing in the upper end of that efficiency range (turbochargers, turbine generators, heater cores) - the waste heat from that is unharvestable (exhaust gas, engine core heat).
Yea, combined cycle gas turbine power plants are pushing above 60% efficiency. They use the waste heat from the turbine exhaust to generate steam and then extract energy from there. About as good as it gets.
Cars could be a lot better if emissions wasn’t a concern.
Is this not a joke?
The focus on golf clubs tells me exactly the type of person this is. Also, my bike will transport my wife and clubs for a lot longer than 30 minutes on cheap Ramen lunch.
That is If I had golf clubs…
Or a bike…
And my wife may have left me…
Now I’m hungry for noodles.
It’s literally a bot with made-up talking points. This isn’t a a real person.
I had some really good ramen last night at one of the conveyor belt sushi places.
Super expensive.
But good.
DM ME NOODlES!
