The offer was always about capacity rather than speed, something which is clearly desperately needed.

At least at one major auto maker, environmental and serious health concerns are outweighing its aesthetic appeal.

Are they going to stop making cars with huge front hoods which are hugely dangerous to pedestrians? Or stop marketing their cars as if they’re meant to be driven dangerously?

The whole premise was that they’re in danger and need to get to Canada to be safe (the bad guys don’t have passports I guess 🤷), but have to wait just before they cross the border for everyone to show up seemingly for no reason.

brb going to upload some fanfics as pdfs to S3 with not for public release in the title

As a brit I don’t see this being enforced in the UK. The gov would be too scared that trump or an ally would come to power and we can’t risk effecting the special welationship 👉👈

The video app, owned by a Chinese company, said it would let federal officials pick its U.S. operation’s board of directors, would give the government veto power over each new hire and would pay an American company that contracts with the Defense Department to monitor its source code, according to a copy of the company’s proposal. It even offered to give federal officials a kill switch that would shut the app down in the United States if they felt it remained a threat.

Yeah way before. I had a bit of a look through some announcements and couldn’t find it so I can’t say exactly when.

IIRC they changed the way they calculate the scores a few years ago, which generally increased the numbers you saw.

If you’re replacing your phone surely it’s better that it doesn’t come with the charger (from an environmental point of view), since you don’t have to ship it back and they don’t have to ship you a new one. And what does it matter if they’re on different ships? It would still be pretty much the same amount of emissions released, which is probably less than the amount needed to drive it to your house. Adding the extra packaging for two separate items isn’t great though, and I agree that as a customer it isn’t great to get less for the same price.

Clean-car sounds a lot like clean coal

Moroccanoil is an israeli company. The connection to Morocco is that they co-opted a Moroccan product and sell it under their name. There’s no reason to believe that their sponsorship would influence a potential Moroccan entrant.

Just to be pedantic, the dumb car tunnels (or Loop), are the weird thing elon “invented” to “solve” traffic and reduce competition for his cars for urban transport. This eventually became one tunnel in LA to get between elon’s house and office, and the dumb taxi tunnel in Las Vegas.

The hyperloop, where elon “invented” the vacuum train, is a separate thing that exists to distract from CAHSR, and elon didn’t want to work on himself because “he’s too busy”, and not because it’s effectively just a scam and won’t work, and most of the companies that started up to develop it have since gone bust.

They wanted to move and use thier car

Did they though? To some extent, yes. But most people just want to get places and will take whichever mode makes the most sense for that journey, and what a city invests in will make that mode make more sense for more journeys. There is also a portion of journeys that just won’t happen if they are too difficult.

Your last paragraph is tangential to what I said. It doesn’t disagree because it says something different. It’s also oversimplified in some ways and just wrong in others.

Beyond the fact that adding five more lanes would still leave you with a horribly inefficient transport system, you also ignore that externalities that you are exacerbating by doing so. You’re displacing thousands more people, worsening the division of communities, creating a lot of noise and air pollution, increasing car dependency etc

It’s an increase of 16%, not to a total of 16%.

You have to be insane to do either in New York.

It’s deadly in Florida because people drive around the barriers at level crossings. That won’t be a problem here because there won’t be any level crossings.

Anne Hidalgo, the mayor of Paris, is usually credited for it. It works in Paris because the official boundary is quite small compared to other cities, about 100km^2 containing 2 million people, whereas in Berlin the equivalent is almost 900km^2 and 3.5 million people. So the population that vote for her are almost exclusively urban dwellers whereas in Berlin the mayor has to appease suburbanites too.

Bad take. You couldn’t have pretty much any modern country without their previous problematic leader. You can learn just about them in history class and not honour them though statues.
