@NathanBomey Dream on. Way too optimistic. As long as they are a p.i.t.a. to charge adoption will be slow and its not just about adding more charging stations. Its the slow process and that isn't going to change much. The tech is what it is. Hybrids make a hell of a lot more sense.
@7im By all means lets make lifestyle changes and chase after the impossible dream of "zero carbon emissions" by 2050. Choking down our 15% global contribution will really help when China with its 30% does whatever the hell it wants. The only way to do it is nuclear - yeah, likely.
@StarTribune The biggest trauma was the innocent property owners they vandalized/burned/looted. They're the ones who should be bracing for a fresh wave of trauma.
@unionista27@sacbee_news Update Cal-OSHA requirements. Temperature checks, masks and gloves required for food processing plants. The majority of cases in North State though are coming from family and other social gatherings of those who don't live together. A little common sense might help too.
@edit4life@sacbee_news If one has issues with a historical figure that's been honored with a statue there are other ways to go about its removal - like petitioning your elected representatives. This needs to stop. A relative handful of vandals don't speak for everyone in their destruction of property.
@StarTribune And yet they pee and moan about Mt. Rushmore.๐ If you're going to condemn large outdoor gatherings condemn them all otherwise your a double-standard dealing hypocrite.
@sacbee_news This is a good thing. Mexico has 250,000 confirmed cases, 30,000 confirmed deaths and that is widely believed to be vastly undercounted. We don't need them here.
@StarTribune I'm sorry for the business and homeowners who lost their property, but this sits squarely on the weak, ineffectual leadership of the governor and the mayor/city council of MPLS. Elections have consequences.
@mizgooglehead @flyyylotus California is one of the most Democrat states in the country (like two to one). The bulk of the new cases are those under 30. The bulk of these counties are Democrat and heavily minority (Los Angeles, Santa Clara, Sacto). Now who do you think caused this again?
@flyyylotus The majority of new cases are under 30. The majority of those counties are heavily Democrat and minority. Middle aged and older white people (the bulk of conservatives in this state) were not the problem. Look in the mirror to see who is.
@StarTribune So? Local officials and governors were encouraging the same thing with protests nationwide. Apply the ire evenly now or don't do it at all.
@WCCO How would they even know? Our contact tracing sucks in this county and do you honestly expect any of them to answer truthfully? Or even know who they were around while doing it? What about the gatherings before and after and transportation there? What a load of ....
