Yes, you can copy the article text into chatGPT and ask for a summary. For this article, though, it’s much faster to scan it for points 1, 2, and 3.
Hahaha...I love those kinds of things, you did a great job with the dialogue...
“Are you ******* kidding me?”
Of course, I do get the tyranny of YouTube. No doubt about that! Thanks for the link, I enjoyed it...:)
I am not seeing how they came up with 25 refrigerators extra load. A L2 home charger is going to be 80% or 30 amps or 80% of 50 amps. Which means 24 amps or 40 amps at 240 volts. The average clothes dryer is on a 30 amp two pole breaker and the HVAC unit is usually on a 50 amp two pole. So at most it’s equal to the existing a.c. Unit’s load.
My Model 3 is averaging 180 watt hours per mile mixed urban and suburban/exurban driving. The average person drives 40 miles or less per day this is also the furthest I typically go into North Big D and back every few days. 40 miles per day at 180 watt hours per mile is 7.2 kilowatt hours per day that’s a whole lot less than 25 fridges it actually equal to one hour of your A.C. Units use or an hour and half of a typical clothes dryer. Here again it makes no sense at 25 refrigerators... 7 kWh is also 85 cents worth of retail power. To cover that same 40 miles in my S60 at 28mpg and 2.99 a gallon today would be $4.27 vs 85 cents.
I think this “journalist” took a fast DC charge rate and a empty battery and said oh look it’s this huge load that people will draw every day. No one drives 300+ miles per day so no one is going to have an empty pack every day and no one has a fast DC charger at 250kw at the house. A 300 mile EV means the average person will need to charge once a week or less and even then a home L2 at 30 amps will fill that 300 miles up in 8 hours once or less a week not per day.

Wow! Thanks!
I drive a Tacoma Double cab Long bed. It is almost impossible to pull into a parking space going forward. Therefore, I typically back in. With the camera you can safely get within a few inches of the vehicle behind it.
Geometric parking makes much more sense. The town I formerly lived in had it in their downtown main street instead of parallel parking.
Example where I asked chatGPT to ignore the timings of the thread creator’s post and prepare a one paragraph summary: https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/4240735/posts?page=44#44
FTA: oil is the second most abundant liquid on this planet.

Interesting, but I worry that chatgpt might leave out something, or might misinterpret the author’s writing.
I don’t mean maliciously.
I didn’t think of this concern in my earlier post.
A summary by chatgpt might help us in speed-reading the original article.
EV infrastructure puts out HEAT. “Fast Charging” especially.
Big institutional investors like Blackrock and Vanguard have all the sway. They are heavily into ESG. Ford/GM didn't decide to go all electric back in the day without their nudging. Now it has backfired.
Yes. I have been trying to help people understand exactly that point, and that is that DIE has been baked into our economy by those scumbags at Blackrock and Vanguard.
