Electric heat is not always 99.9% efficient, resistive heating is.

Heat pumps are more than 100% efficient(compared to resistive heating)

It's not bs, because we are moving heat, not creating it. You thinking it is bullshit will not change the laws of thermodynamics. Try to think about it this way.

"Cold" is a made up human concept, it really is a lack of heat energy. The coldest is 0K, but even a Midwest winter is waaaaaay above that. Heat pumps (and all refrigerant-based systems) work by changing the phase of the refrigerant from liquid to gas to cool, or by compressing a gas to a liquid. This phase change takes energy from the surrounding air (think about computer duster, the can gets cold) and then pipes it inside, where it can be compressed to release the heat it just picked up from outside. In the summer you flip the reverse switch to cool your house.

Here is an explanation from someone much more eloquent than myself:https://youtu.be/7J52mDjZzto?si=sYlNlpvGnJs16lwk

I bought a 2002 Honda insight. One of the first hybrids, except the electric motor went out, so it's all gas now. Still got slapped with an extra $150 so called "hybrid tax" so the state can subsidize a lower usage of gas that they would have received tax on. Literally incentivizes gasoline vehicles. What the fuck?

No, they decided both were bad. It wasn't until 1935 that male nips were legal to open-carry

It's almost like there is an AstroTurfed campaign to get people to lose confidence in electric vehicles by talking about batteries, even though most first generation Prius batteries are doing just fine.

I absolutely think biden's too old, but in this specific clip it kind of seems like he is making fun of Trump's "I am the least racist person ever" response.

Why are you arguing on behalf of a company? Why use the word unlimited if it is not unlimited?

This leads me to believe I'm either autistic or an asshole
