    I didn’t know that careers could suffer from motion sickness...

    Has your career
    An inner ear?
    Oh dear, oh dear!
    Too much to hear ...

    It seems that my state is catching up with the high-mpg cars.

    EV cars see higher registration fees

    Much like the home PV installation; prices per kwh from utilities go up.

    A similar thing was experienced with a local water supplier here. A semiconductor plant closed down and everyone's rates went up. Someone has to pay for that infrastructure.

    Fortunately, Oregon also has a pay-for-miles-driven registration fee structure to run in parallel with the get-fleeced-all-at-once plan.

    I said it was coming.

    So they tax sunlight and water. When will they start taxing air?

    motorwear --> 'large number of motorway miles.'


    New words for me.

    I don't get the "buy copper" thing:

    Among the motor’s main attributes is the elimination both of rare earth permanent magnets and copper, both of which make end of life disposal more difficult.

    Electric buses: Why were trolleybuses ever scrapped?

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-51034523


    Because the the trolley bus used to separate from it's trolley too often and the poor old conductor had to use a long pole to put them back together.

    Not really much info on the, ahem, Ultium battery. More here:

    Still not much about the chemistry. The mechanics look like a looong prismatic cell.
