Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Arguing for the car as a good method of transportation is like arguing that having personal diesel generator to power you home is a good idea
3·1 month agoI do agree entirely, I also live in a very car dependant country and traveling is very complicated for me because I refuse to use a car.

13·1 month agoYes I do agree, I do not think all cars should be destroy right this moment, but the reliance on cars in our current society can be greatly decreased via proper public transportation just like the reliance on diesel generators (on the society level) is negligible because of our electric system.

22·1 month agoNo my problem is not with the diesel generator, I wanted to contradict the individualistic approach to transportation in our current society with the collectivistic approach of something like our energy grid.
There was another example with septic tanks vs plumbing. You can say the same for drilling wells vs again plumbing I guess.
Solar microgrids are very interesting technology in particula and very positive again because you can connect and coordinate them collectively with you neighbors for example. With the added benefit of flexibility and resilience the current grid doesn’t have.

34·1 month agoYes, but one system is destructive, polluting and shifts the cost of transportation on the individual. So one system is clearly better here. That is why no one (ok very few people) who have electrified house or apartment decides “you know what I will need a diesel generator”.

33·1 month agoRenting a car is more expensive than owning?
Edit: Let me clarify, renting car for the days you need it or even hourly is no way more expensive than owning one. Except if you use it for work, and that is not going to work but working trades for example like restoring second hand furniture.
