The study found that EVs produce fewer non-exhaust emissions in heavy traffic situations. However, when roads are clearer, their greater weight can lead to increased particulate pollution compared to gasoline vehicles.

EVs do have one downside brought by their extra weight, more brutal torque delivery and superior power compared to gas cars: their tires wear out faster. This is also a source of emissions that affects air quality. However, while EVs can’t escape the physics brought by their extra heft, their tires don’t wear out anywhere near as quickly as some deliberately misleading headlines might have you believe, although there isn’t a definitive number stating how that’s different from a combustion car.

They shed less particulate matter overall, but they still wear through tires faster. Both of those articles are about how great regenerative breaking are, and don’t say that electric cars produce less tire dust.

So hey, what are the actual alternatives to Visa and Mastercard, especially if you live in the US?

I’m assuming he’s just incapable of understanding the consequences of his actions, because usually there aren’t any.

If you have the time for all that you might as well join the striking workers outside instead of just calling in sick

I just opened up CoMaps because I never actually checked before, and it is in fact the Gulf of Mexico, while google and apple both have “Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)”. I’m also learning that CoMaps is on the app store, so I guess my takeaway is you should try not to use the default apps on your device.

Zubat, Meowth, and Voltorb are all first evolutions though, and only Zubat even has a third evolution.

I’m guessing you missed the “Euthanize spider” slide with a little snowflake icon.

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a nonprofit focused on combating antisemitism, defended tech billionaire Elon Musk’s “awkward” gesture during a Monday celebratory event which some critics panned as a fascist salute.

“This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety,” the ADL wrote in a Monday post on Musk’s social platform X. “It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge.”

From the Hill if anyone else wanted to know more.

If you’re just going to copy and paste from an NPR article, you might as well provide a link while you’re at it.

Only if you’re counting the Coast Guard and Space Force (and maybe others I might be forgetting). So don’t do that, it would make Donjuanme wrong.

I actually don’t remember them doing this. And a quick search shows me Joe Biden Is Risking World War III, Former Clinton Adviser Warns about intervening between Iran and Israel (but I don’t know that the former Clinton advisor is a MAGA republican), and Ukraine, NATO Allies Urge Joe Biden to Drop ‘World War III’ Red Line about how Biden was saying that sending troops to Ukraine would start WWIII, which again wasn’t from republicans.

Israel is widely believed to possess nuclear weapons. Estimates of Israel’s stockpile range between 90 and 400 nuclear warheads, and the country is believed to possess a nuclear triad of delivery options: by F-15 and F-16 fighters, by Dolphin-class submarine-launched cruise missiles, and by the Jericho series of intermediate to intercontinental range ballistic missiles.

Israel maintains a policy of deliberate ambiguity, never officially denying nor admitting to having nuclear weapons, instead repeating over the years that “Israel will not be the first country to introduce nuclear weapons to the Middle East”. However, in November 2023, amid the Gaza war, the junior Heritage Minister Amihai Eliyahu publicly called for dropping a nuclear bomb over Gaza, which some took to be a tacit admission that Israel possesses such a capability.

I wouldn’t be so sure of that.

Iran said it was retaliation for the Israeli bombing of the Iranian embassy in Damascus on 1 April,[17] which killed two Iranian generals.

Iran claimed that the attack was an act of “self-defense”[19][20] in retaliation for Israel’s assassinations of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC general Abbas Nilforoushan.

Does it change anything if both of those attacks were after an Iranian embassy was bombed and an assassination in Iran’s capital took place?

You may not hear about her much, but that doesn’t mean Harry Potter isn’t getting a new show on HBO next year. Clearly, JK Rowling is still “in the cultural spotlight” and making plenty of money off of the thing this post is asking you not to support.

Oh. I guess I read that wrong as “willful childishness” and thought they were just being kind of petty at the end.

Did you see them drive en masse the wrong way through red lights?

This shit happens all the time everywhere? Really. Everywhere, cars are just all going the same direction, ignoring every traffic law en masse with no cops doing anything?

How is this relevant to the point at all?

They are acting extremely unsafe for no reason.

I think you’re a little too focused on the one very specific way the bicycles were being unsafe in the video. Every example they listed was another way that cars are driven irresponsibly all the time, not just during a critical mass event where the point is to flood the streets with bicycles.

No, these were both in the same, single lane roundabout. And there shouldn’t have been any confusion since the roundabout has been there for a while now. It was just drivers being reckless and careless, putting my life in danger by not obeying traffic laws.

I’ve had two close calls with roundabouts. One where someone didn’t look before entering and another where some tried to pass me inside the circle when they wanted to exit and I didn’t.

You could raise your shield and have the guardian destroy the shield but deal no damage to you, and you could also parry while your shield is raised to reflect the beam back. BotW had a parry button you could use while your shield was raised.
