"A noteworthy part of the plan is to pause the electric vehicle (EV) mandate to meet a demand by the auto industry. The strategy waives the mandate for the 2026 model year and launches a 60-day review of the policy."
"Review" is a euphemism for dismantling it later, I think. I'm not sure how anyone ever expected it to work without a widespread charging network in place. Single fam detached garage charging I suppose, but that seemed unlikely to be sufficient.
I sure wonder what public cloud could possibly satisfy "buy Canadian."
meanwhile in British Columbia "have installed charging stations at 30 locations along provincial highways, adding to the over 5,000 charging stations in the province."
"Starting Aug. 15, 2025, drivers of eligible plug-in hybrid or battery-electric vehicles will no longer need to display an OK decal to use designated HOV lanes"
The Province of B.C. is making it easier for electric-vehicle (EV) drivers to access high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, reflecting the popularity of electric vehicles in B.C.

Internxt is a cloud storage service alternative to Google Drive. It’s built for absolute privacy and military-grade security with zero-knowledge file storage.
Le passkey stanno sostituendo le password e sono già supportate da Google, Apple, Microsoft e molti siti. Sono più sicure, resistenti al phishing e facili da usare: si basano su crittografia a chiave pubblica e autenticazione biometrica o PIN. @tecnologia @sicurezza buff.ly/dEVSDNe
@cipper @sicurezza Come spiega l’articolo le passkey, come le password, sono specifiche per ogni provider/OS/app ma funzionano in modo più sicuro ed efficace. La sicurezza dell’autenticazione serve a noi per controllare i nostri dati.
@sicurezza conosco il concetto di passkey, ma onestamente, dipendere da una azienda per l'accesso a svariati servizi internet, anche essenziali, non mi sento affatto più sicuro, ma più ingabbiato.
La sicurezza la ottengo con un password manager serio, tipo keepassxc che non si affida al cloud, e con la 2FA nel caso di servizi critici come qualli bancari.
Inoltre queste aziende sono spesso totalmente inaffidabili in termini di servizi offerti e di privacy.
🚨AI propaganda factories🏭 are now operational. My study shows how small, open-weight models can run as fully automatic generators in influence campaigns. mechanising personas, engagement, cadence. Possible for State, non-state, and micro-actors, including and bedroom ones. This is a wake-up call. This has implications for AI Safety. Alignment in frontier, closed-source models won't save you. 💥 Next generation information warfare.
AI-powered influence operations can now be executed end-to-end on commodity hardware. We show that small language models produce coherent, persona-driven political messaging and can be evaluated automatically without human raters.

Keeping with the documentary theme, I'm watching the 2020 sequel to the excellent 2003 film The Corporation. Entitled The New Corporation: The Unfortunately Necessary Sequel, it explores the "corporation social responsibility" gambit and the normalisation of disaster capitalism.
If you can afford to pay to see it, please help the filmmakers fund future work. If you can't, magnet links for downloading it with BitTorrent can be found here;
If you haven't seen the 2003 original, made in the wake of the Enron and WorldCom scandals and only 5 years before the corpogenic Global Financial Crisis, get thee to the archives;

Alfa: Honestly the idea of being an Affini seems remarkably comfy to me. I think they go too far with the noncon, that should just be for particularly subby pets and when pets risk hurting themselves, and the restrictions on swearing seem mostly silly, but overall that seems like a way that I might enjoy being
It seems a bit like it's being written by subs who want to have the Affini restrict something that they do regularly so they can feel the restriction a bit more. I also think this is why the Affini always do such a bad job of trying to build trust with rebels they capture. I feel like sprouts probably shouldn't swear, but that can probably be stopped simply by giving them a healthy environment, and it's fine if adults want to swear
yeah, it feels like it's being written by, to our perspective, subs who see submitting as....... we don't know, a lot of it is quite.... unsubtle? there are better, more subtle, less overtly ...... something... ways of doing that. getting an entity to do what you want and making them think it was their idea, type of thing
Like, the following phrases, when coupled with the corresponding action, would pretty easily get Nova to submit: "Sit on my lap and I'll brush your hair" "If you're having trouble deciding I can just decide for you" "If you get scared I can hold you" And, like, why use more force than necessary? If someone wants to be overpowered, then sure, overpower them, but, like, it's completely unnecessary for making someone who's already subby get into subspace.
The one thing I do kinda want to try forcing Nova into is age regression, but that's not going to be physical force, just treating her like a child while using her name often enough that we don't just switch to Sierra

The biofuels statement misleading political noise to distract and deny.

Canadian agriculture relies heavily on nitrogen fertilizers, there will be little if any less net "carbon release" through agrofuels, until fertilizer production becomes carbon neutral or negative.
