    I’m the first to admit that I am one, but backpacking has a similar thing, gear junkies. They like the gear and having the lightest weight x and the most multifunction y more than the actual walking and sleeping outside.

    It’s the whole reason why titanium sporks exist when a disposable plastic spoon is cheaper, lighter, and lasts perfectly fine for the duration of 99% of backpacking trips.




  • I’m not sure you can blame short term rentals for this happening in desirable vacation spots worldwide. People have become much more mobile, and a decade of very cheap interest rates mean that there is no more “run down cheap cabin in the woods” any more. Even for owners who have owned those properties for many years, insurance costs and taxes have spike along with the housing costs.

    I own a home in a very expensive area with extremely limited geography that prevents additional development, but also has in place a practical ban on short term rentals- 28 day minimum. This has not led to more affordable housing, but rather a lot of empty vacation homes owned by very wealthy people and $700/night hotel rooms. Also, locals being pushed out due to spiralling insurance and property tax increases. All without short term rental being a factor.












  • The communication standard is the same, but until Tesla authorizes Hyundai public keys on superchargers, you won’t be able to initialize a session.

    The native ccs plug means you can use current CCS stations at 800v 240kw charging without an adapter, while when NACS connectors roll out you will have to use an adapter to pull 240kw at existing CCS stations while you will be able to pull only ~150kw @400v from Tesla superchargers until they eventually roll out v4 superchargers in the US. I for one would rather use an adapter for the lower power Tesla connection than having to use one on high power CCS stations, so I’m happy I have a CCS car.
