Re: Electric + Human-Powered Vehicles
This sounds seriously impressive:
With a sleek exterior, impressive spec sheet and an approximately starting price of AUD $54,000, the YU7 is a direct threat to BYD, Zeekr and Tesla.
At over 5 metres long the SUV is offered in three variants – Standard, Pro and Max.
The standard offers 235kW ...

Re: Donald Trump
All trade talks with Canada cancelled, new tariffs incoming, who couldn't have predicted that?

His huge ugly bill is going to the senate. I imagine the tax cuts will excite the stock market, pushing it to an irrational high. Then the tariffs and ...

Re: Climate Change

Re: Climate Change
The air and sea temperatures and the disappearing sea ice are by now familiar signs the climate problem could be much worse than we had assumed. Now this new report gives further evidence that the climate might be more sensitive to emissions than we thought. There's still a chance there might be ...

Re: Donald Trump
I'm starting to think trump won't commit troops to Iran, but i reckon he'll do some bombing and claim victory. There's just too much opposition to foreign wars from within maga itself. He does need continual emergency to function though, so the potential remains.
The factor that may be in play is ...

Re: What is Elon Musk up to now..
The latest Starship failure had me contemplating the strange mode of capitalism that Elon Musk operates in. He owns a bunch of shares in Tesla, which are, on paper, worth lots of money. He uses those shares as collateral to borrow money to buy and control other companies. The value of the shares is ...

Re: Gadgets
I'm pursuing power saving measures. I just did a minor reconfiguration of my audio-visual setup, so I can conveniently shut it off from the mains and avoid wasting standby power from the following devices:
TV
Surround sound receiver
Subwoofer
Bluray player
Nintendo Switch
VCR
Turntable
Raspberry Pi ...

I find it striking that Israel, Iran and Maga America all have theocratic motivations. They're also lead by, as the article headlines, 'angry old men'. It's right to question the sanity of each of them, as Tisdall does. As long as each of them remain in power, and with Putin watching on ...

Re: Donald Trump
Netanyahu is insane.
I remember when the world's most insane country, North Korea got nukes, and it was a disturbing moment. Iran, a candidate for the world's second most insane country, is well on the way. The already nuclear armed countries, including Israel, Russia and the US, are becoming ...
