It's weird because I watched a Youtube video the other day where some guy who has a long-established UK car channel had collected all the registration data from DVLC for EV sales in the UK and showed that they'd dropped significantly in 2025.

Is this a case of classifying hybrids as EVs or something?

[sarcasm] Of course it can. Also cranial measurements are reliable indicators.[/sarcasm]

You think Democrats are going to run on an open "Send all your jobs to China!" platform?

That really only works for cars at least maybe 10-15 years old. Newer cars are packed so full of electronics and other complex hardware that can't be repaired that they're simply not going to last very long; once the manufacturer stops selling those parts, the car will be scrap once one of them breaks.

That's a trick question.

Answer: None. In 2025, Everything's Computer.

If nothing else they should not be allowed to call themselves a bank, including not a "trust" bank. Stick with crypto exchange or hascode pawnshop or whatever but not bank.

Omitting the camera saves the consumer the minor cost of having to use up a square inch of electrical tape.

That's insane! Sign me up and ship me out.

When I was a kid, we were going to run out of oil by the year 2000 and nuclear fusion was only twenty years ago.

Now we have governments telling us we can't burn all the oil we still have because of the dreaded CO2 and fusion is still only twenty years away.

All these forecasts are nonsense.

We reduced our usage of coal by sending our manufacturing jobs to China where they run their factories on... coal.

It's almost like the Chinese bribed our governments to ban coal so the crooks in power could justify sending those manufacturing jobs to China.

I'm just old enough to remember when we were heading into a New Ice Age. Of course, Millennials tell me that never happened, but since I lived through the New Ice Age scare I know it did.

It's all been nonsense all my life. If you check even older newspapers you find "Climate Change" scams going back a hundred years or more. If it's hot, we're going to melt down, if it's cold we're going into a New Ice Age.

Bill Gates no longer cares about "climate change" because AI is the new hotness.

You can't build massive numbers of new power plants if you're banning CO2 because of your last round of scare stories.

Really? You think at this point SpaceX is just going to throw up its hands and say "never mind" on Starship? I'm trying to imagine why they would do that.

I think you're right. If he thought he knew anything - in either direction - he'd be all in. Instead he's just throwing his hands up.

My only guess is drugs.
