I’m kidding, of course. I’d probably just waste it on something dumb(er).
I can already hear “The mainstream media is playing tricks on us to keep us from enjoying ourselves by [insert any dumb shit like rolling coal or something]“
Odd train of thought: what would the rolling coal equivalent be for an EV? Just wasting fuel for something that looks cool... So high voltage discharge under the car shooting lightning bolts? That actually sounds kinda cool, now that I think about it, but it is wasteful.
