Worst Of Both Worlds Edition
Top Story
- A California startup is offering subscriptions to electric vehicles. (BNN Bloomberg)
Not only will you own nothing, you won't be able to charge the car you don't own because the power grid will be down.
Tech News
- Canada and Germany have signed a deal to use wind power in Canada to produce hydrogen to ship to Germany to use as fuel. (CTV News)
This is enormously inefficient and generally stupid. They deserve what happens to them.
- A function added to new projects in Apple's Xcode 13.2 release punched a hole in every protection offered by MacOS. (Sector 7)
You won't believe this one stupid trick.
- I ordered a new computer case. (Hyte)
It's a decent case, though not what I'd normally buy, and overpriced because it's a special edition. But I found my collection of anime cels and felt like celebrating.
Disclaimer: Tenchi, El Hazard, Ranma, Urusei Yatsura, the original Oh My Goddess AMV, and at least one Sailor Moon cel with the background painting.

Yes, but if you install windmills on the ships carrying the hydrogen, you can make back all the energey lost in shipping pretty easily. Hell, if that greedy Dr. Dolittle would just let us clone his Pushmi-Pullyu we wouldn't need foccil fuuls at all.

That is quite a collection of cels!
BTW, if you ever run across a purported cell from the Beatles cartoon (Not Yellow Submarine), it's a fake. I know the guy who made it. It was sold in a convention art show as fan art, and then resold by the buyer as an original. Trouble is, the production house washed and reused all their cels. No real cels survived.

Yeah, I spent a fair bit on them at the time and I was starting to get stressed out that I'd packed almost everything and hadn't found them. (There are a couple that I separated out, but the main stash had gone missing.)
