The cars had more accidents, probably because some were not used to the speed or would get an EV just to test the speed. Why buy Tesla in that case then, when their repairs are known to be super expensive and slow? Then you had people who are not used to EVs and charging trying to use EVs and the companies themselves didn't build the charging infrastructure so customers left with a full battery, but that has nothing to do with reliability. Vehicle depreciation? Again, a Tesla problem because they sold them the cars at a high price before dropping prices (the covid years were very weird).
So again, what makes EVs unreliable? It's a simple question.
What's unreliable on a modern EV? And what do you mean by "long life", because you now have 10-15 year old EVs that are fine.
Obviously some cars aged poorly, like some Tesla which had poor build quality (not an EV problem, but a company problem) or cars like the Nissan Leaf that didn't have battery cooling for years, but what's exactly unreliable on a modern Polestar or a Hyundai?

If I come here and tell you that I'm going to reduce expenses and debt while reducing taxes and also investing massive amounts of money to improve the military, healthcare, etc, something should go off in your head because it doesn't add up.
Voting for someone promising unrealistic things is no different from going into a dark alley in what you know is a rough neighborhood. A victim is still a victim, but grown ups must own up to their actions... and there's no other way of saying this: what you did was fucking dumb. It's even dumber if you do the same dumb thing twice.
The list I can see on the site seems to be of tools you can self host or can help you create something that you can self host. That's it. It doesn't make sense to blame a site because a comment on HN didn't correctly describe the content of the website... like, the problem is the comment, not the site.
uBlock Origin is open source, very efficient, and seems to be well regarded around these parts.
It's a bit like the UK demanding that Apple gave them access to user data of all customers worldwide. Apple correctly told them no and stopped offering end-to-end encryption to UK users.
> You can't charge them within five minutes like you would load up a traditional car.
Nothing to do with reliability.
> Battery starts to lose range. Even more so in extreme temperatures.
Yes, you lose ~20% of range if it's snowing or very cold. Is this a reliability issue?
> Battery replacement is super expensive. In that amount you can get your engine rebuilt multiple times over.
It is very expensive, but batteries are not failing. Again, we now have 10-15 year old cars on the road without battery problems.
