A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Makes me wonder when battery theft will become a thing.
They weight like half a tonne. It's unlikely to become common.
Maybe as common as ATM machine thefts that do happen rarely.
But they're not worth nearly as much.
Easier just to steal the car at that point
The batteries literally weighs a ton, so that means they'd have to steal the whole car first then part it out. Just like any other chop shop parts crime.
Too heavy, too integrated into the design. Might as well worry about people stealing your transmission or rack & pinion (TFW: that's what your car uses to translate 'turning the wheel' into turning the wheels).
