Then you should perhaps read more news sites that are battery related?

so you have to massively cut into your hauling capacity which completely screws up the logistics of the trucking industry.
Not every county is as big as yours.

And every country has a "trucking industry" ... or a cross border trucking industry where the two capitals are only one track haul away from each other.

You know, Gods own Country of Awesomeness, is so backyard, unbelievable. No worries. Rest assured, you are not alone. Germany is the same. Both countries run long distance trucks mostly on Diesel. Germany slowly switching to electric.

Thailand? Running on nat gas. Since ... 20 years? Feels like forever ...

New buses in Thailand are all electric. It is only a matter of a few years that all new trucks are electric, too.

The disorientation goes away for most people after ~1-2 weeks, but yeah, you have to be really committed to the product. I am very resistant to motion sickness but I recall a couple times in the first month where I was in some ultralight airplane sim (like pilotwings type thing) and looking down while banking sharply and almost threw up.
 
Mass consumer VR is a fucking dumb idea though, I'm stunned apple was still shipping hardware updates, they must have contracted for a million of the displays or something and were hoping they could limp across the finish line without sending too many off to the landfill.

Comment Montesano wrote the studies (Score 1) 81

Montesano wrote the studies, and the most cited study by the EPA and other departments, that found that the chemical didn't cause any cancer.

Meanwhile, studies by labs not linked to Montesano found that the chemical was a probable cause of cancers.

This is what isn't being discussed in this Supreme Court case. Whether or not the label is accurate, and it is. Sad that they get caught up in the procedural, and on the company side rather than with science, and on the consumer side.

Glyphosate most likely is causing cancer in people.

The "free market" is only allowed to work if (for example) small bakery shops run by grandma and grandpa compete with each other, until one files bankruptcy - so it can be bought up by the big chain who owns already 43% of the bakeries in town ... or by the other chain that owns 41% ... or best case: by the guy who owns 7 shops and now is lucky enough to buy shop number 8.

No worries: that little business will be soon out of business, too.

In Germany, there is a side effect, as the Gas price influences the market.
But the over all price is different, and not based on gas. It mostly affects hour ahead of as ahead prices.
Households are not really affected.
Since the British exited the European market, they have their own price issues.
