Spokesman? Yea, I’m sure lots of people with financial interest in fossil fuels are just chilling on Gizmodo. No, just a person with common sense that see’s the reality. Clean renewable energy is great, but simply can’t provide for humanity needs yet.

This is what happens when you bum rush renewals and green energy and keep shutting down Nuclear and relatively clean natural gas plans. We need to go green, but not at the expense of an unstable power grid.

My companies main business is decommissioning/plugging Abandoned or orphaned oil and gas wells. The cost is covered by the Texas Railroad Commission from the funds they collect for every permit to drill that is issued. The problem with getting this done in a timely basis is because of the EPA. The various permits take…

Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli had reached a similar conclusion 30 years earlier.

Lithium and cobalt mining is to electric cars what fracking is,to gasoline cars, neither path is without cost and people who claim BEVs will “save the planet” are lying. Ultimately the way to save the environment is ride a bicycle instead of driving a car.

So many questions about passkeys that it seems to me way too early just go for them when there are no longer password backups:
1. What if you lose your primary device? How do you access your account to block the passkeys.
2. I daily use three different devices (Linux desktop, Android phone and an iPad) so how do my…

RIP Souplantation.

How about do it by GVWR.  The weight more than anything is the damaging part of the roads.  Incentivizing OEM’s to get lighter seems like a good move.  Also, moving people out of giant bro trucks seems like it might make sense.

Another good idea poorly executed. A better and more fair option would be to delete the gas tax and make both types pay a per-mile-driven tax based on weight and size. If you want to encourage ev adoption, keep the gas tax but call it a carbon tax and use those proceeds for healthcare.

I just don’t trust the state to not take more than they need. The last thing I need, is for my car to go down to 20% battery and then an emergency happens to where I have to leave perhaps to someplace far during that bi-directional time. (I’ve already had to evacuate 3 times before several years ago due to fires)

Now I’m not a doctor, but I have a cat, so I know a little something about biology. My vet told me this cat would be healthier and happier if I had him neutered, so I did, and goshdarn if he isn’t just the sweetest, most contented little guy now. Mike Pence seems very agitated, and I can’t help thinking, based on my…

Fucking idiot. Should Ford and Ford Dealerships be liable for drunk driver carnage?

Can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs /s.
But in all seriousness, I don’t think the die-hard EV proponents have the stomach for what it’s going to take to meet these ludicrous goals countries keep committing to.  

Actually the defense can file a motion to dismiss regardless of the other pending motions. Citing any evidence submitted during discovery when doing so. At which point most judges would look at the massive list of games that have been ignored including massive titles like monster hunter and throw it out with prejudice.

This is going to be a pretty easy win for Glowstick Entertainment:

Glowstick Lawyer: “Your Honor here is a list of every game that has used the word monster in their title before the existence of Monster Energy and a list of every game released during the time that Monster energy has had the trademark. We motion for…

public transit (esp. light rail) works in urban centers where city planning was a priority. in many of today’s midsize (or larger) cities, social constraints took priority in the recent decades & worked to separate communities in various (unsociable) ways. that makes building new rail lines & transit centers extremely…

We need better biking infrastructure in all cities and burbs. Bikes are dangerous in heavy pedestrian areas, but they’re also put in danger when riding along with traffic, especially in the US. There are a relatively high number of bike riders in my area, but the streets are in no way able to accommodate them. They…

To obviate the need for extra equipment, and to allow launches from a helipad or possibly smaller, the STRIX is a tail-shitter.

Cities can change. We don’t have to keep making car ownership mandatory. I love cars but I hate commuting in them.

I found the science lab trick works outside the science lab. In lab you use a stirring stick on the edge of a beaker to prevent splashing.
