NGOs don't "fail miserably" - their actual goal is laundering tax money, and they very much do succeed!

California PG&E charges an average of $0.45/kWh. They know EVs are going to increase demand. They killed NEM1 and NEM2 to prevent folks from installing solar, and those with solar have to pay a monthly fee for the privilege of being connected. Heat pump my a$$.

Elon: buys some TSLA TSLA: wheeeee!!!! Shorts: oh sh!t, damage control now! Opinion piece writer: here, thx for the dough! NBCs and Reuters: posted, thx for the dough! HNs and Reddits: thx for engagement!

Nothing newsworthy has actually happened, we're just feeding the trolls in shorts, and sending the clicks to justify the dough.

We grind away to keep the body supplied and satiated.

A transcended/uploaded mind won't have the earthly needs and would be a lot cheaper to maintain, leaving it to achieve otherwise impossible results.

CA didn't need EV credits to help electrification, could just waive 10% sales tax on EVs...

Yes, Model 3 charging works out about the same sa fuelling a Prius C.

One would think solar is the answer given such price per kWh. PG&E have lobbied for NEM3 and got it, to make rooftop solar less viable, look that up!

Nope. Returned my Subaru after the lease because of that "stepped program": CVT emulated slushbox shifting instead of keeping optimal RPM. Stupid.

Toyota hybrid works like a proper CVT and is not infuriating.

One-pedal driving EVs make perfect sense too.

The article says nothing about protecting the license checks from being disabled. That's the secret sauce in a few companies, they do really interesting work.

UK calls speed cameras "safety cameras"

So, please, "Average safety cameras" and they don't help when someone's not paying attention
