As of now, a flat amount charged by the state doesn’t account for actual usage, even if it is a straight forward implementation. the down side to your suggestion is that it requires each state to implement, and it increases EV ownership (cost of installing meters in existing homes without one) also enforcement is another thing that would increase costs probably significantly.

I kinda think updating registration laws/procedures would be a better method. have EV drivers record their odometer every year or whatever time schedule and set it that your registration fees is based on mileage. Have sales require that odo mileage listed with the old owner paying that last bit of mileage owed in taxes. This way, a new owner has a reason to help enforce the odo mileage. No i dont want to say you drove 20k miles than listed, cuz then next time i have to pay for those 20k on next registration.

Interesting points to me are the fact that this 130 fee is:

• more than what the average fuel consuming car pay (70-90)
• Is on top of what many people already pay in state taxes to drive their car

You’re right that I should have clarified, that’s ignoring the Indian based subreddit, which as you state are a lot more normal.

Could you expand more on your 2nd to last sentence? What do you mean be devolved?

Yeah it could just be confirmation bias, it’s definitely hard to confirm those things, and the paranoia with country backed actors trying to affect social media complicates things more.

Agreed, but what I found interesting is how it’s more common with Indian culture than others. I have seen these, seemingly, ragebait videos with other cultures, but it feels like there’s more with Indian culture.

I would have expected what you’re saying to be true, but what I find interesting is I have seen less of the other stereotypes than of the Indian stereotypes. It’s a bit strange in my mind the inequality when you would expect them all be appear equally.

Fucking ABC and their autoplay of videos

Can’t really take you seriously. Fascists and Nazis are both bad, but you’re are idiotic or ignorant to say they are the same.

I’m not familiar with the mirror, or their reliability, so here’s an article from NPR: https://www.npr.org/2025/11/24/g-s1-98612/trump-us-attorney-lindsey-halligan

… are you saying all fascists are nazis?

You’re going to have to explain your comment because it seems you’re making making a way out there comment

what’s clunky? I would agree they have some clunky elements, mainly the targetting will sometimes cause problems, but I don’t recall much else being necessarily clunky.

Kane noted that academic declines are appearing in other countries as well, which suggests a broader global trend that could be linked to increased screen use.

From the article as well. So the pandemic definitely didn’t help, but they also don’t feel it is only because of that. The article also mentions that the decline started since before the pandemic as well.

I’m assuming they found other rounds that were engraved.

Live in LA. Water is good

Thanks for all the info. He talks about learning about Nvidia in the past, and mentions talking about breaking it up. That doesn’t sound like a business man talking about getting involved in the company, or competing against it, that sounds like a politician wanting to address a very strong company. Trump has only been a politician for the past 9 years. So Trump just found out about the largest chip designer in the world 9 years ago… That seems absurd to me.

…you’re grasping for straws.

You clearly implied that buying Chinese EVs was preferable to buying Teslas…

You clearly implied that buying…

…clearly implied…

You also clearly implied you like and support Nazis. No I won’t provide a quote. But it was clearly implied.

Feel free to indicate where I say we should buy Chinese EVs.

Illiterate troll is illiterate. Quote me where I say we should buy Chinese electric vehicles. You’re the only one that says that.

Where did I say to only buy electric vehicles from China?
