  • Pentagon is reinstalling portrait of Confederate General Robert E. Lee with slave

    Jump

  • The portrait was originally removed by Act of Congress. Military staff who reinstated the portrait are following an illegal order.

  • California's New Congressional Maps Would Add Five Democratic Seats, Offsetting Texas' Push

    Jump

  • And then the Supreme Court will overturn...Checkmate.

  • A New York court has temporarily blocked the city from installing a bike lane in response to a lawsuit from local businesses owners, who alleged it would compromise public safety

  • LOL..the support pillars are not that large. This is just concern-trolling on the part of Nimbys.

  • When Americans Fly Economy, They're Actually Paying for Someone Else to Fly Private

    Jump

  • A lot of the FAA fee is used to fund the various airport facilities, so yes it does make sense to charge on per-passenger basis.

  • Democrats Unveil Map Targeting California GOP House Members

    Jump

  • On what grounds?

    That it is bad for Republicans.

  • The Supreme Court will block this.

  • CATL announces sodium batteries that cost as little as $10/kWh, a massive price reduction compared to the current average of $115/kWh for lithium-ion batteries.

    Jump

  • I don’t know about LiFePo3, but LiFePO4 prices are dropping to the sub $100 level.

  • CATL announces sodium batteries that cost as little as $10/kWh, a massive price reduction compared to the current average of $115/kWh for lithium-ion batteries.

    Jump

  • Sodium batteries generally have poor round-trip efficiency. This won't be game-changer for home or solar use unless CATL can solve that problem.

  • Politicians in California want to remove bike lanes from the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a top official was driving his car

    Jump

  • No, it is not legal. This bike path is part of the Bay Trail, which was enacted by State legislation, and served as mitigation for environmental damage done by Caltrans highway work. The BCDC was specifically created by the legislature to ensure maximum feasible public access to the Bay. So voting to close the path violates any number of laws and policies.

    As for driving while distracted by the phone...yeah that's also illegal.

  • The European Union is introducing new brake-pad regulations that reduce dust pollution by 27 percent

    Jump

  • Oh I see. Sometimes these thread replies get confusing.

  • The European Union is introducing new brake-pad regulations that reduce dust pollution by 27 percent

    Jump

  • The second article you reference literally says the opposite -- that tires emit more particulate matter. Whether one is more toxic I have no idea, and I'm not seeing in the article where that is mentioned.

  • Texas and California joust for political advantage, with Trump power and US House majority in play

    Jump

  • I don't see how that is possible when the total number of NY+CA districts is only 78.

  • This line is called IBX. It is the most transformative NYC transit project in modern history. Today, the Governor of New York announced that IBX is moving forward.

    Jump

  • Just those 3 new stops have double the ridership of the entire IBX. When SAS phase 2 is added, the difference will be more like 5x.

    Jump

  • Well obviously the 2nd Ave Subway for starters.

  • This line is called IBX. It is the most transformative NYC transit project in modern history. Today, the Governor of New York announced that IBX is moving forward.

    Jump

  • I mean it's a good project, but not even close to being the most impactful NYC transit project in modern history.

  • Trump administration sues California over egg prices

    Jump

  • Trump should focus on Ohio instead:

  • "You need to foist that limpy bitch onto someone else!"

  • New York City has sent over 6000 cyclists to criminal court. Some say they are being treated unfairly.
