It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Cybertruck battery is around 123 kilowatt hours. Your average fridge takes 4 kilowatt hours over the course of a day.

Theoretically one cybertruck with enough extension cords and splitters, could power a handful of fridges for a couple days. Power fans or small AC units. And still have enough to get back to it charging station.

It's better than nothing, but you're also adding to the burden of rescue workers in the area. They already have to feed and take care of the residents, they don't want to have to take care of people providing mobile batteries.

If you live within a couple dozen miles of the affected areas it might be useful. Any farther than that and you're just going to be a burden.

I totally agree it's impractical.
