Have you ever used these? Often the weight is programmed wrong, so the item you put there is not recognized correctly, often it triggers falsely because something unexpected happened, they are generally a pain to use because the tolerance is set too low.
The proposed settlement would apply to people in the US who purchased all models of the iPhone 16 and the iPhone 15 Pro between June 10th, 2024 and March 29th, 2025.
People who submit qualifying claims can receive $25 for each eligible device, “which may decrease or increase up to $95 per device, depending on claim volume and other factors,” according to Clarkson Law Firm, the legal team behind the class action lawsuit.
They do take a cut. But they take a cut from the credit card company, not from the shop owner and not from you. The cut the shop owner has to pay is the same as with a „normal“ credit card payment.
So the fee is now shared between the credit card company and Apple/google (I don’t know how much, but I doubt it is 50:50)
how do you come to the conclusion that we do not have enough electricity in 2030 to charge all new EV cars? We are not talking about replacing ALL existing cars, it is only about newly bought ones.
how do you come to the conclusion that the grid will not be able to support that? The problem is that at the moment big investments into the energy grid are being stalled. But this is not a hard „it can not be done“ but more a „we don’t want to do anything because big oil is telling us not to“
charging stations in small towns are usually not the point anyway. You want lots of high power charging at the highways (which are currently already a lot of and it will only increase over time, more so if the EV market share is growing more). Charging points in smaller towns are. Matter of political will of local politicians.
the myth of „you need a 20kw charging station at home or a EV will be useless!!“ is also not true. You can charge an EV just fine at a normal Schuko outlet. I am, in fact, doing that on my daily driver. You do not need any permissions at all.
yes, this is one valid concern. But again, we are not talking about today, but a few years from now.
and exactly why is this Not happening? Because there are no clear deadlines or guidances. If there is a law that you can not sell combustion engine vehicles after a certain date, trust me, the supply chains will adapt. But you MUST set a date and STICK TO IT. There is simply no other way to make this industry change course.
