Axel π΄π·π§πͺβ¨ | #WeAreNatenomAuf meinem Weg zurΓΌck vom #slowUp #Seetal mit dem Brompton, bin ich zufΓ€llig bei einer #CityEL / #MiniEL Werkstatt am #Hallwylersee vorbeigekommen. Eine richtige CityELmania!
@jettacat: Yay for the #CityEL / #MiniEl!
@bleeptrack and myself both own one. π
@isziaui @bleeptrack: Hey, cool, two other #CityEL owners in the Fediverse!
Here's mine, nicknamed "ObriEL" and old enough to be born as #MiniEl.
Unfortunately the #magicsmoke came out when I tried to figure out why it doesn't charge. π (Took it over without documentation on any of the modifications from the legacy of a late friend, @Obri, hence also its nickname. So in case anyone knows CityEL repair shops in Switzerland accepting CityELs of unknown stateβ¦)
@Downshift: Such data collection and misuse is one of the reasons why I love my #2CV. It hasn't any electronics ex factory. The only electronics in it are the gadgets I have added myself. It has no AI, no cameras, no ears. Maybe a soul, though. π (And I do say that as an IT guy. An IT security guy, though, including occupational paranoia. π)
Oh, and not even my #EV has such crap. But it's an #oldtimer, too, as it's a #MiniEL/#CityEL from the early '90s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CityEl
@kkarhan @dadamsda: Japp, der Zwang zu #eCall ist auch bei der Grund, kein modernes Auto mehr zu kaufen.
Mein #2CV hat ab Werk keine Elektronik. Nur Elektrik. (Und wenn man von dem bis auf die Kabelenden einfarbig grΓΌnem Kabelbaum π mal absieht, ist sogar die Elektrik noch recht nachvollziehbar.)
Und selbst mein β momentan leider defektes β E-Auto(chen), das #ObriEL, hat so ScheiΓ nicht. Es ist ein #MiniEL/#CityEL aus den frΓΌhen 90ern: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/CityEL π
