Interesting. I don't have a car any more and no kids, but my friends that do always tell me their kids need more breaks than the electric car. And I always found that I need breaks every 2-3 hours anyway to keep the alertness high. I can't imagine going 400 miles in one go.

and often 800 miles in a day (takes about 13-14 hours driving)

Oh wow. After my last trip that was supposed to take like 9 hours and ended up more like 12, I decided to never do that to myself ever again. But I guess if you have multiple drivers that can share the burden, such along day on the road is still an option.

Overly dramatic I'd say. I would have liked less movement of the drone to be able to better judge the movement of the rocket.

I absolutely loved that game.

I'd rather force safety requirements on all cars. Like limiting blind spots at the front and everywhere else, limiting speeds of vehicles above certain weights, increasing license requirements for vehicles that have higher safety impact etc.

Hydrogen has its place, and we need plenty of it in places where we don't have viable alternatives. Road transport is pretty far down that list though.

And don't forget that the plants are really expensive. Having them produce very little or even no power for half the time doesn't help that at all.

Thermal storage needs to be quite large though, at least with the stone/brick like mass they used back then. And you need to isolate it, otherwise you have no control over the release of that stored heat. I wonder if new materials, maybe something that undergoes phase change in that temperature range, could be a lot more space efficient.

I don't know how remote your mountains are, here there would likely be a charge point less than 50km away but I don't know where you drive. I give you that.

Your second point though, you might want to reconsider your driving habits. Random google result for breaks when driving: "If driving long distances, you should stop for at least 15 minutes every two hours. Stop often to rest for at least 45 minutes every 4.5 hours of driving to avoid getting tired and stay alert. Plan to stop for a break every 100 miles on your long road trip so that you can relax. Try to only drive for 9 hours a day."

How so, I'm curious? Do you drive into no mans land hundreds of miles away from civilization or are you a robot that never needs to take a break?

At least it doesn't look like chocolate stuff, always great to get those turning white because they baked in mid summer heat.

wie man einen bunt blühenden Garten mit Hummeln und Schmetterlingen, Singvögeln, Eichhörnchen und Igeln hässlich finden kann

Fände ich super, bisher ist der Versuch bei mir aber immer in einem Dickicht aus Disteln geendet. Die schöne Blumenwiese hält leider nur 2 Monate oder so, danach ist Ende. Und im nächsten Jahr muss man komplett umgraben um der Blumenwiese diese 2 Monate überhaupt zu ermöglichen. Was ja für einen gesunden Boden auch eher kontraproduktiv ist.
