Keep in mind that kremlin still runs massive campaigns to make you think Biden will loose and is unable to run the country.

But he is not alone, this is not a monarchy, there is a full team behind him to make great things for the country.

damn you just reminded me my mom bought a basic calculator with tiny solar panel 25 years ago : it is still working !

damn wild trees crossing street

They will if they are forced by regulation : 10y mandatory warrantee, right to repair, standardized swappable batteries, spare parts production for 20y…

but we need politics who set up such regulations

How is it going in your new home since 7 months ?

Here are some ideas for everyday life, if you still need it :

• in the bathroom :

use a bidet and cloth wipes

use solid soap/shampoo (can be the same), solid toothpaste (or learn to do it with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide)

electric toothbrush (more efficient according to my dentist and you throw away only the head, that can be re-used for cleaning works

reusable accessories like cloth wipes for face, ear scraper, tongue scraper

• in the kitchen

cook from raw materials as much as possible, learn how to use legumes in as much receipts as you can (main dishes but also appetizers and desserts)

create your own cookbook with receipt you like

learn how to do fermentation products and yogurts

buy in bulk stores and farmers markets to avoid packagings

compost

re use bottles and tin cans as flower plants

build a solar oven, a Norwegian Cooking Pot and a Desert Fridge (construction plans can be found on low-tech lab)

and enjoy your life

Waymo is going full kamikaze drone on Pick-up, next step will be SUV ?

Maybe this is a solution for oversized vehicules

Yeah that was what I was thinking : in America, land of the lawyers, can’t you sue someone who make such important threats ?

Yes, exactly my thoughts… it is usual ratefor used cars

Yes, every amenities should be at 15 min walk/bike max, that is the only way.

so now in top of entertainement systems on videos, soundsystems, drivers will be distracted with bot conversations. Awesome.

thanks vw that is very useful… How to pay attention to the road, and others road users already fragile (pedestrians, cyclists, motocylists) on a 1,5T rolling living-room-sofa ?

A car is already too much considered as personnal property and “vital space”, yeah it is a good idea to give drivers more of this “personnal bubble” feeling. /s if it was not explicit enough

Maybe you are lucky with your car, and know how to maintain yourself. We spent already 3000$ on repairs on our 2010 car and we have it for only 5 years. And there is more to be done (dampers, belts, corrosion on exhaust…). Even with knowledge and equipment (which I do not have) engines are complicated to maintain, at least here in europe with our anti pollution regulations, older motors are more robust but are now banned from cities. EV is a good solution for city/suburbs people with small range needs as less maintainance is needed. Better solution is bike and trains…

Ahah it is ready to take the job of pur politicians

“There is a joke here that all poor people are driving electric cars, and all the rich people are driving petrol cars,” says Malakhovsky. “Tesla is a common-people, popular car because it’s very cheap in maintenance.”

yeah, only a joke unfortunately, later on the article they give the exemple of a guy who spent 24k$ for a totaled Y + 25k$ for repairs + 4k$ for batttery change… because the guy was tired of paying 400$/month for gaz, now he is paying 10-100$ for charging. This is even more expensive than a new one

Then we should burn them

So you are afraid of cars so you take your own car… I fully understand that but it is all the problem.

We have to constantly remind drivers that road are for everyone, and not only to go full speed.

Here they painted bikes on roads and put speed limit at 30kmh so it is better, drivers seems more conscious, but we still see too much distracted people that don’t realize they can easily kill someone just by not looking constantly at the road.

Yeah it is still expensive “for a bike” but you save on gas, insurance, maintenance, and health!
