I am aware of that model. It assumes there are only two variables present in the system. There are things called confounding variables. If, for example, manufacturing capacity for EV's is limited by the supply of another critical metal such as cobalt, the demand for lithium will fall by reason of that constraint. Or if two presidential candidates declare they are bringing EV manufacturing capability back to the USA, Chinese manufacturers would be cancelling forward orders, and running down their stocks. After all, the US is their biggest market. As I said, there is only enough lithium around for 30% replacement of EV's, unless it can be got out of seawater economically. IIRC, 55,000 litres of seawater is needed to produce 1 kg of lithium. The average EV needs 60 kg. Thank you for the economics lesson, albeit unnecessary.

Advice already taken, before I started the thread. Show me where in my posts I say I attempted to argue with him.

Er - that is total lithium demand. Plus demand for other metals, such as copper, nickel, and cobalt. Let's not forget rare earths for magnets, such as neodymium and praseodymium. Lithium is not only going into EV's, which require 60 - 80 kg. It's also 2-3 grams in every phone battery. There's Tesla Powerwalls, and a few tonnes in every large capacity storage bank being used to back up solar or wind power.

I'm predicting ICE's will be around for another 30-50 years. There simply are not enough raw materials around for EV's to completely replace them, 30% at best. That may change as new mines come on stream, which usually takes 5-7 years. Mines don't have an indefinite life, so new mines are not necessarily increasing supply.

95 V power is 100% hydrocarbon, the Gasohol 95 is only about 0.5 baht dearer than 91.

Does your post embody the assumption most people will be recharging from rooftop solar? What is the data of percent people doing that now?

I have never seen those, presumably the Chinese have stuck with them as the cheapest to source. It's a bit hard to estimate their ampere hour capacity, and hence fire risk. Even at the low end of concentration, 15% sulphuric acid would not be doing anything good.

Please explain how a shop 50 meters further down the street had an amply supply of AUD, then. Thanks for the advice. I'd follow it if I thought it was useful.

Lead-acid batteries are used in vehicles. On average, they weigh 17 kg. The typical dry cell battery is composed of a zinc anode and a carbon cathode with a paste of ammonium chloride as the electrolyte. No acid present. An alkaline battery may leak alkali. It would not happen overnight. Batteries are stored energy. A dry cell battery is normally rated at 400 - 900 milliampere hours. Lithium batteries range from 5 - 100 ampere hours, or even more. Lithium batteries are much more of a fire risk because they contain lots more stored energy, and provide their own oxygen supply in the event they do catch fire. A lithium battery fire burns at 2700 C, I have never heard of a D-cell doing that.

If you can't be bothered reading the regulations on prohibited imports, I would say you got off lightly.

12 years, not there yet.

I am more comfortable here too. I guess my analytical mindset can't help being bewildered by strange behaviours.

I suspect the inflated values which Trump assigned to his properties will look even more inflated when they are the subject of a fire sale, either by Trump or James.

There are various strategies one can use to avoid the necessity for medication with gastric reflux. Every pill puts an extra burden on the kidneys and liver.

Nobody takes you seriously anymore, except the echo chambers that pass for trump supporters (AKA goobers ) on these threads.

I do find the Trump fanboy fantasies entertaining, such as the proposition Trump is somehow more popular. He's not popular with 30% of Republican voters. They are saying they will vote for Biden. He's not popular with Nikki Haley, who refused to endorse him. He's not popular with the unions or the military. The Drake event was amateurish. He's not popular with women, after crowing about overturning Roe vs Wade. Presumably he is not popular with campaign managers who have no money to campaign with, after he looted contributions to pay his legal bills. He obviously was not popular with the multiple grand juries who indicted him. He's been boasting about his wealth for years. Genuine billionaires keep their wealth under wraps. Trump's "wealth" is a house of cards, waiting for the first puff of wind. The fact he can't raise $450 million for the appeal bond speaks volumes. My guess is when Letitia James starts seizing properties, she will find quite a few with so much debt they will be a drop in a bucket.

Anyone who goes to a doctor once a week to have fingers up their bum IMO is enjoying the experience. Perhaps the OP does not realize these repeated tests make more money for the doctor, and also increase the risk of acquiring infections.

To me, it's just plain silly that posters think it is OK to not stock a currency, while advertising the availability of said currency on a large sign in the shop window.

It might be if i was a multi-millionaire. I suggest you read the findings of the Royal Commission into Aged Care in Australia, then you might understand better why I prefer Thailand.

Given the way Aussies wipe the floor with the Brits in almost any sport, and one-third of the UK's population, I'd say it's the Poms who have the inferiority complex.

I am wondering if the psychologist doing the brain scan would have found anything.

I think I get more exhausted from dodging snipers on ASEAN.

So you rely on your smartphone or a card for all your financial transactions? What happens if there's an computer outage, or your phone/card gets lost, stolen, or skimmed? Cash is accepted nearly everywhere, except for the richardheads who think it is vulgar and behind the times. I don't shop with people who have that attitude to customer service. You lose your card on the plane or whatever, you have no backup to pay a taxi to get you home. I don't know about financially literate, I do know I've never been stranded without money any time I moved around.

Biden is smart enough to not have to part with $83 million, unlike Trump, who did not have the sense to keep his mouth shut. Is there anything dumber than Trump going back to a judge who he attacked, to ask for a bond reduction, because he could not raise $450 million for the appeal?
