An eye for an eye... Also there's really no need to defend a trillion dollar company. They can afford to pay people to do it.

If they asked you for unboxing proof, ask them for boxing proof. The sad reality is that for every corp seeking never ending "growth", there comes a time when the only way to increase profits is to screw over their customer base. Amazon was already exploiting warehouse workers, logistics...

Varies from design to design, you need to check specs. This is not typical operating condition. You're not even supposed to keep a TC in 'D' if you're stopping for more than a few secs - it should be shifted to 'N'. Sorry, but who taught you to drive like that? Doing this will lead to...

Drive a diesel manual, they have oodles of torque at idle to do this too. EV can produce XXX Nm of torque at stand still. But unless you give 100% accelerator, it's not actually producing XXX Nm, if it did that by itself, it would be catastrophic. EV cars try to replicate the behaviour of ICE...

Are you saying a stationary EV will climb a ramp without Accelerator input? While a Creep function can be implemented on any vehicle to aid in stop and go traffic, letting it use so much power that it can climb an incline by itself seems dangerous.

11 has worse performance than 10 I wouldn't trust such websites, just check on your own PC

Do both plugs have the same polarity?

If you're fine with the performance, why not just upgrade OS to Win 10? For occasional gaming, PS5 seems too expensive.

It would be great if this field were added to the sales post format. Gives no scope for misunderstanding assumed/implied testing warranty.

Torque converters produce maximum torque when wheel (output shaft) is stationary i.e @ 0 rpm, just like electric motors. That was what I was hinting at. Lack of toque is not the limiting factor in trains. There's very little traction (grip) between the metal wheel and the metal track and it is...

This. ICE has good highway efficiency + "unlimited" range, so is perfect for outstation trips. It's only in traffic that they are a problem: even with a small battery, the city mileage of a hubrid can go up drastically. If only EV systems could be retrofitted to existing ICE vehicles to make...

The demand vs supply ratio should be the limiting factor. When Swiggy/Zomato know all their DPs are already assigned, they should just show a message like they used to before saying no one is currently availalbe instead of pulling stunts like this. True, this business model is unsustainable...

This is the actual issue: promising a shorter ETA, then using AI to gaslight the customer, while fully being aware of how many active DPs are available in the area. If they stated a realistic ~60 minutes delivery time, they know we may not even place the order, so: they knowingly bait you with...

Also, the need for minimum bill value of ₹199 to get free delivery is too high if ordering simple South Indian breakfast for one or two people. Cheaper to pay the delivery charge

If you've read my previous thread, The Enshittification of Swiggy where I document how Swiggy's service took a downward trajectory with too few delivery personnel trying to fulfill too many orders resulting in multiple pickups, long delays and cold food, it's pretty much the same here, including...

I wanted to recharge my BSNL, but Amazon says BSNL is facing technical issue. Will check in the evening

Not sure why you are taking this so personally. Difference between owning EV vs ICE is exactly what OP asked in #2. You can easily sell an ICE scooter after 5-6 years of usage and get back a significant fraction of the initial investment. EV will inevitably have reduced range, and the cost of a...

Considering only the petrol vs electric running cost doesn't tell the full story. Here's some rough numbers: For the purchase cost of the Ather 450X, you can buy an Activa AND not worry about fuel for 3 years! Without the Battery Warranty Addon (7k), you will be spending most of the EV...

It should, LEDs don't need a lot of power. But for the same cost why not buy a 12V adapter?

Since you're well versed with Ather, could you please provide total running costs for 25k, 50k, 75k and 1 lakh km (vehicle cost + running cost + service cost + battery replacement if paying out of pocket) The break even point for ICE vs EV should include the cost of a replacement battery for...
