Former President Barack Obama responds to President Trump criticizing his comparison of Trump's Oval Office decor to The Cheesecake Factory: "I am not making this up. He is literally doing arts and crafts while we are fighting a war and trying to deal with out-of-control prices."

EU gas is above €90/MWh, its highest since Dec 2022. Brent is above $115, its highest since June 2022. The EU has already paid €100bn+ extra for oil and gas since Hormuz closed. Not one extra molecule. Best defence: electrify. janrosenow.substack.com/p/eu…

NEW: Hormuz reminded fuel importers that buying energy cargo by cargo means importing every price shock. In TIME, María Mendiluce and I argue the response will decide who becomes the electrostates of the next decade. time.com/article/2026/10/27/…

After months of disengaging FSD at this exact intersection because it gets it wrong about 80% of the time, I finally decided to let it handle it today. There was no traffic around, so I wanted to see what it would actually do without me intervening. And just as expected… it made a completely illegal maneuver. Same mistake, months later. This really needs fixing, @TeslaSI @teslaeurope GPS: maps.app.goo.gl/H6B7peNmtn1Z…

Do EVs and heat pumps deliver no carbon savings until the grid is fully decarbonised? A recent paper claimed so. It's wrong. Even running entirely on gas-fired power, both cut emissions by about half. Our open-access response. iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

Paris gelingt, was Berlin fehlt. Die Stadt für Fahrradverkehr konsequent umzubauen. Weniger CO2, bessere Gesundheit durch weniger Feinstaub und mehr Bewegung, schneller, kostengünstiger.
Paris macht einfach weiter! Der Nachfolger von Anne Hidalgo und neue Bürgermeister Emmanuel Grégoire hat heute seine Fahrrad-Pläne für seine erste Amtszeit bis 2032 vorgestellt. Hier seine 5 wichtigsten Maßnahmen: - 140 Kilometer an neuen Radwegen - 220 Kilometer neue Fahrradstraßen in Einbahnstraßen - 420 neue fahrradfreundliche und sichere Kreuzungen - 200 Mio. Euro in den Ausbau der Radinfrastruktur - Aufbau einer eigenen Polizeieinheit, um gegen motorisierte Gewalt gegenüber Fahrradfahrern vorzugehen🙏 So schön zu sehen wie in Paris der lebenswerte Umbau der Stadt unbeirrt vorangeht und wie die 🇫🇷 Hauptstadt immer mehr zu einer wunderbaren Fahrradstadt wird❤️

Russia continues to bomb Ukraine and kill civilians every night. Meanwhile, the FBI director is in Russia tweeting “From Russia, with Love.” Absolutely disgraceful.

Well, it’s the German authorities who decided, so I’m afraid the other brands will have to comply.
FSD už je v Evropě minulostí. Nově se jmenuje Tesla Assisted Driving - TAD. 😄 A když už máme TAD, napadlo mě, jak by podobná logika dopadla u ostatních značek: Tesla Assisted Driving = TAD Mercedes Assisted Driving = MAD Škoda Assisted Driving = SAD BMW Assisted Driving = BAD Tak nevím… TAD z toho pořád vychází docela dobře. 😂 Která zkratka sedí nejvíc? 👇 #Tesla #TAD #FSD #Elektromobilita

EVs in the UK are "running out of juice"...except they're not..and never were. Again and again, critics have doubted EVs, yet the market simply keeps on growing. [Original graphic by Carbon Brief, annotations added later]
