Ford stoppt E-Auto-Offensive https://www.t-online.de/finanzen/aktuelles/wirtschaft/id_101046280/ford-stoppt-e-auto-offensive-milliarden-abschreibung-und-aus-fuer-f-150.html wir glauben ganz dolle daran, heute in 10Jahren ein Verbrennerauto zu kaufen, dass wenn überhaupt wohl nur stark subventioniert einen Käufer finden wird, da alle (!!!) Plattformhersteller auf e-Modelle umgestellt haben, allein schon aus #EconomyofScale Begründungen kaum noch Verbrenner gebaut u. daher schweineteuer sein werden. Der deutschen Autoindustrie ist nicht zu helfen! Wer das aus vom Verbrenner-Aus unterstützt wird verlieren
Ford zieht Reißleine bei E-Autos: Milliardenverlust nach Tesla-Jagd

Mit Milliardeninvestitionen jagten die großen US-Autokonzerne Tesla hinterher. Doch die Elektroautos verkauften sich schlecht und brachten ihnen Verluste ein. Jetzt schlägt Ford einen neuen Kurs ein.

Ich kaufe generell nie neue #Smartphones, das ist eine Ansichtssache. Diese Website ist hierzu sehr nice

https://pixel-pricing.netlify.app

Sie betrachtet #Updates und berechnet die tatsächlichen Kosten des Kaufs eines Handys.

Ich hab nicht genauer geschaut, aber das #NothingPhone müsste auch vom Hardwarehersteller so lange #Firmwareupdates bekommen. Das geht ohne #EconomyOfScale leider nicht gut.

@CppGuy One word: #Tetraetyllead

IMHO it'll be inevitable that #Methanol #FuelCell-based #EV|s will be the future simply because:
1.#Lithium is scarce & expensive
2.#refueling will always be faster than #charging
3.#EnergyDensity of Methanol exceeds that of any #battery
4.#FussilFuel #Corporations can simply switchover pumps and flex their #EconomyOfScale and existing #Logistics to flood the market with cheap Methanol even if it has to be made 100% sustainable and without any fossil resources.
5.#EnergyStorage is another problem and #FuelCells can replace both #EmergencyPower systems running if #Diesel as well as the average #gasoline #generator.

Not to mention there needs to be #SystemChangeNotClimateChange and that necessitates way better #PublicTransport, regardless if #Trains, #Trams, #Trolleybuses or #FuelcellBuses (in that order)...

  • Otherwise shit won't change.

OFC what any #BEVs won't fix is the fact that most particle emissions are #tire #brake #dust...

  • And those are inherebtly unavoidable.unless we want to sacrifice #RoadSafety!
Is it possible that Apple TV & Netflix were always too good a deal for what we received? 🤔 Was the 'economy of scale' a mirage, or are these giants getting
greedy now? 📺💸 #StreamingThoughts #EconomyOfScale #SubscriptionShift #DigitalDilemmas 🔄🧐

@CelloMomOnCars EXACTLY!

What is known to work is to make #PublicTransport work...

Because even the most space-and resource-efficient low-occupancy vehicle will get sqashed by #EconomyOfScale a working #MassTransit system with #Buses, #Trams and #Metros can do without even changing much of it's core workings...

@tuxlife thanks Niel for sharing your thoughts. The question here is why #linux #oem cannot offer budget friendly laptops? I understand that they're mostly small-to-medium sized enterprise #sme which face the challenge of #economyOfScale in their business. However, in my humble opinion, I still believe that offering #entrylevel laptops by Linux oems are doable even with the #economic #constraints. It looks like that Linux OEMs are targeting #gamers and #graphic #designers with their offerings 🧐.

The ultimate example of an #EconomyOfScale is nature.

A mature natural system can be extremely productive and cost nothing but the energy to harvest.

#Permaculture teaches how to take advantage of nature's economy of scale.

(I figure, if you want to change the world, appeal to the people that make the world go around, which seems to be economists...🙄)

@straphanger Neighborhood schools were abandoned in favor of warehouse schools for thousands of kids at the edges of the town where land is cheap because #capitalism is everything. Can't provide local education if the only thing that matters is the faulty notion of #EconomyOfScale being applicable to #humankind
My kids couldn't bike to school even tho it was only 3 miles, as the #Midwest is openly hostile to #bikes and #pedestrians. I moved so I can walk but #Developers want to ruin this too.
