Ah,Thanks! Never really picked up on that meme.

Anybody want to clue in us who don’t get it?

Oh man! That took me down memory lane!

I once had to reverse engineer a database to make an invoice integration. They had an int named flags. It contained all status booleans in the entire system. Took me a while to figure that one out.

Store 8 bits in the same byte then 👌

I still think a standard for swapping is a good idea.

For me it’s not just about the charging. If I can swap my battery then the risk of the battery breaking is suddenly not as big anymore. A lot of the cars that are trashed, here in Norway at least, is because of the battery.

I don’t really need a really long range ev in my day to day. I live 10 km away from work and have a cheap car with wltp of 240km (150 miles), which is kind of low, but more than enough. We charge it one to three nights a week and that works great for us.

With regards to the charging stops: We have a gasoline powered car as well and we always take that car to visit family which is a five hour drive because we don’t want the one hour mandatory stop. Juggling kids in the back seat with all of their stops needed it just isn’t practical. Also the one hour stop isn’t even enough in the winter. Then we need two stops. Combined with all of the small stops a five hour drive can suddenly become seven and those hours are the difference if we do the trip or not for us.

I would like the combination. Home charging day to day, but swapping on longer road trips.

That’s smart! However I don’t have a backpack with me every time I put on shoes.

Love shoehorns. Use them at every opportunity. But they are not every place I put on shoes.

Im about to turn 40. Still do this 😅

What even is a tariff on a foreign movie? Licensing to show it doubles?

No worries!

Lapp is a slur in Norwegian and not much used but I don’t know if it is used as an insult.

What does sopuli mean?

In Norway we don’t use the lappland term for that area. That is just the area the sapmi originates for us. I knew that lappland was an official region in Finland, but didn’t know until now that it was an official region in Sweden as well. In Norway however the outlined area roughly consists of Finnmark, Troms, Nordland and Trøndelag.

I guess we didn’t learn Sweden and Finlands regions in elementary school here in Norway in the 90s. I didn’t at least.

Lapland is in Finland. Hardangervidda is in Norway. It is flat as well though.

Wow! I want to upvote, downvote and report you at the same time. Kudos!

In the end all i did was leave this lousy comment
