Of course, the only people who have to make sacrifices for national, economic, and energy security are poor people
So this ship is obviously just an experiment in greenwashing, it sounds like the panels basically just keep the lights on.
But if the 10,800 cars were all EVs equipped with V2L and you had them powering the ship, how far could their batteries at 100% propel the ship?
10,800 * 80 kWh = 864,000 kWh. Another post said the engine output is 15,000 kW, so it could go full steam for 864,000/15,000 = 57.6 hours? Although I guess using an electric rather than fossil engine will be a lot more efficient (2x? 3x?) Still, the energy density of oil is amazing...
If broken slop apps crowd out the good, actually usable apps so the App Store just becomes a cesspool of useless garbage, they make no money as people wil abandon trying to find a tool for their problem.
Have you considered financing a Tesla????
Sadly, their car sales are back up in Europe since unfortunately nobody has morals anymore. The real answer is "blowing your money on the next grift - AI and robotics"
If your neighbor has an EV and you don't, suddenly you've decided that you're poor
As always, people have short memories, or just do not give a shit about ethics

Tesla’s vehicle sales rose 77 percent from January through May compared with a year earlier, the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association said this week. In May, Tesla sold 22,000 cars in Europe. That’s more than Ford, Nissan or Honda, even when including their fossil-fuel models.
Many people seem to have put aside their personal feelings about Mr. Musk after Tesla cut prices for its entry-level models to levels that are competitive with comparable gasoline or diesel vehicles and inexpensive cars from China. In some countries, Tesla’s Model Y sport utility vehicles can be leased for less than 300 euros, or about $340, a month.
“Once you go down the pricing scale, people pay less attention to ethics or morality,” said Matthias Schmidt, an independent analyst in Berlin who tracks electric vehicles sales. “Tesla’s product has become so appealing from a price perspective, it’s almost too good to refuse.”
As long as you still have tens of millions of people pre-ordering GTA6, nothing is going to change. People bitch and whine but they keep eating the slop.
Apple once advertised their new PowerMac G4 was so powerful it was classified as a munition and hence illegal to export. (this was stretching the truth a bit as the regulation allowing export of over 1 gigaflops machines had already passed)
