#automobiles — Public Fediverse posts

Tidbit here about EVs in this LA times article:

"...California’s EV adoption keeps climbing, with nearly 1 in 6 new cars fully electric, robust used sales and hundreds of millions in state incentives replacing lost federal rebates...."

(California) "now has more public chargers than gas pumps"

C'est vrai que l' #immatriculation des #automobiles a réglé sans exception aucune toutes les #infractions sur nos routes.

Et elles ne provoquent plus aucun #mort chaque année en 🇫🇷 et ne sont pas facteur de danger à chaque #intersection.

Vous voulez #sécuriser #rues et intersections ?

Vous voulez moins de #victimes de la #route dans nos hôpitaux ?

Vous voulez des #économies au budget de l'État (#hôpital, usure des routes, plus de construction de nouvelles #autoroutes) ?

Vous voulez mieux utiliser nos ressources telles que les gardiens de la paix ?

Supprimez les automobiles !

Les résultats seront bien plus spectaculaires qu'en immatriculant les #vélos.

Big Picture Science for June 08, 2026: Vroom!

REPEAT
Self-driving cars, once a thing of science fiction, have become a reality in a handful of cities across the country. As our vehicles gain autonomy, they may provoke a profound shift not unlike the introduction of the first car in the late1800s and raise the question of whether the human driver will soon be obsolete. For a glimpse into the future of self-driving cars, we take a spin through the history of the automobile, from the Model T to the driverless taxi-cab. Along the way, we explore the rise of American manufacturing and the unmistakable but unexpected way in which we have bonded to our four-wheeled companions.

Guests:

* Witold Rybczynski – Professor emeritus of architecture and design at the University of Pennsylvania and author of the book, The Driving Machine: A Design History of the Car
* Timothy B Lee – Technology journalist and writer of the newsletter, Understanding AI

Delhi Pollution: Mopping Floor With Tap Open!

It is noticeable that no authority wants to tackle the powerful automobile or construction lobbies, both of whom deny major responsibility and point fingers elsewhere.

- Compared to the #tech #industry, #innovation in #industries involving physical products and manufacturing processes, like #energy, #steel, and #automobiles, is much more difficult and capital-intensive.
- The real #heroes of #innovation are the largely unknown #scientists, #chemists, and #engineers working on incremental improvements to #technologies like #solar panels, #batteries, and #heat #pumps. (3/5)
