With predominantly regenerative braking, the actual brakes on an EV are barely used. This is yet another reason to drive EVs.

Quite frankly, the agencyâ(TM)s decision buggers belief.

This sounds completely reasonable to low information GOP and undecided voters who don't know anything about how Congress, laws, delegation, federal agencies, regulation, or courts work. Thanks for parroting those talking points.

Thanks for the breakdown, Justice Roberts!

Because some of us enjoy not being robbed.

College students def have 20m / 30m per week to charge an EV. (Source, did college, had plenty to study, would have been happy to have a Tesla).

Disastrously incompetent Republican mismanagement of the isolated Texas grid for graft and corruption, is not a legitimate reason to avoid buying electric vehicles. Itâ(TM)s a reason to investigate. Stop electing them and watch modern infrastructure get built that benefits everyone, just like every other modern economy, instead of state funds funneled to the well-connected in a sham public-private partnership. Fortunately most EVs arenâ(TM)t charging during maximum AC demand in the afternoons.

It makes no sense to complain of a poor record of development for an agency that routinely has massive arbitrary budget cuts and priority redirection. If someone cut your budget by half every four to eight years, and rearranged your long-term tasks, you would have less productivity, too.

When Ellsberg leaked the Pentagon papers, and the NYT had the stones to publish articles about them, it showed that the US Government had been lying to Americans for decades about Vietnam. It showed that the Pentagon didnâ(TM)t think we could win the Vietnam War - at least not within the parameters it was permitted by the Executive branch trying to avoid nuclear war with China, which stood in stark opposition to public press releases expressing confidence in American victory over communism in Vietnam. The Pentagon Papers showed that tens of thousands of Americans had died fighting an un-winable war for political reasons. No President had wanted to take responsibility for loosing, and admit to the American people that there were limits to what they could achieve in the Cold War. Thatâ(TM)s why journalists since have been cautious and critical of official government accounts, and time and again, their skepticism has been rewarded.

Should say, ^hope the AI can pick up SVC syndrome.

Itâ(TM)s probably a statement that comes from the experience that women have with breast radiologists, who also biopsy the lesions they find, discuss really difficult diagnoses & options, and may come to care for them longitudinally. Many radiologists perform image guided procedures, but breast radiologists typically have the most regular, ongoing care of women in breast cancer screening and cancer treatment. That being said, your local hospital would grind to a halt without image guided biopsy, drains, line placement, and therapy performed by both interventional and diagnostic radiologists. Robots arenâ(TM)t here for that yet, even if an AI can pick up a lesion on a study without too much motion or artifact. Hope the IR can also reliably catch SVC syndrome on the mammogram, because you need to look for other problems beyond cancer on any imaging study.

The whole world needs better oligarchs, and for Musk in particular to focus on his societal improvement businesses and not giving aid and comfort to fascists. Unfortunately for all of us, if Musk read Marcus Aurelius he certainly didnâ(TM)t take him to heart, with glimpses of Caligula slipping through.

If the did FBI undermine Trump and help Biden, it would have been doing their jobs since Trump was & is a full-on Russian asset that a third of the country was too dumb to see - blinded by admiration of his racism.

Thereâ(TM)s a big difference between a few people sending encrypted files with a cumbersome workflow and imperfect operational security, and all of gmail being encrypted. I would expect a back door in any large corporate encryption product, post 9/11.

Does anyone believe Google wonâ(TM)t be able to read gmail? I donâ(TM)t believe it. Would NSA, FBI & CIA let google loose access to gmail, even if google wanted to implement not trivially breakable encryption?

My understanding is that recycling contractors often sell the plastic overseas, where it is burned. By burying it, you prevent that carbon from entering the atmosphere or oceans. Besides, we want trees to live as long as possible to absorb as much carbon as possible.
