Think he’s on a walk about!
As noted by Snipe, Barney and his way better half are traveling.
Doesnt always have wifi or service to be here and catches up when he can.
I thought this was gonna be a photo of someone’s barrel after using a folding cleaning rod. lol
Re: EV, Lithium, and such discussion. Rather than list a bunch of citations, I suggest that you google, "slavery and lithium batteries", then google "are lithium batteries really green?" an amazing amount of literature on child slavery, displacement of villages, rape of the land and spoilage of water. THEN make up your own mind about the subject. I know that there are large impacts from other industries as well, but worrying about wether it costs more to charge at a commercial station rather than at home, is just so shallow a concern. Like an0other person noted, people don't want to know where their beef comes from (or chicken).
Now that's the only logical reason to drive an EV, you've decided that it's cheaper to operate. No silly save the planet feel good emotion.Actually… Yeah it takes a shitload of time to go from 80% to 100%… Probably 45 minutes. It’s like a big freaking iPad…. and not one of the new cool ones.
Now, on the other hand, if you have access to only a 6 kW charger… It’s about 11 hours to charge the car.
At about $.13 a kilowatt hour… from 0% to 100% charge is ~$10 for 300 miles.
Conversely, 300 mile in my Subaru Ascent would cost me ~$63 in gas.
It’s a shitload cheaper to charge an electric vehicle than it is to buy gasoline even when it’s not four dollars a gallon. The United States has a boatload of charging stations throughout the entire country on all of the major highways coast to coast As well and up and down the coasts.
I do laugh when some idiot walks up to me and says “I’m really impressed with your green vehicle.”
I generally have one or two responses depending on how insanely crunchy the person is:
”Do you really think my car is tremendously carbon neutral? Have you seen how much plastic is in this thing… Never mind what happens when we have to figure out how to recycle these batteries?”
( obviously we have a tremendous infrastructure for recycling existing vehicles… And we’re gonna have to catch up with a newer technology, which will happen eventually. )
” yeah, my car might be green… But I’m increasing America’s carbon footprint one round at a time. I love my guns “
Most everyone likes sausage, few want to see it made.
That, and the random spontaneous combustion. Which after the fire is put out, becomes a toxic waste site.

All that assumes one cares about countries that have always been lands of super rich tyrants and dirt poor slaves...
Usually it at least means they feed the child workers.
