I’ve decided to just ignore battery hype and tune back in when it’s time to swap out my house battery in 5-10 years. Hopefully some of the vaporware will have actually materialized in the market by that time.

I’m happy for a new streetcar line that is almost done in my area. My happiness is pretty pathetic and sad.
This is what most of the schools around my area installed a couple years ago:
I guess when/if I buy another car, I’ll look into gov’t fleet auctions.
Remember when gov’t banned Furbies (sp?) in some places? Seems like they would make the same decision for a lot of people in important positions regarding their car purchasing.
That was hilarious.
I’m OK with grants for certain things/times/whatever. But it seems like if the owner is worth billions and comes to the gov’t for a handout, the gov’t should just tax them correctly and say,“No you.”
Just Doctorow’s enshitification in action.
That’s fair. Can’t seem to build big things either. Or maintain what we have. High speed rail. Roads and Bridges. Basically all infrastructure. And of course the major issues that hold back the entire society. Cost of education, healthcare, housing, transportation. These are all reasons for my statement that we can’t get our shit together. Aside from not being able to efficiently build cheap electronic consumer goods.
The US just can’t seem to get its act together. And the near/mid-term isn’t looking better.
They’re the airplane manufacturer in the US at that scale. There is zero chance the gov’t will let them fail.
If Boeing stock drops another $30 or so, I’m going to have to buy some.
If you’re taking that shitty truck, from early reports, you aren’t going to anywhere hardcore. Maybe the park down the street.
I read somewhere that with the Hindinburg, the hydrogen pretty much just went straight up, while most of the deaths and burns were caused by the fuel for the engines.
Thanks, that was my first thought.
This is an idea I had never even thought about before. I like it. I’m going to ponder it for a few days in my slow way.
That was my first thought. Dude that had the surgery seeing this and just thinking,“What the fuck, man?”
I’m pretty sure there are a couple motorcycle helmets out there with a built in HUD. There are after market ones that you can add to your existing helmet that seem pretty cool to.
Oh man, I had not thought about the time Republicans thought they’d just shoot the Chinese Ballon out of the sky in many months.
Anyone who wasn’t around then can’t really know what they missed.
