I don't think OP was dissing EVs, just noting that they, like other things, also use petroleum product for things other than fuels and some things that use fuels can't be easily replaced with EVs.

has pleaded guilty to lying to a federal agent
Former national security adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI and he got a pardon from the current President. If she doesn't have the political connections, this might cost just her some $$$ -- crypto or cash, they're not picky.

Submission + - It's Official: Scientists Confirmed What Is Inside Our Moon (sciencealert.com) 1
alternative_right writes: A thorough investigation published in May 2023 found that the inner core of the Moon is, in fact, a solid ball with a density similar to that of iron.
To figure it out once and for all, Briaud and his colleagues collected data from space missions and lunar laser-ranging experiments to compile a profile of various lunar characteristics. These include the degree of its deformation by its gravitational interaction with Earth, the variation in its distance from Earth, and its density.

Robinhood Markets is betting its Gen Z and millennial clientele are as eager to send out for delivery of a wad of cash
Um... Aren't the younger generations more prone to using electronic payments *rather* than cash?
Gen Z and the Future of Payments: Cards, Cash, and the Shift to Digital
See how Gen Z is transforming payments with a strong preference for digital wallets, contactless cards, and mobile payments over cash.
2024 Diary of Consumer Payment Choice (article has nice graph of payment types 2016-2023)
The findings also show a growing generational divide among those using cash versus electronic payments. Consumers younger than age 55 used cash for just 12% of payments in 2023, compared to 22% for those age 55 and older. Notably, for the first time in Diary history, cash was not the most-used instrument for smaller-value payments of $25 or less.

The second movie, Aliens, also didn't have the mood of the first movie, yet was still one of the best movies ever made (IMHO! of course). I don't think the feel of the original is necessary in sequels, and might even be so hard to recreate that it's borderline hubris to try.

.. when I feel like doing nothing and thinking the presence of the xenomorph is a coincidence.
I think that is the best attitude one can take. The "domestication" of the xeno is the weakest part of this TV series, but OTOH, the inclusion of all the new monsters is part of what makes A:E so fun. The classic xeno is just one monster among many, now.
