It’s the TOSA https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TOSA_(bus)

I really like the “thermal runaway thing” expression, and yeah it is a false equivalency but it’s a funny one.

EV charging and the tech around it can be slow today, but it doesn’t mean we should abandon and go back to what we know is working (as some people want to). This is a recipe for zero innovation and not the way to become a Star Trek like civilization.

In my city there are electric buses that charge in a few seconds at some stops along the route. No overhead wires, no big diesel engines and no noise.

We just need to work and improve those new vehicles, find better than the actual EV and combustion engines as well.

Just get rid of the fuel stations. It’s ridiculous that vehicles owners should expect to refuel their cars anywhere but at home or at work

Yeah ok… Clean them like any normal logical human being, aka by using common sense and stuff you already have at home. Or buy those non necessary cleaning kits!

Thanks wired.

We have (or had?) a bad English cursus at school, I don’t know if that changed as I have not be at school in a while.

A somewhat strong culture with enough to read, listen and watch 100% French content in a lifetime, so that doesn’t help. And a few remains of rebellion that does not help as well.

I believe the French dubbing industry is also known for its quality with plenty of talented voice actors. But I heard this from others, I usually consume cinema or tv in the original language.

You are right that it clearly does not help. I am always annoyed when I see a French speaker crying over Steam forums that x video game does not have a French traduction, just play it in English duh.

Anyway, we have a perfect dumb science excuse that we love: We cannot speak good English because of our native language frequency. That’s it, we can’t do shit about it, c’est la vie 🤷🏻‍♂️

I speak perfect English and voluntarily keep my French accent cause it gets me laid.

Also because I’m too lazy to introduce myself or put the fucking emphasis at the correct place, but mostly because of the first reason.

That’s refreshing

Same in a little bit to your west Europe.
