There must be a way to retrofit vehicle to grid on old Teslas. Let them pay your electricity bill.

Can you plug it in and also deplete the battery at a similar rate somehow? Like an infinite money drain on Tesla?

I'm sure the impact to climate change would be canceled out by the loss in profit to a Nazi billionaire. But I'd have to do some math.

Maybe we hack together a device that just drains power and tricks the chargers into thinking it's your car. Use the power consumption to do something like mine crypto and send it to a charity. Idk. Just brainstorming shit lol

A simple one would be to power your PC off the car and just let it sit. Mine some crypto for free on Elon's dime.

Fuck this Nazi PoS.
