The entire post is the polar opposite generalization of two different groups. Or what point do you think this is making here?

The service is the fast charger being able to charge fast and being in a location you want to use it?

Want? They’re by gas stations and malls.

The extra cost is to cover infrastructure costs like buying and installing the thing,

They made the thing, it’s pure profit for them, they aren’t renting them lmfao.

leasing the land for it

Normally it’s the land owner, why would you rent land?

running the technology,

It’s a POS unit and a charger, what tech? Do you realize none of these things are a thing for GAS or Petrol…?

and replacing cables every time some muppet comes along with wire cutters.

Insurance dude….

Plus the cost of running a network where some charge points are hardly used but still need to be maintained.

What…? How much cost do you think there is for an unused charger that doesn’t draw anything when not used? I already said it’s built off the public utilities… or do you think that they’re digging up a few 100 miles beside a road to run a power line….? This seriously isn’t what you’re thinking is it……?

use a wall outlet at home for my EV, it has never been an issue. I guess I live in a different environment.

If it’s not getting to -30 to -50c, no, you really aren’t, and the vast majority of people refuse to acknowledge that.

Imagine if gas or another “service” charged 500% profit on the only cost they have….

What service? It’s charger attached to public infrastructure. They also get better electrical rates than you do. And almost everyone who owns an EV that I know has a fast homer charger, can’t get any rebates without its installation.

You also won’t get much charge during winter if you just use a regular outlet charger. Too cold, and not fast enough.

I can see for protests as that’s all you can really do is make noise, but DT Calgary is otherwise normally quiet. I live there myself.

Do people in the US not realize that honking accomplishes nothing? Were used to the traffic, why honk?

This is nuts, we pay 8c cad per kw/h.

Your northerly neighbor. I’ve been to a few US cities as well.

All the tropes I’ve seen are about a few American cities, usually not portrayed in other countries.

? What major cities have constant honking? Is that actually a thing? Or just an American thing.

I’ve heard it described as being quite different. There’s no builds, and there’s more exploration than combat. It’s more a traditional RPG than a soulsbourne. If you’re going into looking for deep combat or learning enemy moves or behaviors you’ll be disappointed.

The only way I parse that is as “Demon is Souls”, and I don’t care if it’s right or not.

And than there’s Demon’s Souls just sitting in the corner I guess.

Third party apps had to pay to access the api, and with no good way to pass that on the the users without ads, it did essentially freeze it.

And give them free marketing?

The article does have it, second paragraph btw.

You are mocking something that are useful tools for people who may not know they are indicative of actual potential issues?

Your comment very clearly is, you just don’t realize that you’re a terrible person. It’s like pointing out that a racist is being racist. It just doesn’t work.

It’s no different than those PSAs like, do you snore, you may have OSA. How would the person know something was wrong otherwise or know to ask?
