I understand that not only bread gets cheaper when everything gets cheaper.

2019-05-30 17:19:04 UTC  

Thanks.

2019-05-30 17:20:01 UTC  

Yes 200+ miles is very far, plenty for most people.

2019-05-30 17:20:24 UTC  

Electric cars still have a long way before becoming viable, and an improvement over gasoline based.

2019-05-30 17:20:53 UTC  

I said when people drive teslas bread doesn't get cheaper, Mandatory.

2019-05-30 17:21:59 UTC  

Why would bread prices be affected by electric cars.

2019-05-30 17:22:23 UTC  

Mandatory's argument is when fuel prices are cheaper for shipping, everything gets cheaper for consumers.

2019-05-30 17:22:24 UTC  

And why is that a conversation first off.

2019-05-30 17:22:29 UTC  

LOl

2019-05-30 17:22:31 UTC  

Ah.

2019-05-30 17:22:44 UTC  

Backlog of chat up above.

2019-05-30 17:22:57 UTC  

Basically he's saying yea when trucks don't have to pay for fuel, products will be cheaper.

2019-05-30 17:23:09 UTC  

Uh.

2019-05-30 17:23:14 UTC  

Fuel is fuel.

2019-05-30 17:23:18 UTC  

Or when the fuel is cheaper

2019-05-30 17:23:23 UTC  

Whether it's gas or electric.

2019-05-30 17:23:30 UTC  

You are paying for a particular product of travel regardless.

2019-05-30 17:23:48 UTC  

He's talking alternative, like, who knows what, anything besides liquid fuel and electricity

2019-05-30 17:24:00 UTC  

idk his argument entirely, seems magical to me.

2019-05-30 17:24:20 UTC  

The only shizz we got is gas, electric, and hydrogen which is largely pre-prod.

2019-05-30 17:24:29 UTC  

Lol.

2019-05-30 17:24:41 UTC  

well there's diesel

2019-05-30 17:24:42 UTC  

but yeah

2019-05-30 17:24:46 UTC  

True.

2019-05-30 17:26:20 UTC  

At the end of the day battery technology is severely lacking, and to sustain high doses of electricity we will have to opt in towards other methods. In my opinion, that will go way of nuclear, or fusion (when that becomes viable).

2019-05-30 17:27:01 UTC  

Yea i don't see electric 18wheelers being very effective

2019-05-30 17:27:35 UTC  

Agreed.

2019-05-30 17:27:37 UTC  

I have no doubt that electric will *one day* surpass gasoline or diesel, but that's far off into the horizon.

2019-05-30 17:27:55 UTC  

a loooong long time from now

2019-05-30 17:28:25 UTC  

Yearp.

2019-05-30 17:28:42 UTC  

I'm hoping to see major change before I die. That would be cool.

2019-05-30 17:28:58 UTC  

Rapid acceleration in technology, and other stuff.

2019-05-30 17:30:00 UTC  

That'd be fun

2019-05-30 17:31:33 UTC  

I don't know if you follow PC news at all, but the new CPU specs and prices dropped by AMD is hype.

2019-05-30 17:31:55 UTC  

I'm hoping it stimulates competition, and prices drops all around between them and Intel.

2019-05-30 17:32:39 UTC  

Yea unfortunately i upgrade my PC ever 5 years or so, and got a new cpu a year ago

2019-05-30 17:32:56 UTC  

so i don't get to benefit from it immediately

2019-05-30 17:33:06 UTC  

and i spent more than i should have lol

2019-05-30 17:34:42 UTC  

I'm right there with you. I'm still rocking an i7-3770k CPU from Intel, and a GTX 970 from Nvidia. The 3770k was released back in 2011 IIRC, and I bought it in 2013. The GPU I won for free at a gaming LAN in Oregon 5 years back.

2019-05-30 17:34:50 UTC  

I'm hoping to do a new build by the end of the year.
