They are cool, although there are risk connected to using them. In some cases an appliance can draw more power than the circuit is rated for without tripping a circuit breaker.

They are not legal in Norway, and with all houses being made out of wood it makes sense, but I guess the risk in UK or Germany is lower.

That's a very slippery slope. I am sure there are parts of Latvia that would happily join Russia. Or parts of US that would like to cede from the union. This is all but easy.

Yes it is

Yeah, I was involved in injection moulding profesionally - on a customer side, just like Destin. Situation in Europe is very similar. While you can produce competitevly in Europe, to produce a mould most people go to China. Cheaper, faster, and just as good quality.

My work mandates Edge as a browser on the company PC. With Edge on Linux I can have a "work" browser on my private PC with bookmark sync etc.

I am using StarLite V with N200, which is very similar to N150. I find out perfectly acceptable. It is no speed demon but as my main daily PC for web, GIMP or minor gaming works great.

In EU from 2027 as per law (removable, not necessarily thick)

Your are absolutely right. I have misspoken (miswritten?).

Nah, I think Norway is perfect country for EV adoption. Winters are not that cold - most of population lives on the coast. Mountain driving is much better in EV than in a fossil car - when you need to descent from a high altitude in petrol car you have to remember to keep high gear and not to burn breaks. In EV you just smile at the battery charge going up.

In Norway almost all driving is 70 - 90 km/h tops. You have quite high efficiency here, so a 400km rated EV will actually deliver that range on a road trip. It is like 5 hours of driving before you need to charge again. In central Europe in a similar car you jump on a motorway and at 140km/h you need to recharge after 2 hours or so, which is annoying.

I agree that people rarely drive more than 2 hours, but Norway is pretty big, or at least long - over 2000km between Kristiansand and Trømso.

That increases their budget by 50%
