The landscape of road taxation is shifting as Oregon and Utah take innovative steps to address the unique challenge posed by electric vehicles (EVs). In an effort to fairly fund road maintenance, these states are introducing GPS trackers for EVs, aiming to track miles driven and consequently impose a per-mile tax.

Windows 11 is about to start showing more ads, this time in Settings

"It’s no secret that Microsoft has been looking to increase advertising for its products within Windows 11, and investigation by Twitter user Albacore into recent Insider builds has found that the Settings Home page will soon start to present adverts for Microsoft 365 products in the near future. A banner asking users who aren’t subscribed to the platform to “Try Microsoft 365” shows at the top of the Home tab in Settings in the screenshot below."

#lmao @ this piece from the #bbc regarding #chemtrails. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-trending-62240071
oh, it's total bunk is it? total "conspiracy theory" eh? except the stuff acknowledged long time ago, even #biotrails. but none of it's happening since the 1950s and 1960s eh? lol. trust Alistair Coleman, "Disinformation specialist". lmao. XD too funny. gotta love that level of #investigativejournalism. lol. beyond incompetence. beyond neglect. is it's not possible to trot out a piece like that without bending over backwards to avoid the truth, and spin the wordings and article structure through cognitive dissonnance. heh, i needed another good laugh.

for it to be a conspiracy, you'd think it'd necessarily be a lot more covert. you can look up companies advertising their services for cloud seeding. amusingly, the phrase "cloud seeding" does not appear once in the article. well thanks Alistair Coleman for telling us what's the doubleplus goodthink overton window we're allowed. lol.
... i had to triple check... and it still seems incredulous to me, that the article genuinely was published 23 July 2022... not 1992. not 2002, not even 2012. just last year. ... at least 20 years since such services have been openly advertised. that's got to be something beyond just cognitive dissonance, right? that's gotta be... what... paid to spin implausible lies? some kind of serious dissorder of psyche?
it's not like you have to try hard to find many companies offering cloud seeding services. it's an effortless first page websearch. you don't have to dig. there's nothing cryptic about it. they get their services climbing high in search algorythm results. ... or am i somehow more crazy than i've considered so far, and are completely halucinating when seeing such results?
XD
if it's not my next level crazy, then you can go buy stocks on the stock markets in various weather modification and cloud seeding companies, read articles in all the usual financial news/advertising outlets promoting such companies, hear from their ceos/directors and advertising departments directly extoling the, not only virtues and advantages of their services, but the "necessity" for our times.
i wont bother plucking an assortment of them to link here for you (i dont think they deserve promotion), and instead i'll just leave it to you to #lookup the websearch results for yourself... or even just go outside more often, #lookup and play "chemtrail or contrail?" with yourself, with friends, with anyone in earshot.

that was such hilariously implausible disinformation propaganda from alistair coleman and the bbc.

may wanna look into #geoengineering more seriously than that farcical pantomime of implausibility.

if anything does take more digging deeper into websearches abot it, it may be the stuff about biotrails and experimenting on the spread of pathogens on the public [edit: the recent hubub about #candidaauris has me wondering if that were one of the ones i read about being biotrailed in 2015 or so] ... but, alistair coleman pointed out this has been done... XD ... so it's not like that's in denial and something to discover a new as a fresh revelation. lol. so loopy. but yeah, #dontlookup all the other times that's been done in various places since the 1950s/1960s, since that's the only time that was done, according to alistair coleman. or at least as i skim read it.

lemme know if (and how) i'm way off, grabbed the wrong end of the stick from my skim read of that piece.
was it intentional satire? is chemtrail denialism now the target of satirical roasting? is the position "disinformation specialist" a satirical joke intended to point out the absurd? or are people really that far gone in an orwellian hole, that it's to be taken seriously? XD or just him telling you he's doing disinformation?

... i was about to semi-rhetorically ask if people were that stupid and gullible to fall for that.... but then i remembered reading a piece earlier on today pointing out that some people do not even know stars are suns, or that the world isnt flat.

So... I just heard that the American "Woman's" soccer team will be paid a portion if what the mens team's winning...

The media is painting it as "profit sharing"

LOL. That's called "wealth redistribution" in my book.

But what a complete #feminism #fail

They not only need men, they need those men to succeed.

I can't even switch to a new web #browser #lol.

I'm stuck with an old version of #waterfox which keeps being less and less reliable for the "modern" web: I think it's some old JavaScript support, sites like #gitlab don't even display. I can't switch to a new browser such as ungoogled #chromium or new waterfox because firstly their appimages require new version of glibc which my OS doesn't have (so much for appimage "portability" #lmao), and secondly building from source has shown beyond my strength (the combination of billions of build systems and dependencies makes compilation extremely difficult, so much for software freedom). And of course, even if I could choose any browser, there simply isn't a nice one, every single one has a considerable amount of #bullshit, and sadly the #suckless ones lack support for essential addons such as adblock and sponsorblock for #youtube.
