So I needed to rent a car while mines down and being worked on. The only car available at a reasonable price I could find in my area turns out to be an electric car. So I was given the car at 40% charged with 90 miles to go. I do gig work. 90 miles doesn't fly with me. So I bring it to one of these charging stations and it will take 2.5 hours to fully charge the vehicle. The thing doesn't plug in easy and there is no option to rapid charge. I had to call the customer service help because the machine got stuck on initiating the charge and the car wouldn't let me unplug it.
So then I thought this is a genius idea to be able to take total control over the people. But will take time. Force everyone to have electric car. Then cut off the power and BAM. Travel just became harder.
The features are cool though. Tells me when it's not safe to merge lanes by having light up pictures showing there's a car at a certain point and it sound like a space ship while you are braking. When you turn off the car it tells me to check the back seat. I asked the rental guy why and he said it's so you don't accidentally leave your kid in the back seat.
Want a real kick in the pants?
FIRST Check out this 40 year old song... incredible musicianship, and especially read the words.
Its about a day when personal transportation of any kind has become illegal.
After hearing in high qual and reading it. Check out the visually stunning but audio wanting isolated drum cover by some kid in Scandinavia. He even accurately plays the drum fill at 2:50-2:60, that clearly shows why the late drummer for this band was referred to as 'The Professor'. On the drum kit cover, do yourself a favor and turn it DOWN some...and just watch with the sound low but not off.
