  The price of diesel is now effectively £2/litre so it costs about £140 to fill my tank which at 46mpg gives me a range of 700 miles: 20p/mile Assuming an average electricity cost of 26p/kWh and a Polestar 2 with efficiency of 287 Wh/mi, that's about 7.5p/mile. The cost of fuel and maintenance on the fully depreciated 'bangernomics' ICE car is now heavily outweighed by the EV savings, even with a higher purchase price. Trump is doing a great job killing the oil industry long term...

  I am intending to get a JR Pass. Anyone want to dissuade me from that? Haven't done the calculations in depth, but from reading Seat61 it seems I'll get most of the value back from the few long distance Shinkansens (up and down the country), so any savings buying individual tickets will be marginal.

  🇯🇵 I am visiting Japan in May. Fedi is definitely keen on the country, so I am soliciting recommendations and suggestions for things to visit. I do not have a specific itinerary, but I do have a map, the mandatory Lonely Planet and probably a JR pass. All ideas gratefully received :blobbowing:

  TfL has stopped my Oyster. I do not know why or what I do about this (they've sent me no emails); I seem to have a £1.20 negative balance but I'm unable to top up now. The app doesn't even show me the card is stopped! 10/10 user experience.

  We are pleased to announce that the phones supplied by Øl Telecom at #eh23 have been successfully installed in not one, but two hackspaces!
