Could you release the already captured images for him to take to a doctor for medical advice?

Short answer: no

Long answer:

In scientific terms, the glow comes from chemical reactions within our bodies. These chemical reactions besides generating energy and producing heat also produce free radicals – atoms or molecules that have a lone, isolated electron. That makes these radicals highly reactive setting off a series of energetic chemical reactions as they interact with various fats and proteins in our cells. The glow is produced when these reactions involve fluorophores – molecules that give off photons (elementary particles of light).

You make less than $2.13 an hour, the federal minimum tipped wage?

Energy is volatile, there's only so much that can be done. Not every single fire is one that can be prevented beyond just not getting in the car in the first place (i.e. giving people a reasonable alternative via well maintained and affordable public transport.)

There's only so much safeguarding you can do against the basic physics of storing enough high voltage energy to drive laps around your hometown in such a relatively small and locomotive package as an EV battery.

Yes, battery fires will happen sometimes, most frequently in an impact like this one, and they will burn long and hot until all the energy (fuel) is expended. The same thing would happen if you were to set a tank of gas on fire, since gas is another store of energy if a bit less volatile than live electricity. I am certain you will find examples of this with any EV OEM. That is why it is important for the occupants to be able to escape the vehicle, should that ever occur.

Fuck Tesla, their cars all suck squirrel nuts, the cybertruck most of all. All I'm saying is that a few battery fires involving an impact making the news does not prove there's a statistically anomalous amount of battery fires with a particular brand.

Yes, Capitalism is a big conspiracy involving the capitalist class conspiring against the working class. Look at their class interests. They are and have always been quietly waging a class war.

Two pet theories I have about this

  1. it is profitable for big chemical companies and whatever lobby makes the lawnmowers and weed whackers for everyone to have these big lawns that need to be maintained via mowing and pesticides. There are breeds other than bluegrass that don't grow that tall, chiefly buffalo grass, with deeper roots that make it generally more healthy, less patchy, less susceptible to weeds, etc.

  2. It is convenient for the ruling class that we have to do all this maintenance individually, leaving us less time (and wealth) to organize and build community/alternative modes of governance. Divide and conquer and all that.

OK I lied here's a 3rd:

  1. Western society is pretty much defined by our need to control nature/the world around us in outright denial of any consequences that might arise from doing so.

The first one is positive.

Sure, after you count the 24 downvotes

The second is zero, so probably 1 downvoted

Nope, 3 to 3

The third if you notice the comment you replied to is positive and implying Biden supports genocide

yet another instance of being massively downvoted but ultimately positive by 2 to 3 points

The only thing you've proven is that it is controversial enough for just as many people to upvote as have downvoted, your viewer just only shows the net result. Try viewing these in the browser for a more accurate assessment.

Other EV brands have handles that work when the battery goes haywire.

Trump doesn't support them because he got his ego bruised when they wouldn't give him dirt on Biden and his "perfect phone call" got leaked to the press. Before this phone call, Trump did support them, which is why he even had aid to withhold as an extortion mechanism. Also, Trump wants Putin to be his buddy. Also, this is the same deal Biden put up months ago (with Ukraine having lost ground in the war since then), Trump is just far less cordial about it.

The US is always two-faced about its foreign policy, which is to pretend to be an ally for as long as it takes to get smaller nations into predatory deals at their weakest and forcing them to give up the very resources they would need to pay us back. This is what it looks like to be a vassal state for the US, which seems to be what Zelensky wanted from the jump if we look at the facts of the situation. As the saying goes; live by the sword, die by the sword.

Unfortunately the war has come far enough that to not accept this deal is to subject Ukranians to even more death and destruction at Russian hands. It's the only way out for Ukrainian sovereignty. Zelensky knows it. Trump knows it. Putin knows it.
