A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

They should build ev charging stations with a drive in theater so you can watch a movie as you're charging up to continue your road trip (lemmy.world)

I don’t think this really caught on because not everyone takes care of their batteries to the same degree. Frequently charging to 100% or draining to 0% has some negative impacts reducing range and performance. You’re likely to receive one of these used batteries in your car with a swap.

Imagine doing an engine swap on an ICE vehicle with a used one that never had an oil change.

But you could swap whenever. Bad battery? Swap it.

The real difficulty is making the process work across multiple vehicles, making it safe and making it less of a pain than DC charging.
