Climate change has definitely shown that doomerism is a viable strat for pissing people off into taking real meaningful action on an issue.

day 2 of bike ownership. it still owns. went on a short ride to scout out a good way to get to Aldi. I was able to keep an average speed of 10mph which isn't too bad I don't think although I'm still terribly out of shape but riding frequently will fix that. hopefully it cools down soon because I'm definitely not used to riding in 90 degree heat.

do people buy mirrors for bikes, I felt naked without being able to see behind me without turning my head

Insane Tesla fanboy blog that's just as biased as all of them, but Tesla is shipping a ton of cars now and people are buying them: https://electrek.co/2023/07/25/tesla-now-outsells-toyota-in-california/

Also, even if consumers won't buy them, Hertz will: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/14/hertz-is-going-electric-with-big-implications-for-ev-and-auto-market.html

Hertz's fleet is pretty big and they say they're going to be 1/4 EVs in 2024, probably accelerating rapidly. They already bought a fuckton of Model 3s and are continuing to buy more. Of course, the "why" doesn't have a lot to do with EVs being more efficient or better for the environment or anything, but because at scale Hertz can buy a Tesla a hell of a lot cheaper than they can buy a Camry for. I'm curious if Teslas becoming the default cheap rental car option are going to do brand damage to them like it did to GM and Chrysler. A lot of peoples first EV experience is going to be a dinged up, abused rental Tesla that gets handed over to them at 20% charge.
