"Except the Battery section is powered, so maybe it's still like backing up a single trailer?"

"I think you mean that even if there were equal numbers of EVs and ICE cars on the road, less than 2% of fires would be EVs. as it is, it must be MUCH less than 2%."

"I'd love to hear from some woodworkers about the quality of this tool. the alloy and heat treatment of a saw blade make all the difference."

"It's an interesting outcome of how the extra space that car infrastrucure occupies in America changes the formula on whether it's worth removing a car from the road vs leaving it there with a swimming pool around it. I'm guessing that more often in Europe, there isn't enough space for traffic to get around a swimming pool on the side of the road."

"I understand the worry about being hit by a huge truck, but to me that's like asking a designer of normal clothing, "what will happen if someone shoots you with a high powered rifle!?" The problem lies with people driving dangerous vehicles around carelessly, we will never be able to adequetly armor ourselves against them without ruining our society."

"While I agree that these things will cause problems in the limited amount of bike lanes most cities have, I'm intrigued by the long term implications of more and more transportation happening in small vehicles to benefit from the current laws of bike lanes. Is this a step towards a future where the default vehicle is 1m wide, travels less than 40km/hr, and has pedals?! If 90% of cars/trucks were replaced with bikes or these things, there would be plenty of space for everyone on the roads, including the large trucks and wheelchair accessible vans that would still need to be there occassionally."

"Agreed, crowdfunding is risky, you never know if a company has the means to follow through with their goals. but the general tech behind this solid and super exciting. I saw a review of this product that certainly shows it's promise if they can deliver the same quality in production.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_S1d0AYW1s&ab_channel=JoshuaDeLisle"

"These look like Art Deco meets Starwars spaceships. Love it."

"If we're counting linoleum as plastic, then I'm pretty sure we have to count the seasoning on a cast iron pan as plastic, as well as potentially any rancid nuts and the crunchy cheese on the edge of your pizza crust.I'm not a chemist, but not all polymers are plastic in the common usage of "plastic""

"Also, they moved the pressure guage higher up, presumably to make it easier to read without it being too large."

"Are these just renders, or is AI involved here? It's certainly a lot of unique designs!"

"Honestly a phone with built in earbuds that recharge in the phone would be a great feature. I'm someone who usually loses the charging case before the earbuds, so it would help in that regard. Maybe don't put a screen on them though. the small watch screen/camera remote for a phone is also an interesting idea, and I guess they just combined the 2 ideas into one."
